Zinc it Over by SeriouslyFAB

“Don’t Wrinkle, Wear Sunscreen.”

Did that grab your attention?? It is a well known FACT that sun exposure is the leading cause to premature aging and wrinkles.

  Now I’m not saying a few age lines are the worst thing that can happen to us. But it’s also not a secret that most of us would like to keep those lines, sun spots, and overall nasty sun damage to a minimum.

Think about it – our faces are constantly exposed to the sun as compared to other parts of our bodies that are covered by clothes and shoes. In fact, your face is even getting sun exposure when you’re driving in a car because it has windows!

The NEW way to apply daily SPF!

With ZINC IT OVER, this product has 3 benefits that will allow you to have your cake (SPF 25) and eat it too (wear it over makeup).

Here’s what makes it different…

  1. It acts as a makeup setting spray that gives your makeup a fresh airbrushed look. This is a game CHANGER!

  2. It’s a sunscreen mist that allows for convenient reapplication while on the go. Every dermatologist and esthetician will remind you that once is not enough to apply your sunscreen. That’s because it typically only lasts 90-120 minutes. Now with this spray, you can reapply without disturbing your makeup!

  3. It contains anti-aging serums that brighten, hydrate, and calm the skin.  But just as important as it is for keeping your skin pretty and youthful looking, it is also free of all those harsh chemicals such as gluten, parabens, GMOs, Phthalates, Dimethicone, Alcohol, and Talc

What’s the big deal about Zinc Oxide?

The mineral Zinc Oxide is the safest and most effective sunscreen active legally available for use in the US. Unlike chemical sunscreens that absorb into the skin and bloodstream potentially posing health risks, Zinc Oxide sits on the surface of the skin — creating a powerful barrier against nasty sun damage.

I know what you’re thinking. “Doesn’t Zinc give an ugly white cast? That’s not pretty!”

In the past, the challenge of formulators has been the thick filmy nature of Zinc…until now. The Seriously FAB team found a way to create a formulation that is a fine mist and sheer enough to apply OVER your makeup without that unsightly white cast! In fact, this spray keeps your makeup looking its very best.

How To Use Your ZINC IT OVER spray.

There are a few tips for best application to follow when using this facial sunscreen

  • It is impossible to completely solubilize Zinc Oxide in water. That means that the Zinc settles a bit at the bottom between uses. No biggie though. Right before use, the bottle requires a good shake so that the ingredients can be blend nicely for the application to come out sheer. A good method is to tap the bottle on the palm of your hand 5 or 6 times.

  • The mist applies best when sprayed from a bit of a distance (approx 6 – 8 inches from face). This is exactly the same for normal makeup setting sprays. Be mindful that if you spray too close to the skin, the white Zinc will be visible.  But you’ll get the hang of it pretty quickly. About 6 pumps of the spray will be enough to cover your entire neck & face. There’s no need to pat the skin,  it will dry in about 10-15 seconds. While I’m at it, I sometimes squirt the top of my hands because they show age real quickly too!
