Waxhead Mineral Tinted Sunscreen for Face

Your everyday sun defense—clean, breathable, and beautifully minimal.

Built for daily wear, this tinted mineral sunscreen gives your face broad-spectrum protection with just nine clean, food-grade ingredients. It’s lightweight, lightly tinted, and loaded with non-nano zinc oxide—designed for real life: walking the dog, working by a window, running errands, or sitting at soccer practice. Simple. Effective. Thoughtful.


A Hint of Tint, Not a Face Full of Makeup

Our iron oxide tint offsets zinc's natural whiteness, creating a soft, sheer glow that enhances your natural skin tone without caking, streaking, or clogging.

Choose from:

  • BurlyWood – a pink-beige for lighter skin tones
  • DarkGoldenRod – a bronze-tan for medium tones

The pigments offer blue light defense and a subtle sheer tint. You’ll still look like you, just a little more even and a lot more protected.


Skin-First, Everything-Else-Second

This sunscreen doubles as skincare, thanks to organic butters and oils that hydrate, nourish, and support skin health. It won’t clog pores or cause breakouts, and it plays well under makeup—if you choose to wear any.


Clean, Conscious, and Made for Real Life

Waxhead is reef-safe, kid-safe, pregnancy-safe, and safe for sensitive skin. It’s also packaged in recyclable materials and free of anything that doesn't belong in or on your body.


Not Sport Sunscreen. Better.

Most sport sunscreens are overbuilt for everyday use, leaving a greasy film or irritating your skin. Waxhead is purposefully different. We skipped the silicones, fragrance, and synthetic chemicals. You get gentle, non-comedogenic, breathable protection that feels more like skincare than gear.


Best For
  • Everyday Use – Morning walks, Zoom calls, grocery runs, or reading on the patio.
  • Health-Conscious Consumers – If you’re picky about what goes on your skin, this is your sunscreen.
  • Minimalists + Clean Beauty Fans – Tinted, effective, and elegant in its simplicity.
  • Parents & Professionals – Subtle, smart, and safe enough for all ages.

If you’re tired of sunscreens that overpromise and underdeliver, it’s time for a daily sunscreen that respects your face and your values.

Tinted Facial Sunscreen FAQs

Will this sunscreen make my skin white? We've added natural iron oxide to conceal zinc oxide's typically white appearance. When used properly, zinc oxide sunscreen gives skin a visible hue.

When will this sunscreen expire? Technically 3 years from purchase, but the useful life of our sunscreens has no practical limit, since our active ingredient zinc oxide is a mineral and does not lose its sunscreen capabilities over time, EVER. However, the FDA requires all sunscreen products to list a 3-year shelf life (mainly because petrochemical active ingredients in common sunscreens degrade quickly, even on the shelf). Regardless, if you ever feel a Waxhead product has spoiled, just let us know, and we'll send you a free replacement.

Does Waxhead Tinted Facial Sunscreen leave a residue on clothing? Our sunscreen is formulated with iron oxide for tinting, which, yes, can stain light-colored clothing. Our awesome customer Joanne recommends Arm & Hammer. She says, "I sprinkled this on the stain and rubbed it with a wet sponge. The stain came out completely!"

Is this sunscreen vegan and cruelty-free? Yes, it is! We are proud to say that our sunscreen is vegan and has never been tested on animals. Waxhead uses absolutely NO animal testing. We test our sunscreens on willing humans using federally mandated FDA sunscreen testing protocol to accurately calculate our products’ SPFs for labeling. Our tinted facial sunscreens are also vegan. We believe in creating products that are both ethical and effective.

Is Waxhead Tinted Facial Sunscreen suitable for sensitive skin? Absolutely! Our sunscreen is formulated with gentle, certified organic ingredients suitable for even the most sensitive skin types. However, we always recommend performing a patch test before full application to ensure compatibility with your skin.

How often should I reapply Waxhead Tinted Facial Sunscreen? We recommend applying sunscreen every two hours, especially if swimming or sweating. Remember, consistency is key when it comes to sun protection!

Why non-nano zinc oxide sunscreen? Non-nano zinc oxide provides safer and more effective sun protection than chemical sunscreens. It sits on your skin as a physical barrier against harmful UV rays.

What makes Waxhead the best sunscreen for kids and beach activities? Waxhead is not only kid-friendly but also ocean-friendly. Our sunscreen won't damage the oceans, giving you peace of mind while enjoying beach adventures.

Can I wear Waxhead Tinted Facial Sunscreen under makeup? Absolutely! Our lightweight formula blends effortlessly, making it the perfect base for your makeup routine.

Can both men and women use Waxhead Tinted Facial Sunscreen? Absolutely! Our sunscreen is designed for all genders. Its lightweight formula and tinted finish suit anyone seeking a natural, healthy glow while staying protected from the sun.

Will Waxhead Tinted Facial Sunscreen leave my skin feeling greasy? Our sunscreen is formulated to be lightweight and non-greasy, ensuring a comfortable and pleasant application. It will leave behind a natural glow finish. If it is too shiny for you, try using a facial powder.

Can Waxhead Tinted Facial Sunscreen be a standalone foundation? Yes, it can! Our tinted facial sunscreen provides light coverage and can be a light foundation. It evens out your skin tone while protecting it from the sun's harmful rays.

Can I also use Waxhead Tinted Facial Sunscreen on my body? While our product is primarily designed for facial use, there's no harm in using it on other exposed areas of your body. However, we recommend using our Natural Sunscreen Sticks for optimal protection for full-body coverage.

Is Waxhead Tinted Facial Sunscreen reef-safe? Absolutely! Our sunscreen is reef-safe and formulated without oxybenzone and octinoxate, which are known to be harmful to coral reefs. With Waxhead, you can enjoy your time in the water while protecting our precious marine ecosystems.

Why does Waxhead cost more than other sunscreens? Our prices represent a true cost to the world. We source our top-grade ingredients only from reputable, fair-trade, cruelty-free, almost entirely US-based companies. We don’t purchase ingredients from countries with questionable labor or production practices. Learn more.

How to apply Waxhead Tinted Sunscreen

A little goes a long way; you can see exactly where you apply it.

Step 1: Shake to mix
Our sunscreens lack chemicals to keep ingredients homogenized, so a bit of liquid may squirt from tube varieties before the sunscreen appears. This is OK, and there’s nothing wrong with your sunscreen. Just close the lid and knead or shake the tube.

Step 2: Dot sunscreen onto the skin in sections
Put sunscreen on your fingertips and apply it in small dots on sections of the face. Dot and spread with fingertips or a makeup sponge. If it is too dewy on the skin, use a facial powder. Tint can stain clothing.

Literally, a LIFE SAVER!

This stuff is fantastic, even better than the last great sunscreen I had (that went out of business). I had MF, a cancerous lymphoma that presents only as an innocent-looking little pink rash. After going through many doctors, I finally found one who could treat it but they did so with intensive UVA light baths. All of which was great, it disappeared but at the end they mentioned that as a byproduct of the treatment they had burned off ALL of my skin's natural protection and I would, for the rest of my life, have to wear big hats, long sleeve shirts and pants, etc. and lots of SUNSCREEN, or I would get skin cancer (so I traded a cure for one cancer for the possibility of another). So I've been doing as they said and now I have Waxhead suncreen and I am SO RELIEVED -- because without it I would almost certainly struggle with all the other (96%) of sunscreens that protect you by interrupting your hormones (the ones that tell you you are burned). Waxhead DOES NOT do that! They use natural oils to protect you and NON-NANO zinc (which does not affect the ocean reefs and fish). Waxhead sunscreen, thank you so much, you're a life saver!

New favorite face sunscreen

Definitely the best tinted mineral sunscreen I’ve tried, and priced really well.

Really great, nicely tinted.

This is a fantastic sunscreen that doesn't smell and has great coverage for sensitive skin. The tint is a bit dark for really fair skin, so mixing it with the white baby sunscreen makes just the right lighter shade. Will buy again!

Mineral Tinted Sunscreen for Face

Not for sweaty people

I needed a sunscreen without silicones so I think the ingredients are great. The color is great and it goes on no problem. However, I am active and outside a lot so I sweat a lot, and I felt that I was wiping it off shortly after putting it on because it made my face feel very sweaty. It is not practical for me to be reapplying multiple times a day and would probably make my skin break out worse than usual. Maybe it’ll work better for me in the winter?
