Designed for Professionals
Used nationwide by dermatologists, estheticians, and medical spas as a trusted post-treatment protectant. This formula is clean, consistent, and scientifically aligned with modern clinical skin recovery protocols.
- Post-Procedure Safe: Protects freshly treated or inflamed skin without irritation.
- Vitamin Enriched: Boosts recovery with vitamins D and E to restore barrier function.
- Simple Yet Potent: Only six ingredients—nothing unnecessary, nothing reactive.
- Visible Protection: Slight white cast shows where skin is fully covered, ensuring complete application.
- Clinical-Grade Confidence: Non-nano zinc oxide delivers full UVA + UVB coverage backed by FDA monograph data.
Science-Based Formulation
Our sunscreen delivers physical UV protection through non-nano zinc oxide, the most stable, broad-spectrum filter recognized by dermatologists and the FDA. Combined with food-grade antioxidants and vitamins, it helps reduce oxidative stress and supports skin repair.
Clinical Insight: Physical mineral sunscreens are preferred post-procedure because they sit on top of the skin rather than absorbing into it. This avoids irritation and supports natural healing after resurfacing or exfoliation.
Ideal Professional Uses
For Dermatology & Medical Offices: Apply immediately after peels, IPL, or laser treatments to protect vulnerable skin. Use for patient samples or refill programs.
For Spas & Estheticians: Apply as a finishing layer post-facial or exfoliation to calm skin and deliver vitamin support. Perfect for clean beauty and eco-conscious clients.

Professional Ordering Notes
Lead Time: 1–4 weeks. Each gallon is made fresh to order. Because of its cost and small-batch production, we cannot offer refunds or discounts. Thank you for understanding and supporting sustainable manufacturing.
How to Apply
Apply a small amount and spread evenly. The visible white layer confirms protection. Once warmed by the skin, it softens and blends naturally, leaving a light matte finish. Reapply every 2 hours or after swimming, sweating, or towel drying.
Tip for Professionals: Use disposable spatulas or pumps for hygienic in-room application. For client retail, portion into smaller jars or refillable tubes.
The Science of Zinc Oxide
Zinc oxide is the safest and most effective sunscreen active recognized by dermatologists and the FDA. It works as a physical barrier, sitting on top of the skin to reflect and scatter UVA and UVB rays, rather than absorbing them. This makes it ideal for freshly treated or inflamed skin that cannot tolerate chemical filters.
Unlike chemical sunscreens that generate heat and free radicals during UV absorption, zinc oxide remains stable, non-irritating, and photochemically inert. Our non-nano, uncoated zinc oxide (25%) provides broad-spectrum protection and supports the skin’s own healing process after professional treatments.
Science Insight: Studies confirm that zinc oxide is uniquely effective at blocking both UVA and UVB rays while reducing post-procedure inflammation and oxidative stress. It also helps maintain skin hydration and barrier integrity during recovery.
- Mechanism: Reflects and scatters UV light to prevent cellular DNA damage.
- Particle Size: Non-nano (over 100 nm) to ensure zero skin penetration.
- Photostability: Does not degrade in sunlight, unlike most chemical filters.
- Biocompatibility: Naturally antimicrobial, soothing, and non-allergenic.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this sunscreen leave a white cast?
Yes, slightly. That visible layer confirms full coverage and ensures even protection. Professionals appreciate this visual cue—it shows exactly where the skin is fully protected, especially after peels or laser treatments.
Is this formula safe for use on freshly treated skin?
Absolutely. It’s designed specifically for use after dermatology and spa treatments. Free from preservatives, silicones, alcohols, or petrochemicals, it calms skin while providing reliable mineral protection.
Does it work for all skin types and tones?
Yes. The formula was developed for every skin type, including sensitive, acne-prone, or barrier-compromised skin. The white tint softens as it warms on the skin, leaving a matte protective finish suitable for most tones.
Can I use it under makeup?
Yes. Many professionals use it as a primer after recovery treatments. For daily cosmetic wear, Waxhead’s tinted mineral sunscreen provides a thinner texture and color balance for easy layering under foundation.
Is it non-comedogenic?
Yes. The combination of non-nano zinc oxide, organic olive oil, and beeswax prevents pore clogging and supports balanced sebum levels, even on oily or acne-prone skin.
How does it compare to chemical sunscreens?
Chemical sunscreens absorb UV energy and convert it into heat, often triggering redness or irritation—especially on post-procedure skin. Waxhead’s mineral sunscreen deflects UV light naturally and remains stable all day without heat generation or reactive byproducts.
How should clinics and spas apply it hygienically?
Use disposable spatulas or pump dispensers for in-room applications. For retail or patient samples, portion into small refillable jars. Store at room temperature and avoid direct sunlight for maximum shelf life.
Is it reef-safe and environmentally responsible?
Yes. 100% reef-safe, cruelty-free, and biodegradable. Every ingredient meets strict toxicity standards for both human and marine safety.
What is the cost efficiency for professional use?
Each gallon equals roughly 32 retail-size 4oz tubes—about $12.50 per equivalent. This format provides significant savings for clinics and spas needing high-quality SPF for post-care or treatment applications.
Can I order in bulk or set up recurring shipments?
Yes. For multi-gallon orders or recurring shipments, contact wholesale@waxhead.com for standing order pricing and private-label options.
Is this product made in the USA?
Yes. Every batch is blended in small runs at our facility to maintain ingredient integrity and freshness.
