Sheer Genius Mineral Sunscreen + Moisture SPF 50

$ 36

The newest way to Sunscreen Your Way™--and our first with SPF 50 + daily moisturizing ingredients--introducing Sheer Genius. This two-in-one mineral formula provides invisible broad spectrum SPF 50 protection plus moisturizing ingredients to bring you a hydrating, SPF-step in your skincare routine. The "genius" is its use of non-nano zinc oxide for lightweight sun protection which goes on every skin tone absolutely sheer, no trace of white minerals. Protects skin from free radicals, HEV (blue) light, and is clinically proven to increase skin moisture levels, protect against pollution-induced free radicals and improve the appearance of fine lines--what's not genius about that? 

Sheer Genius also has some hidden superpowers! With great moisturizing ingredients like aloe, jojoba, apple extract, squalene and glycerin, it is an ideal daily facial moisturizer that helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and soothe dry, irritated skin. Antioxidants mean less visible sun damage in the future. And then there's the sugar. Sheer Genius is packaged in a bioplastic tube made from sugarcane, and our sustainably produced Squalene is derived from sugarcane (not animal by-products). Finally, enjoy a little guilt-free sugar!

See product details below, and read our blog for more about the genius of Sheer Genius.

Do I need another moisturizer when I wear Brush On Block Sheer Genius Mineral Sunscreen + Moisture SPF 50?
Most of us have found that we do not need an additional moisturizer when we use Sheer Genius. If your skin is especially dry, you may benefit from applying a little of our Nobody’s Perfect Daily Face Oil, or a moisturizer you like under your Sheer Genius. Do not apply moisturizer over your sunscreen, as it will not absorb as well.

Do I need to reapply Sheer Genius?
Yes. All sunscreens need to be reapplied every 2 hours when you are exposed to UV rays. You can choose to reapply Sheer Genius, or if you are wearing makeup or want to keep your hands clean, to apply a layer of Brush On Block Mineral Powder Sunscreen!
