*The Fitzpatrick scale uses genetic disposition and reaction to sun exposure to determine your skin type. Type I is very fair, type II is fair, type III is light, type IV is medium, type V is dark and type VI is very dark.
Zinc oxide offers superior broad-spectrum protection from both UVA and UVB rays. It’s also one of the safest sunscreen ingredients, sitting on top of the complexion and scattering UV rays before they reach your skin.
When it comes to sunscreen, broad spectrum is the gold standard. Standard SPF levels only measure UVB protection, leaving your skin susceptible to sun damage. Broad-spectrum sunscreens shield against both UVA and UVB rays, and all EltaMD sunscreens provide this superior level of protection.
