About Zinc Oxide

Discover the mineral strength of zinc oxide

Welcome a skincare ally that works at the surface and at your skin’s resilience. Zinc oxide sits on the skin to reflect and absorb the sun’s rays, while also forming a soothing barrier that helps calm irritation and support a healthier-looking complexion.

Find your perfect zinc oxide formulation

Whether you’re looking for a mineral sunscreen with broad-spectrum protection, a restorative barrier cream for reactive skin, or a calming overnight treatment for redness, zinc oxide offers versatility. Choose blends tailored for your skin type — light, mattified textures for oily skin, richer creams for dry or post-procedure skin.

Personalised advice on incorporating it daily

If you’re new to zinc oxide, start by replacing your current sunscreen with a zinc oxide formula or integrating a targeted barrier cream into your evening routine. Always apply in sufficient amount, reapply as needed for sun-exposure, and pair with soothing hydrators and antioxidants for optimal results. To address layering concerns or skin tone challenges (such as white cast), test on your jawline and under makeup. If you’d like personalised guidance, feel free to contact our expert team, explore deeper insights on our read our blog’s ingredient hub or take our free online skin test to find your ideal fit.

Expert Tip for Zinc Oxide

"Zinc oxide is a powerful ally in your skincare routine, especially for calming blemish-prone or oily skin. For the best results, use a zinc oxide-infused product to balance oil production and soothe inflammation. If you’re dealing with acne or sensitivity, try layering a zinc -based serum or cream over your cleanser to target problem areas and reduce redness. This ensures your skin feels calm and refreshed, making it perfectly prepped for moisturisers and SPF."

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of using zinc oxide for my skin?

Zinc oxide is a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory ingredient known for its ability to help balance oil production, fight acne, and promote skin healing. It can also protect your skin from harmful environmental stressors, reduce redness, and improve overall skin tone.

Can zinc oxide help with acne?

Yes, zinc oxide is widely recognised for its acne-fighting properties. It helps to regulate oil production in the skin, reduces inflammation, and can even speed up the healing process of acne lesions. Many products with zinc oxide for acne control can leave your skin clearer and more balanced over time.

Is zinc oxide good for sensitive skin?

Zinc oxide is often recommended for sensitive skin due to its calming and anti-inflammatory properties. It can help reduce redness and irritation, making it an excellent choice for people with conditions like rosacea or general skin sensitivity.

How does zinc oxide support healthy skin?

Zinc oxide plays a key role in collagen production and wound healing, which helps to maintain skin elasticity and promote a smooth, youthful appearance. It also supports the skin’s natural barrier function, keeping it protected and hydrated.

Can I use zinc oxide skincare products every day?

Yes, many zinc oxide skincare products are gentle enough for daily use. Depending on your skin type and the product, zinc can be used in your morning and evening routines to support long-term skin health.

What types of skin issues can zinc oxide help with?

Zinc oxide is particularly effective for managing acne, eczema, rosacea, and general skin irritation. Its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties help to soothe and heal the skin, making it suitable for a wide range of skin concerns.

Can zinc oxide be used in combination with other skincare products?

Absolutely! Zinc oxide works well with other ingredients like vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and retinol. When combined with these ingredients, it enhances their effectiveness and helps create a balanced skincare routine. However, it’s important to introduce products gradually and monitor how your skin reacts.
