Description
Zano® products are zinc oxides with superior UVA/UVB protection. They are natural and naturally-based, non-penetrating mineral sunscreens that are also photostable, eliminating the need for added stabilizers. The Zano range consists of three base products tailored to deliver distinct UVA and transparency levels. Products are available as coated and uncoated powders.
