Light Airy SPF

Light & Airy SPF

UV-US-23-36148-80

Our Light & Airy SPF is designed to be lightweight and joyful while ensuring sun protection. This formula features Z-COTE® Sheer, a naturally derived liquid dispersion of Zinc Oxide. Z-COTE® Sheer delivers UV protection suitable for daily routines without leaving an undesirable white cast. Addition of our natural O/W emulsifier, Emulgade® Verde 10MS provides strong emulsifying and great sensory properties. Lastly, the formula is rounded out with the addition of Verdessence™ Alginate that leaves skin feeling smooth and supple. This multi-talented natural polymer is derived from algae. It’s versatile enough to work as a rheology modifier and sensory enhancer.
