A UV Blocking and Soothing Ingredient

You’ve probably seen this ingredient in calamine lotions and diaper rash creams. Zinc oxide is a white, water-insoluble powder that occurs naturally as the mineral zincite. This natural mineral has a long history of use in skin care. For millennia, people used this medicinal ingredient in healing salves to treat wounds and skin damage like burns and scars.

Today, zinc oxide is a key active ingredient in many sun protection products, and for good reason. This mineral is one of the best sunscreen ingredients currently available. Zinc oxide provides broad-spectrum sun protection against both UVA and UVB rays. Since it’s a natural ingredient, zinc oxide skin care products don’t harm your health or irritate your eyes and skin.

In addition to its UV protecting properties, zinc oxide ingredients also have anti-inflammatory effects on the skin. The soothing action of zinc oxide is the reason why the ingredient is commonly used in many anti-itch and rash creams. The topical application of zinc oxide products can help calm acne-prone and redness-prone skin. This can help reduce the appearance of skin discoloration and give you a clearer complexion.
