Zinka Colored Zinc Oxide Sunblock – High Zinc Formula for Nose and Face, Water & Sweat Resistant, Yellow

Zinka Nose Coat Sunscreen is an excellent choice for anyone needing reliable sun protection for specific areas like the nose, cheeks, or ears. Its fun colors, high SPF protection, and water-resistant formula make it a standout product for both adults and children. While its thick consistency may take some getting used to, the long-lasting protection it offers is well worth it. Highly recommended for outdoor enthusiasts, beachgoers, and anyone looking for effective, targeted sun protection with a playful twist.

I like this product because it works. I am outside in the sun a lot, working in very hot weather. This definitely provides the protection I need and I have had no sun burn at all. I also feel that it has a moisturizing affect. Now- it is greasy and leaves a white residue. Not to be used if you are trying to look pretty. It's a functional sun block that does it job. Ideal for my needs.

I have a white nose and lips on the hiking trail, but chapped lips and blisters are a thing of the past. This totally coats the surface and doesn't allow anything to get through it. It's so thick, I have to wipe my finger on my sock just to get it off my finger. If nothing else works, this will do the job.

I'm an East Asian female with moderate facial acne, and I bought this item because I wanted a decent sunscreen that would not aggravate my acne. I heard that zinc oxide as a physical sunscreen was better for acne-prone skin, so I specifically looked for a sunscreen with a high percentage of this ingredient.I only ordered this item from BC Surf & Sport, and it was about a $2.19 shipping fee. I received the item in about 3 days, so there wasn't a long wait. However, considering I only live a few states away from where this gets shipped, and considering the high shipping fee in comparison to the total price and size of this item, I was definitely expecting a quick shipping period.This product is 0.60 oz, so it's definitely small. The length of it fits in the palm of my hand, and I have small hands. Its length is about 5 and a half U.S. pennies, its height in its tallest section about 10 U.S. pennies, and its width about 1 U.S. penny. I have two photos showing this size comparison.I originally expected this product to be very hard to blend in, considering the whitish cast that most physical sunscreens with zinc oxide leave. I read on Zinka's website that this product contains 25% zinc, so I was surprised when the product blended in decently. I don't really notice a whitish cast. However, the product does look very oily and shiny on your skin, which is probably due to the first ingredient being what seems to be petroleum jelly.The back of the product only reads "petrolatum, zinc oxide, beeswax, paraffin, mineral oil, titanium dioxide, BHA, fragrance, iron oxides (CI 77489)," without mentioning the percentage of zinc oxide, so I am a bit suspicious of the product actually containing 25% zinc oxide. Usually, products with zinc oxide as an active, main ingredient will list the percentage of it. I believe they may have reduced the percentage of zinc oxide in the product, especially considering the texture, which is very smooth and oily. In fact, it feels exactly like petroleum jelly.I also have two photos showing this product on me. For both, the darker swatch is the product without it blended in. The second swatch (the oily area next to it) is the product quickly blended in. Recall that I am East Asian. My skin tone is a light bronze in the summer, with slight yellow undertones. I find that the product has cooler undertones, and seems to resemble the color "peach" in a Crayola crayon box.I have used the product out in the sun these past two weeks, and no one has commented that I have product on my face. However, I do notice that it is shiny and makes me look oily. (Also, I am worried that the easier blendability means less zinc oxide protection.) However, my nose has not burned from using this product. All I noticed from the last two weeks is a slight tan.Also, this product has not broken me out, although I have noticed slight clogged pores on the bridge of my nose, where I usually have clear skin. I am not 100-percent sure it was this product, but just be careful.Lastly, this product has a strong sweet scent that slightly resembles artificial coconuts, so if you have a very sensitive nose or dislike very sweet scents, you may want to reconsider.

Great stuff

It's zinc. Without the deadly chemical additives. It works great for noses, cheekbones, for headbones and pretty much the whole face. If you put it on light you won't be able to see it. The thicker you put it on, the more block-out effect you will notice. It has a great coconut scent. So if you're thinking about taking a chance on this, I say go for it. Then smear a little on. You'll be saving your face in the process.

Works fine, but VERY small package for the price. Lasted me less than 1 month.

I Purchased this product to protect my nose. This is my first time using it and so far it’s working. I would highly suggest if you want to protect your face from the sun to purchase his product.
