ZO Skin Health Sunscreen + Primer Broad-Spectrum SPF 30

ZO Skin Health Sunscreen + Primer Broad-Spectrum SPF 30 is a dual-action sunscreen and makeup primer that protects against the damaging effects of UVA/UVB rays, infrared-A (IR-A) radiation, and high-energy visible (HEV) blue light, while hydrating the skin and providing a smooth matte finish that diminishes the appearance of skin imperfections. Powered by the exclusive ZOX12® antioxidant complex for 12 hours of time-release antioxidant protection, and formulated with 20% zinc oxide and 1% titanium dioxide for robust broad-spectrum mineral UV defence, this sunscreen doubles as a makeup primer — smoothing the skin and creating an ideal base for long-lasting, even makeup application.

Formulated with natural melanin for additional photoprotective and free radical-quenching benefits, vitamin E for antioxidant support, and silicones for a soft, silky priming finish, Sunscreen + Primer SPF 30 is a true multi-tasker that replaces both a daily sunscreen and a makeup primer in a single step. Suitable for all skin types and ideal for daily wear alone or under makeup.

Skin Types

Suitable for all skin types. Its hydrating, matte-finish formula is particularly well-suited to those who wear makeup daily and require a sunscreen that doubles as a primer, as well as those seeking a single-step daily SPF that smooths the skin and diminishes the appearance of fine lines and imperfections.

Skin Concerns

Formulated to protect against UV-induced aging, discoloration, and sensitization, as well as environmental damage from HEV blue light and infrared radiation. Also addresses uneven skin texture and the appearance of fine lines with a smoothing, priming formula that creates a flawless base for makeup application.

Key Ingredients

• Zinc Oxide 20% + Titanium Dioxide 1% (Mineral Sunscreen Actives) — A dual mineral sunscreen system providing robust broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection. At 20%, zinc oxide is a high-concentration mineral active that delivers comprehensive UV defence without chemical filters. Titanium dioxide complements zinc oxide’s UV coverage, together providing thorough broad-spectrum protection that is well-tolerated by sensitive skin and does not penetrate the skin or disrupt hormones.
• ZOX12® Complex — ZO®’s exclusive time-release antioxidant complex that delivers 12 hours of sustained defence against free radical damage from environmental aggressors and IR-A (infrared-A) radiation. The time-release mechanism ensures consistent antioxidant protection throughout the day, complementing the UV protection of the mineral sunscreen actives with comprehensive environmental defence.
• Natural Melanin — A natural photoprotective compound that provides additional protection against HEV blue light and acts as a free radical quencher, neutralizing reactive oxygen species generated by UV and visible light exposure. Natural melanin complements the UV protection of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide with additional defence against the visible light spectrum.
• Vitamin E (Tocopherol) — A potent lipid-soluble antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals, replenishes the skin’s lipid barrier, and provides additional antioxidant protection against environmental oxidative stress. Working synergistically with the ZOX12® complex and natural melanin, vitamin E contributes to the formula’s comprehensive antioxidant defence system.
• Silicones — A blend of skin-smoothing silicones that prime the skin to provide a soft, silky finish before makeup application. Silicones fill in fine lines and pores, creating a smooth, even canvas that extends makeup wear and improves the overall appearance of the skin — delivering the primer functionality that distinguishes this formula from a standard daily sunscreen.

How to Use

Apply liberally and evenly to the face 15 minutes before sun exposure. Can be worn alone for daily protection or under makeup for a more even, long-lasting application. Reapply at least every 2 hours during sun exposure, and use a water-resistant sunscreen if swimming or sweating. Children under 6 months: consult a doctor before use.

Sun Protection Measures: Spending time in the sun increases your risk of skin cancer and early skin aging. To decrease this risk, regularly use a sunscreen with a Broad-Spectrum SPF value of 15 or higher alongside other sun protection measures, including limiting time in the sun between 10 am and 2 pm, and wearing protective clothing, hats, and sunglasses.

Warnings: For external use only. Do not use on damaged or broken skin. Avoid contact with eyes — if contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Stop use and consult a doctor if rash occurs. Keep out of reach of children.
