Zinc Oxide (Zinc Oxide)

Zinc Oxide is a mineral compound widely used in cosmetic and dermatological formulations for its protective, soothing and purifying benefits. Acting as a physical UV filter, it sits on the skin’s surface and reflects or scatters ultraviolet radiation, helping to shield the skin from sun damage, photoaging and irritation caused by environmental exposure. In addition to its photoprotective action, Zinc Oxide offers mild antibacterial and astringent properties, making it beneficial for sensitive, irritated or acne-prone skin. It is commonly found in sunscreens, baby care products, calming creams, spot treatments and mattifying powders. Thanks to its excellent skin tolerance and versatile functionality, Zinc Oxide contributes to a healthier, more balanced and protected complexion.
