Pure Mineral Sunscreen – Sensitive Formula (Mango Seed Oil)
6 reviews
£20.00
Pure Mineral Sunscreen formulated with non-nano zinc oxide, designed for sensitive, reactive and redness-prone skin.
This fragrance-free mineral sunscreen uses zinc oxide as a physical UV filter. Unlike chemical sunscreens that absorb into the skin, zinc sits on the surface and forms a protective barrier.
Choose your zinc level depending on your needs:
🌤 15% Zinc – Everyday Wear • Lighter texture • Still leaves a natural white cast • Ideal for daily city use • Works well under makeup
☀️ 25% Zinc – Extra Protection • Thicker texture • More visible white cast • Ideal for prolonged sun exposure • More protective barrier feel
Because this formula contains visible zinc oxide, a white cast is expected — especially with the 25% option. This is completely normal and part of how mineral sunscreen protects the skin.
For a more balanced finish, blend thoroughly and allow to settle before applying makeup.
To help neutralise white cast and reduce the appearance of redness, pair with our ✨ Mineral Sunscreen Colour Correctors. ✨
Available in 5 skin-enhancing shades plus 1 green redness corrector, they’re perfect for a natural “no-makeup makeup” finish.✨💄
Mix them directly into your sunscreen for tone-balancing coverage, or blend into your favourite moisturiser or foundation for a customised glow.
Because they are mineral mica-based powders, they are designed to be mixed into a cream, sunscreen or foundation — they are not intended to be worn alone.
When blended into your Pure Mineral Sunscreen, they can act as a light, tone-balancing base in place of foundation for a natural “no-makeup makeup” look.
✨With glowing reviews and a breathable mineral base, they’re ideal for sensitive, reactive and redness-prone skin.✨
Fragrance free. Essential oil free. No chemical UV filters. Designed for problem-prone skin.

🧴 How to Use
Apply generously to clean, dry skin before sun exposure. Reapply every 2 hours, and after swimming, sweating, or towel drying.
For best results, apply in thin layers and allow to absorb before dressing.
🌞 About White Cast
One common concern with mineral sunscreen is white cast — because zinc oxide sits on the surface of the skin, some formulas can look pale or chalky, especially when applied thickly.
Modern non-nano zinc formulas are designed to blend more smoothly, but if you’d still like a more even finish without heavy coverage, colour correction can help. Using a light tint or corrector can neutralise visible redness and make your mineral sunscreen look softer on the skin — without clogging pores or irritating sensitive skin.
For extra help with balancing tone and reducing the appearance of white cast or redness, check out our Mineral Sunscreen Colour Correctors — a collection of five skin-enhancing shades plus a green shade to neutralise redness.
Created from lived experience with eczema, acne, rosacea and autoimmune-sensitive skin, Farmstead Naturals products are made with care, honesty and respect for sensitive skin.
⚠️ Important Note
This product is a mineral sunscreen made with zinc oxide. While zinc oxide provides physical sun protection, SPF ratings require laboratory testing to make official SPF claims. Always combine sunscreen use with protective clothing, shade and sensible sun exposure.
Suitable for Rosacea-Prone Skin

Great natural sunscreen
I’ve been using this sunscreen consistently and I’m genuinely impressed with how well my sensitive, rosacea-prone skin tolerates it. It feels calming on application and doesn’t trigger redness or irritation, which is very important for me.
The texture is nourishing but not heavy and a little goes a long way. It provides good hydration throughout the day while still absorbing nicely without leaving a greasy finish. My skin feels protected, comfortable and balanced. I also appreciate that it’s based on non-nano zinc oxide and skin-supportive ingredients rather than harsh chemical filters.
It’s rare for me to find a sun protection product that both protects and moisturizes without upsetting my skin, but this one truly does both. Highly recommended for anyone with sensitive or reactive skin.
