MDSolarSciences Mineral Crème Sunscreen SPF 50 Sheer Matte 3.4 fl oz — Water-Resistant Primer

MDSolarSciences Mineral Crème SPF 50 is a lightweight, mineral-based facial sunscreen that provides broad-spectrum zinc-oxide protection with a sheer matte finish and no white cast.

Designed to function as both daily sun protection and a makeup-friendly primer, this silky mineral crème blends smoothly into skin while delivering SPF 50 defense. The formula uses micronized zinc oxide and titanium dioxide for physical UV protection, and includes antioxidant-rich botanicals to help shield skin from environmental stressors. Its weightless texture minimizes shine and blurs minor imperfections, making it an easy step in morning routines whether you wear makeup or go bare-faced.

How does this sunscreen wear under makeup?

The Mineral Crème was formulated to layer well beneath foundation and tinted products. Its matte, low-shine finish helps foundation sit smoothly without pillling, and it absorbs quickly so you can continue your routine without waiting.

• Silky texture that primes skin for foundation application
• Sheer formula avoids white cast under many skin tones
• Quick-absorbing for fast makeup layering
• Matte finish reduces excess oil for longer wear

What active ingredients provide sun protection?

Protection comes from mineral actives—micronized zinc oxide and titanium dioxide—that physically block UVA and UVB rays. These non-chemical filters are suitable for sensitive skin types and provide broad-spectrum coverage without relying on organic absorbers.

• Micronized zinc oxide: broad-spectrum, visible light-friendly defense
• Titanium dioxide: complements zinc for UVB and UVA protection
• Formulated for SPF 50 efficacy in everyday conditions
• Water-resistant for up to 80 minutes during activity

Which skin types and concerns is this best for?

The Mineral Crème suits a wide range of skin types, including normal, combination, oily, and sensitive skin. Its lightweight, non-greasy feel and matte appearance make it particularly useful for people who prefer a polished, shine-controlled look from their sunscreen.

• Gentle formula compatible with sensitive skin
• Vegan and cruelty-free for conscious consumers
• Antioxidant blend (vitamin C, green tea, pomegranate) supports environmental defense
• Helpful as a primer for minimizing the look of pores and fine texture

How water-resistant and portable is the product?

This sunscreen offers up to 80 minutes of water resistance, making it practical for routine outdoor activities and short periods of swimming or sweating. Packaged in a 3.4 fl oz tube, it fits well in a day bag or travel kit for reapplication when needed.

• Up to 80 minutes water resistance for active days
• 3.4 fl oz tube sized for daily use and travel
• Smooth application allows easy reapply over makeup if necessary
• Durable packaging designed for handbag or gym tote storage
