Mineral sunscreens utilize zinc oxide and/or titanium dioxide to physically deflect UV rays, forming a protective barrier on the skin. While traditional mineral sunscreens often leave a thick white cast, Kobo offers nearly transparent formulas, catering to individuals with darker skin tones who have faced challenges in achieving seamless SPF application. This month, we’re featuring a formula that was created for that very purpose — and it was developed for use as a spray! Listen in as we interview one of Kobo’s Application Lab Specialists from Brazil on how to formulate a Mineral-Only Sunscreen Spray. This episode is packed with ingredients and manufacturing ideas to help you develop an effective, easy-to-use mineral sunscreen, just like our formula of the month. Don’t miss it!
