DESCRIPTION

Smidge Daily Face & Body Sunscreen is an SPF 40 mineral sunscreen for everyday sun protection, made in New Zealand with just seven naturally derived ingredients. Non-nano zinc oxide (22%) is its only UV filter, giving broad spectrum protection from UVA and UVB.

There is no water in the formula, so it applies like a soft balm rather than a lotion: warm a pea-sized amount in your palms and it melts into the skin and blends to a natural finish. That smidge is enough for your face, and the same again covers each arm or leg. It is fragrance free and preservative free, vegan and cruelty free, and gentle on sensitive skin and suitable for children.

It comes in recyclable aluminium tins: 30g to keep in a pocket or travel bag, 70g for everyday use, and 140g for families and full body cover. Smidge is a wāhine-led New Zealand social enterprise that gives 2% of its revenue to ocean conservation and education.

Tested to AS/NZS 2604:2021. Always read the label and follow the directions for use.

Ingredients

Active ingredient: non-nano zinc oxide 22%.

Other ingredients: Butyrospermum parkii (shea) butter, caprylic/capric triglyceride, candelilla cera (vegan wax), Cocos nucifera (coconut) oil, polyglyceryl-2 dipolyhydroxystearate, polyglyceryl-3 diisostearate.

Please check the manufacturer's label before use, as formulations can change.

Instructions

Warm a pea-sized amount in your palms, then smooth gently across the skin; there is no need to rub hard. A pea-sized amount covers the face; use at least the same again for each arm, each leg and so on until all exposed skin is covered. Apply generously and wait 20 minutes before going into the sun. Reapply at least every 2 hours, and straight after swimming or towel drying. Sunscreen is one part of sun protection: use it with a hat, sunglasses, clothing and shade.
