MDSolarSciences Mineral Crème Sunscreen SPF 50 1.7 fl oz — Zinc Oxide Mineral, Sheer Matte Water-Resistant

MDSolarSciences Mineral Crème SPF 50 is a lightweight, zinc-oxide mineral sunscreen that delivers broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection with a sheer, matte finish and minimal to no white cast.

This silky, water-resistant formula was developed by dermatology experts to sit comfortably under or over makeup while helping blur imperfections and resist shine. It uses micronized zinc oxide and titanium dioxide for physical sun protection, paired with antioxidants such as vitamin C, green tea and pomegranate to help the skin look healthy and refreshed. The non-irritating, oil-free texture is suitable for sensitive skin and can be used on adults and children aged six months and older.

How does this sunscreen feel on skin and layer with makeup?

The texture is thin and silky, absorbing quickly into skin to create a soft-focus matte surface that works as a primer or a standalone sunscreen. It doesn’t leave a heavy residue and is formulated to minimize visible white cast for most skin tones. Makeup applies smoothly over the finished surface for a polished look.

• Sheer matte finish that reduces shine and blurring imperfections
• Lightweight enough to wear under foundation or alone
• Non-greasy, oil-free formula that absorbs quickly

What active ingredients provide sun protection and how long does it last?

Broad-spectrum protection comes from micronized zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, which sit on the skin to reflect and scatter UVA and UVB rays. The formula is rated SPF 50 and is water-resistant for up to 80 minutes, supporting outdoor activities when applied and reapplied as directed. For ongoing protection, reapply after heavy sweating, water exposure, or towel drying.

• Micronized zinc oxide and titanium dioxide as physical blockers
• Water resistance up to 80 minutes when used properly

Is this product suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

The formula is non-irritating and oil-free, designed not to clog pores so it’s compatible with many sensitive and acne-prone skin types.

What additional skincare benefits does the Mineral Crème offer?
