Pure Zinc Non Comedogenic Sunscreen for Acne & Sensitive Skin SPF 50: High Protection Without Breakouts!
Acne-prone skin needs sun protection more than any other type, especially if you’re using treatments that increase sensitivity. But many sunscreens clog pores, feel heavy or trigger new breakouts. Pure Zinc Acne & Sensitive Skin SPF 50 solves that problem.
With 25% non-nano zinc oxide and a non-comedogenic base infused with organic tea tree oil, it delivers high, broad-spectrum protection that won’t suffocate skin. It rubs in clear, feels lightweight, and helps soothe irritated, breakout-prone areas. Protection, not congestion, so you don’t have to choose between clear skin and safe skin.
Why it's the Smart Sunscreen for Acne & Sensitive Skin

✓ Non-Comedogenic Sunscreen – Tested not to clog pores or worsen acne
✓ 25% Non-Nano Zinc Oxide – Mineral shield with natural calming properties

✓ Lightweight, Non-Greasy Texture – Comfortable for oily/combination skin
✓ 80-Minute Water Resistance – Ideal for active and sporty skin

✓ Made in Australia – High-standard sun formulation
Pure Zinc Non Comedogenic for Acne & Sensitive Skin SPF 50 is ideal if you’re using:
Prescription retinoids (e.g. tretinoin), Over-the-counter retinol or retinal, AHAs/BHAs (glycolic acid, salicylic acid), Benzoyl peroxide, Azelaic acid or niacinamide serums.
These active ingredients make skin more sun-sensitive, meaning unprotected exposure can lead to burns, irritation and worsening hyperpigmentation. This mineral formula creates a calm, protective envelope over skin so your treatments can work without interference from UV damage.
Because it’s non-comedogenic, fragrance-free and mineral-only, it’s far less likely to sting, burn or trigger flare-ups on compromised skin barriers. It also helps protect post-spot marks from darkening, which is key when you’re trying to fade old pigmentation.

Why Acne-Prone Skin Needs SPF
If you’re battling breakouts, sun cream can feel like the enemy, many formulas feel heavy, clog pores and leave you shinier than before. But skipping SPF makes things worse. UV exposure on inflamed skin can:
- Deepen post-acne marks and hyperpigmentation
- Slow healing and increase redness
- Increase risk of scarring
- Dry the surface while increasing oil production underneath
If you use retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, AHAs/BHAs or prescription acne treatments, your skin is even more vulnerable to UV damage.
Pure Zinc Acne & Sensitive Skin SPF 50 is designed so that you no longer have to choose between clear skin and protection. The lightweight, oil-balanced base and non-comedogenic formula are specifically created for acne-prone and sensitive skin, so you can wear it daily without worrying about new congestion.
Zinc Oxide & Tea Tree: Our Unbeatable Duo for Breakout Skin
Zinc oxide isn’t just a UV filter, it’s naturally soothing and mildly antimicrobial, which makes it a smart choice for acne-prone complexions. It forms a protective, breathable layer on top of skin that:
- Shields against further irritation from UV, wind and pollution
- Helps calm visible redness associated with breakouts
- Reduces the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (dark marks)
We’ve paired this with organic tea tree oil, a botanical known for its purifying, clarifying properties. At carefully balanced concentrations, tea tree can:
- Help reduce the appearance of active blemishes
- Support a clearer-looking complexion over time
- Provide a fresh, “clean” feel without harsh alcohols
The result is a sunscreen that not only protects but also respects breakout-prone and sensitive skin. The supporting base includes hydrating, barrier-friendly ingredients (glycerol, sunflower oil, sodium hyaluronate) designed to keep skin comfortable, not stripped, crucial for long-term barrier health and calmer skin.

As someone who has INCREDIBLY sensitive fair skin and rosacea, you can imagine it's quite hard to find a sunscreen that works.
I have used this twice now, and NO breakouts. I tried another non-nano zinc sunscreen and the minute it got warm, it would melt off my face. I always find that no matter what sunlotion I wore, how often I reapplied, my face was always red. Well not today!!! I went horse riding in the sun and you couldn't even tell I had seen the sun! And, no sweating off the lotion!
It does leave a white cast though and that might not be for everyone.
I LOVE that this is factor 50 too!! Please never discontinue this 🥺
This product has been great for my skin. I am
In my early 40s and usually get spots from sun cream. Even the oil free ones- which end up drying my skin out.
I am Indian and have found the cream blends in well.
I would say, take a few minutes to really warm up the cream in your hands before applying ( rather than straight to face) as it blends in much more easily. There is a slight grainy texture but this melts away when warming the product.
It has a lovely natural smell- not the artificial chemical smell in other suncream.
I really didn’t know what to expect when I ordered this. I have acne rosacea and I have to be extra careful what I put on my face . This was perfect for my skin condition , no white cast which was a miracle in itself and no breakout after keeping it on all day.
A small amount goes a long way and still protected my skin all day in extreme hot sunny weather.
It really is gentle on sensitive skin.
My teenager has acne-prone sensitive skin and this natural mineral sunscreen is perfect. It's great for acne and doesn't cause any breakouts. Brilliant.
This natural mineral sunscreen is very good for acne and sensitive skin. I'm giving four stars because it takes a moment to blend, but it's great for acne and doesn't cause breakouts.
Let customers speak for us
from 1259 reviewsthis is the best sunscreen ive ever used. my skin is damaged from lasers and medications so im hypersensitive in the sun. ive tried everything including high end , very expensive ones, this one knocks them all into a cocked hat. excellent and great value for money.
Have applied to several patches of melasma which usually darken in the sun. This product appears to have stopped the darkening so I am now on my 2nd stick.
Great

It is VERY sticky and thick going on. BUT... it does dry and it works! So normally I do find that an hour or two after putting on other sunscreens, I am so red 🫠 I applied it before horse riding in the sun today, and NO redness 🔥 I am very fair/sensitive skin, so it's really easy for me to turn red/burn, even with factor 50 (which I have to apply every hour for it to work), so you can imagine my surprise when I wasn't red!
I love that it's kinder to skin, no harsh chemicals, inclusive for sensitive skins, non clogging, safer for animals in the sea, and love that it actually works and straight away!
It was easy to order online and arrived when stated and in good packaging, was quick delivery and the product is genuine and does what it should
Very happy with product and protects very well, last for ages even when going in & out the pool, reapply after lunch for a full days protection
Good product.
Very good sun cream, effective and nice consistency. Very quick delivery and communication, thank you
We've just been away in the scorching heat in France and Italy and didn't burn at all using this sunscreen.
I love it! Now I can buy this brand instead of another one I normally buy which is 3x more expensive
Already andaily user of Sunzapper on my face, I now use this body protection cream, which is just brilliant. I swim daily and have no need reapply, keeps me protected all day, my skin feels lovely and soft, blends in easily. I would never use anything else. Plus it’s great for the environment. Buy with confidence. Great customer service!
This is my first sun zapper sunscreen and Tbf I was looking for a replacement from another brand who were becoming too expensive and I found this. It’s still expensive but I like the product and considering its zinc the tan and bronze stick are no white cast and I’ve been using them as a concealer! I have deffo found my new sun favs
New to this particular Sun Zapper product, though not to others. I absolutely love how my mature skin looks, when using this product. I wasn’t expecting my skin to look so good! So easy to use, my skin feels totally comfortable, with a lovely natural highlight. I protect my face daily, so will be using this in the future. I didn’t use other makeup today, I felt just fine without. I live on the coast and also swam all day and knew I had no need reapply.
Using sun zapper factor 50 as I write this. Excellent suncream. I suffer from PLE, but not a trace of it, and I have been sitting in 25 degree heat fot the last three days when using Sun Zapper. I am si impressed with this product, I have ordered more for my next two holidays.
Feels great on my skin, good value too.
