Banana Bright Mineral Face Sunscreen SPF 30

OLEHENRIKSEN Banana Bright Mineral Face Sunscreen SPF 30 is a fully mineral SPF that does double duty: 16.3% zinc oxide shields skin from UVA and UVB rays, while enhanced vitamin C works on the sun damage you already have. Protection and correction in one daily step.

What it actually does

• Blocks the sun physically. Zinc oxide at 16.3% sits on the skin as a barrier that reflects both UVA and UVB rays, helping discourage new dark spots from forming.
• Brightens over time. The vitamin C in the formula visibly evens skin tone, fights free radicals, and helps correct existing signs of sun exposure.
• Supports clearer skin. Niacinamide is included for a healthier-looking complexion.
• Counters the mineral cast. Because the zinc percentage is high, a temporary white cast is possible on some skin tones — the brand added light-reflecting mineral pigments specifically to help offset it.
• Backed by brand testing. In OLEHENRIKSEN's four-week clinical study, the formula measurably boosted brightness, hydration and skin tone. The product is vegan, gluten-free, cruelty-free and packaged recyclably.

How to use

1. Moisturise first — mineral SPF blends far better on hydrated skin.
2. Apply generously and evenly to face and neck about 15 minutes before going out in the sun.
3. Reapply at least every two hours, and switch to a water-resistant SPF if swimming or sweating.
4. Wearing makeup? Let the sunscreen fully absorb before layering foundation on top.
5. Skip it if you are allergic to vitamin C or any other ingredient, and stop if irritation occurs.

Questions

Will it leave a white cast?

Possibly, depending on your skin tone — the formula carries a high dose of zinc. The brand built light-reflecting pigments into it to soften that effect, and applying to well-moisturised skin helps it blend more easily.

Can I wear it under makeup?

Yes — give it time to absorb completely first, then apply your foundation for a seamless finish.
