Zinc-oxide
INCI Name: Zinc Oxide
In cosmetics, zinc oxide is a versatile ingredient known primarily for its skin-protective and soothing properties. It is commonly used in sunscreens as a physical, mineral-based UV filter, reflecting both UVA and UVB rays to protect the skin from sun damage. Zinc oxide is also found in products designed for sensitive or irritated skin due to its calming and anti-inflammatory properties.
Additionally, it is effective in providing a matte finish, making it a popular choice in products for oily or acne-prone skin. Its gentle, non-comedogenic nature makes it suitable for daily use in various formulations.
