I would like to know if this is 100% pure non-nano zinc oxide? I see responses to the question below, but doesn't seem to be owner responses.

As far as I know this is indeed non-nano Zinc Oxide. I use this in creating sunscreen products for my business.

The ingredient only stated "Produced from naturally occurring zinc ore, super purity (free from other metals) Particle size <1000 nm " Hope that helps.

Zinc Oxide 14.5%Titanium Dioxide 2.0%Hope this helps. My son uses it, and hasn't had any problems. He is not able to wear any other sunscreen because the ingredients will cause a rash.

Go online to now supplements and ask them. I have a lot of trust in their products. But if they are sourcing it from the Pacific ocean I would worry about more than arsenic.After the Japanese meltdown there is probably a lot to consider. Thanks for asking the question.

It is a lotion, so there is an unctuose quality when first applied, but it soaks in fairly quickly. What I notice is that the zinc oxide leaves a slight bluish cast on the skin, so the face looks a little pasty when wearing the sunscreen. Not a real issue, since the point is protection.

Hi Cheryl - HA! I didn't know my review on this would still be around. Yes, the date is probably accurate. I will say I still like the product; I can't remember what my comments were ,but my dermatologist recommended it. It does leave a bit of a white film on the skin, but that's the zinc oxide providing protection. Any rate, thank you for the question.

Not 100% sure as I am traveling for a while and I do not have it with me but I am sure that it is paraben free which is great and I believe that active ingredients are Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide one 5 and one 10 percent.

Yes. There are 2 active ingredients: zinc oxide at 9% and octinoxate at 7.5%

this is non nano. In fact, this is one of the best sunscreen i ever have if you are searching not oily one. They also have a new formula and do a good job.

The active ingredients are octinoxate 7.5% and zinc oxide 10.5%. Octinoxate is considering potentially harmful, while zinc oxide is considered safe. I suspect Obagi may have eschewed using only physical sunscreen blockers because they tend to go on white, while this absorbs quickly into the skin. I use it on my face only.

It contains "transparent zinc oxide." Contents active ingredients are 7.5% Octinoxate and 7% zinc oxide.

Sorry for the delay! Christmas RUSH! YES, this product is SUPERIOR on All sorts of china. Recently took a BIG chunk (three pieces) out of my favorite soup mug ( holds 32 ounces ) and epoxy has held up extremely well, particularly IN THE MICRO-WAVE, heating everything from soups to stews to Chinese food and even pasta dishes, Marvelous product if you use it correctly. Experiment, be patient and you will be very satisfied. Worked beyond my expectations. GOOD LUCK!

here is some info i was able to get for you... i got this directclty from zinka... "All of our products are free of the nanoparticals. The SPF 30 formula contains 5% zinc. Of the 5% only 2% is a micro-fine zinc oxide, but not nano-size particals."

Do not see any information on the carton itself that would indicate that it has zinc. However, I am usingthe Ultra Wernets now instead of the Super Wernets. It says you can use it multiple times per day if youneed to so I suspect that means it doesn't have an zinc. I have had real good success with both, butI like the Ultra a more.

You will want to contact the seller, but I believe the product is certified by the Japan board of Organics. You can never know for sure, but Japanese culture is very honest and only approves safe additives, unlike the Chinese Government.

Yes. The EWG website lists Zinc Oxide for this product at a level 2, which is very low in their ratings.

I like this product. I am not a chemist, so I don't know how I could attest to the purity. Apparently, from your comment, you have some way to ascertain purity? If so, why ask? I had merely heard that OptiMSM is a good product, and I have heard that this is a good company. You are on your own from there.
