SWOX Zinc Sunscreen SPF 50 White

Zinc Sunscreen SPF 50 White – Ultimate Face Protection

SWOX Zinc Sunscreen SPF 50 is a 100% mineral zinc oxide sunscreen developed for extreme conditions – water sports, skiing, alpinism, and prolonged sun exposure. The only UV filters in the formula are mineral – zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, which reflect UV rays immediately upon application, without chemical filters and without skin penetration.

This white zinc sunscreen has a visible, classic white formula that stays visible on the skin – ultimate face protection in conditions where every percent of UV protection counts. Apply thick on exposed areas (nose, cheeks, ears, forehead, shoulders), where the sun hits hardest.

SWOX zinc oxide sunscreen is extremely water-resistant and long-lasting – stays on the skin even after hours in the water or on snow. Without fragrances, parabens, oxybenzone, or dyes. Reef-safe, dermatologically approved.

Available in 20 ml compact size for travel and 50 ml for extended use.

Composition and How Zinc Oxide Sunscreen Works

SWOX zinc oxide sunscreen SPF 50 is based on a combination of two mineral UV filters:

• Zinc Oxide – physical barrier with broad-spectrum protection (UVA + UVB), known for its soothing effect on the skin
• Titanium Dioxide – physical barrier, primarily for UVB and part of the UVA spectrum

Both mineral filters work immediately upon application and are not absorbed into the skin. Zinc oxide sunscreen is traditionally the strongest mineral protection that dermatologists recommend for exposed areas and the most demanding conditions.

The formula does not contain: oxybenzone, octinoxate, fragrances, parabens, alcohol, or dyes. Dermatologically approved.

How to Use Zinc Sunscreen SPF 50

Apply zinc sunscreen thick on exposed areas – nose, shoulders, cheeks, ears, forehead. Apply 15 minutes before sun exposure and reapply every 2 hours, always after swimming, sweating, or towel-drying.

For everyday protection of the entire face and body, we recommend SWOX Sunscreen Lotion with Mineral Filters SPF 50, and for travel SWOX Mineral Sunscreen Stick SPF 50.

Why Choose SWOX?

SWOX is a German brand founded in 2009 by surfers and snowboarders who experienced firsthand that most sunscreens aren't made for real sports conditions. They started developing formulas that last through long hours in the water, don't sting the eyes, and don't leave a greasy film on gear.

Today, SWOX sunscreens are used by some of the world's best surfers, kiters, beach volleyball players, and runners – Jordy Smith, Camilla Kemp, Charlotte van Berkum, Susi Mai, Alberto Rondina, Cinja Tillmann, Pauline Pichlmair, and others.

SWOX does not use oxybenzone or octinoxate – synthetic filters that demonstrably harm coral reefs. Sports sun protection with no compromise on ingredients.
