One & Done Untinted Mineral Sunscreen
Effortless Protection, Powerful Defence
We asked hundreds of women about sunscreen: why they use it, what they want from it, and why they skip it. This is what we heard:
"Sunscreens feel sticky."
"I hate the white cast."
"I need one product that does it all."
We heard you!
That’s why we created One & Done Untinted Mineral Sunscreen—ultra light, invisible, non-greasy, and nourishing with ultimate protection - all in one easy step.
Ingredient Science
9.5% Zinc Oxide
Acts as a physical shield, blocks both UVA and UVB rays from penetrating your skin. It is suitable for sensitive skin as it’s less likely to cause irritation like other chemical filters. It is completely photostable and resistant to water - so it won’t break down when exposed to the sun and will hold up through sweat and activities such as swimming for much longer.
3% Vitamin E
A potent antioxidant that removes free radicals that cause oxidative stress, a major cause of the deterioration of your skin’s collagen layer. It also works effectively to hydrate as it is both a humectant to help attract and absorb water into the skin and an emollient to prevent moisture loss.
Apply generously to the face and neck 15 minutes before sun exposure. Re-apply as needed. Perfect for daily use on normal to oily skin. Also, suitable for swimming and water activities.

What is a Mineral Sunscreen?
Mineral sunscreen is a sun protection option made with natural, physical ingredients such as Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide. These minerals create a protective layer on the skin's surface, reflecting or scattering UV rays, unlike chemical sunscreens that absorb into the skin.
-
What do the terms ‘SPF’, ‘PA’ & ‘Broad Spectrum’ stand for?
SPF (Sun Protection Factor): Indicates the level of protection a product offers against UVB rays, which cause sunburn and skin damage.
PA: A Japanese rating system that measures protection against UVA rays, which contribute to skin ageing. It ranges from PA+ (low) to PA++++ (highest).
Broad Spectrum: Refers to sunscreens that shield against both UVA and UVB rays, ensuring comprehensive sun protection.
-
Is SPF 50 sunscreen necessary?
SPF 50 blocks 98% of UVB rays, providing slightly more protection than SPF 30, which blocks around 97%. While higher SPF offers extra defence, it’s essential to re-apply sunscreen every two hours—or more often if swimming or sweating—to ensure continuous protection.
-
Does mineral sunscreen need to be reapplied?
The Zinc Oxide in mineral sunscreen is photostable and remains effective for longer. However, activities like swimming, sweating, or wiping your face during a workout can reduce its effectiveness. In these situations, we recommend reapplying sunscreen to maintain effective protection against the sun. For a convenient touch-up, you can use our SPF Top-Up Loose Powder.
