Frequently Asked Questions
What is zinc oxide, and why is it used in skin Protection?
Zinc oxide is a naturally occurring mineral that creates a physical barrier between your skin and the elements. In our Everyday Zinc, it works alongside nourishing oils, butters and natural clays to give you tinted, long-lasting coverage that stays where you put it.
Is Everyday Zinc suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. Everyday Zinc is made with gentle, natural ingredients and is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. If you have a known sensitivity to any ingredient, please check the full ingredient list before use.
HOW often should I reapply my zinc?
Apply a generous, visible layer before heading outdoors. Our firm formula is made to stay on, but reapply whenever it has been wiped away by towels or goggles, or after longer periods in the water. If you can still see an even layer, your zinc barrier is still there.
Are your products reef-safe and environmentally friendly?
Yes. Our reef-friendly Everyday Zinc is made with non-nano zinc oxide and formulated to stay on your face through surf, sport and outdoor adventures. We also use reusable and recyclable tins as part of our commitment to caring for the places we love.
What makes your face oil suitable for removing zinc from your skin?
Everyday Zinc is oil soluble, so our botanical Cleansing Face Oil gently lifts it away without harsh scrubbing. Massage a few drops into your skin, then wipe clean with a warm, damp washcloth for soft, nourished skin.
Does Tinted zinc expire?
Zinc oxide itself remains stable, but the natural oils and butters in your tin can change over time. Store your Everyday Zinc somewhere cool and dry, away from direct heat. For the best quality, replace it after 18 months—or sooner if the colour, scent or texture has noticeably changed.
Are your products cruelty-free?
Our products are cruelty free and never tested on animals.
Can I use your products on my children?
Yes. Everyday Zinc is made with gentle, natural ingredients and is suitable for kids. Its firm, non-greasy texture stays where you put it, making it a practical choice for busy little faces. If your child has a known ingredient sensitivity, simply check the full ingredient list before use.
