Particle Size: between 0.1 micron to 0.8 microns.
INCI Name: Zinc Oxide
Benefits: Zinc Oxide is a great barrier protector for the skin and as such is often used in baby bottom balms and barrier creams.
Solubility: Our zinc oxide is soluble in the oil phase of your formulation.
Please be aware that this grade of Zinc Oxide is not suitable for sunscreen manufacture. The particle size is too large and the zinc is not manufactured in a way that allows it to have a reliable SPF. It is best to have no SPF at all than to make a poorly covering formula.
Typical Use Level: Up to 15% in skincare. It's difficult to formulate any more than that into a product due to the large particle size.
