Waxhead Zinc Oxide

Waxhead makes a quintessential, no-nonsense, zinc-based sunscreen. Their sunblocks are notable for the lists of what they don’t have in them is longer than the list of actual ingredients. If products were defined purely by utility, this would be at the top of the list. This aggressive, no-nonsense sunscreen uses simple and effective ingredients to accomplish one job: Protect your skin from the sun.

Overall, this product is for utilitarian-minded, environmentally conscious people who have no qualms about backing their beliefs up with money, or displaying them on their face.
