    What the gurus are saying

    A pink hue makes this 100% mineral formula disappear on skin while hiding the white cast mineral sunscreens typically leave. Experts praise its gentleness on sensitive skin and note it's safe to wear around the eyes; the 13% zinc oxide gives it a distinctly dewy finish. They rank it highly among mineral options for all skin types and tones.

    "I like this one by Supergoop. This is the zinc sunscreen, it's an SPF 40, and it's really easy to kind of pump on one of these kind of brushes and brush on the tops of your hands when you wash your hands."
    Yay
    "This is the zinc screen 100% mineral ocean SPF 40. This is so good, only problem is that it's like $40. Dr. Andrea, Dr. Dre on YouTube, she recommended the Supergoop zinc sunscreen and she got me hooked on this. She specifically spoke about how great this is as not only a tinted sunscreen but to be used around the under eyes. When it comes to putting sunscreen around the under eye area, you do not want it to sting your eyeballs, you do not want it to hurt. And if you do have purpleness or puffiness, you want something that has ingredients that's either going to take that puffiness down or disguise it, disguise the purpleness. You can literally put this on the eyelids as well and it doesn't crease up majorly. Now it is slightly hydrating but it's also vegan and cruelty free and SPF 40. This is a fantastic option for those sensitive areas like around the under eyes. Even though it's a little bit more expensive for the small amount that you use, this is worth it. You can use it all over the face too, but this is keeping me protected and neutralizing my purple."

    The 3 Best Ingredients To Treat Rosacea
    "If you're looking for a mineral option, this is one of my favorites. This is the Zinc Screen from Super Goop. This is 100 percent mineral, and those mineral formulas are made with things like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. This one has zinc oxide, and those are usually a little bit more gentle on skin, especially if you are someone who has a lot of sensitivities."
    The 5 Moisturizers I Use as Eye Creams
    "This is a phenomenal sunscreen that I would recommend you put all over your face, but it also doesn't sting the eye area. Yes, you can use it all around the top and lower eyelid and pretty much everywhere around the eyes. What's great about this formula is that it actually has ingredients such as physical or mineral sunscreens that are broad spectrum and prevent against the damaging UV rays, and those UV rays are what cause fine lines and wrinkles. It's what causes collagen degradation. For some people, those UV rays can actually cause veins in the skin to show up a little bit more or the skin to kind of degrade and get a little bit thinner. Actually applying sunscreen is going to help with that. I've been doing this for over a year based on a dermatologist's recommendation and I cannot go back."
    Yay
    "This is 100 mineral and has 13 zinc oxide in it and this one has a pink hue to it. It is not tinted to match a certain skin tone but it just has this translucent hue to be invisible while also masking that white cast from mineral sunscreens, so this one will work for almost all skin tones and be invisible when you put it on your skin. This also has iron oxides again to protect against blue light and this has a few other unique ingredients like winter cherry, coconut fruit extract and blueberry extract to just give this extra bit of nourishment and protection to the skin barrier. Compared to the other two I showed you, this one will actually finish on the skin a little bit more dewy or have a little bit more of that shiny hydrated look. You can check this one out for 42, and make sure you check out the Zinc Screen for being the most translucent and invisible look on the skin."

    How To Shop For Supergoop! Sunscreen | Product Reviews by The Budget Dermatologist
    "This has 13% zinc oxide and this will be the most dewy finish of all the mineral options. It is pink hued so it really is going to be the best tinted match for all skin tones because it should finish translucent on the skin. This is my personal favorite sunscreen from the entire line of Supergoop products. This is great for all skin types and tones, 100% mineral and can be worn alone or with makeup. If you want to get a mineral sunscreen, this is my first choice."
