TENDER LOVING CARE
DERMATOLOGICALLY TESTED
FOR SENSITIVE SKIN

For All Skin Types

Experience superior sun protection with a silky-smooth touch. This fragrance- free lotion is powered exclusively by Zinc Oxide, providing a safe and effective mineral shield-free of chemical UV filters.

Unlike traditional mineral sunscreens, its creamy texture is effortlessly absorbed with several massage motions without leaving a heavy white cast on the skin making it perfect for daily wear-even under makeup.

Infused with a soothing blend of Bisabolol and Allantoin, plus potent antioxidants such as Vitamin E (Toco-pherol) and Hydroxyacetophenone, this formula helps prevent free radical damage essential during sun exposure.

Replenishing seed oils and phytosterols reinforce the skin‘s natural barrier, while Dead Sea minerals enhance long-lasting moisture retention. The unique water- in-oil emulsion resists wash-off, locking in softness and elasticity for all-day comfort.

How to Use: Apply generously to face and neck before sun exposure. Gently massage in any initial white tint, which disappears within seconds, leaving skin smooth and protected. Reapply as needed based on individual sun sensitivity.
