I'm trying to put a list of high-zinc sunscreens together for future reference. I'm a huge fan of zinc-only sunscreens. Anyone know any I've forgotten here?
And man...what is it with 18.6% zinc oxide? Are these companies all just desperately attempting to copy each other, or is this some sort of magic amount?
Natural Instinct Natural Mineral Sunblock SPF 30+ - 20% zinc oxide
Megan Gale Environmental Skin Protector SPF 30+ - 20% zinc oxide
DermaQuest Skin Therapy ZinClear SPF 30 - 18.6% zinc oxide
Pratima Neem Rose SPF 30 - 18.6% zinc oxide
Burnout Zinc Oxide SPF 32 - 18.6% zinc oxide
Purified Skincare Sun-Zinc15 - 15% zinc oxide
Becca Cosmetics Mineral SPF 30 Primer - 17% zinc oxide
Devita Solar Protective Moisturizer 30 - 14% zinc oxide
Osmosis Shelter SPF 29 - 20% zinc oxide
Epicuren Zinc SPF 20 - 17% zinc oxide
Obagi Rosaclear SPF 30 - 15.5% zinc oxide, 2% titanium dioxide
Obagi Physical SPF 32 - 18.5% zinc oxide
UV Natural SPF 30+ - 24.8% zinc oxide
Soleo Organics All Natural Sunscreen SPF 30+ - 22.3% zinc oxide
Badger Sunscreen SPF 30 - 20.5% zinc oxide

Okay, here's my notepad on MUA with the names, prices and ingredients of pretty much every single zinc-only sunscreen I can find:

This is one of the many, many, waterless zinc-only sunscreens. It's extremely thick and heavy because it consists of a variety of oils and butters. |

I thought it was horrible. It is very thick, like putting paste on your face and it does not sink in. One of the worst sunscreens I have tried! |
