Zinc has a 300-year safety record for use on the skin! This is a 325-micron white powder - and not in nanoparticles! Zinc Oxide has wonderful astringent properties and a great soothing effect for use in many skin preparations. It physically works to provide up to 28 times the skin's natural protection against harmful UVA & UVB rays according to publish peer peer-reviewed evidence. On top of this, it is an inert ingredient, often used to thicken lotions and creams. For sunscreening, depending on the percentage you use in your cream, lotion or balm, it hypothetically could raise your naturally SPF 15 lotion or cream to SPF 25 - 35.
