Skin Health + Science
Mineral protection sits on top of skin to reflect UV—no penetration, no chemical filters. Our 25% non-nano, uncoated zinc oxide delivers true broad-spectrum coverage while iron oxides add visible-light defense and natural tone correction. Minimal ingredients mean fewer irritants and a calmer barrier you can trust every day.
What you’ll notice
Day 1 – Smooth, even tone that looks like skin. Sheer tint blends fast with no ghostly residue. Skin feels moisturized but not greasy. Your face will look air-brushed in photos!
Day 7 – Reliable wear through your day. Skin feels calm and balanced. You trust it enough to skip the foundation.
Day 30 – Skin looks healthier, calmer, and more even. One step replaces primer, SPF, and base makeup. Your friends ask what you’re using.
How to use
- Shake and knead the tube before each use—natural separation means no synthetic emulsifiers.

- Dot by zone, blend with fingertips or sponge, and let it set 2–3 minutes.
- Reapply every 2 hours outdoors or after toweling and sweating.

Frequently asked questions
Will it make my skin look white?
No. When blended properly, the iron oxide tint offsets zinc’s natural whiteness and dries to a sheer, skin-like finish.
How do I pick a shade?
BurlyWood suits fair-to-light tones; DarkGoldenRod suits light-medium to medium tones. If unsure, apply a thin layer and set with translucent powder.
Is it good for sensitive or breakout-prone skin?
Yes. Minimalist, fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and dermatologically gentle.
Does the tint stain clothing?
It can mark light fabrics. Let it set fully before dressing. Pretreat with a gentle detergent or a baking soda paste if needed.
Is it reef-safe?
Yes. Only non-nano zinc oxide—no oxybenzone, octinoxate, or harmful petrochemicals.
How often should I reapply?
Every 2 hours outdoors, after swimming, toweling, or heavy sweating. Indoors, reapply when you head outside again.
Can I wear it under makeup?
Yes. Let it set first, then apply concealer or powder as needed. Many users skip the foundation entirely.

Customer Reviews
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!
My husband was a surfer and prefers the white sunscreen. I prefer the tinted. It goes on easily and it's a product I can feel good about because all of the ingredients are clean.
Definitely the best tinted mineral sunscreen I’ve tried, and priced really well.
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!
Love it. I mix the light and medium shades for a perfect color. Wear it everyday.
