A 100% mineral sunscreen, with enhanced vitamin C and 16.3% zinc oxide, that protects skin against UVA and UVB rays, and corrects and prevents visible signs of sun damage, including dark spots, fine lines and wrinkles.
The Experience
This daily sunscreen looks good, feels good AND smells good - it has a fresh, naturally derived citrus scent (no sunscreen smell here) and soft-matte finish (never greasy).
Mineral sunscreen takes longer to absorb into skin vs. chemical sunscreen. Due to the high percentage of zinc in our formulation (16.3%), depending on your skin tone, you may see a white cast that could fade over time. To help offset this mineral cast, we added in our iconic light-reflecting mineral pigment.
The SPF mineral multitasker.
This powerful sunscreen combines broad spectrum mineral SPF 30, vitamin C and banana powder-inspired pigments to protect AND correct your complexion, brightening dull, uneven skin tone over time and preventing future visible sun damage.
So, go ahead and enjoy the restorative power of the sun. While Banana Bright Sunscreen protects your complexion, you can bask in the sunlight, regulate your circadian rhythm (aka your ticket to better sleep) and increase your energy and serotonin.

Is this a chemical or physical sunscreen?
Banana Bright Mineral SPF is a physical sunscreen that contains 16.3% zinc oxide. Physical sunscreens (also called
mineral sunscreens) use mineral-based ingredients to instantly reflect and scatter harmful UV rays, acting like a
shield for your skin. The future of sunscreen is mineral!
Why did we choose a mineral sunscreen?
When it comes to SPF, Ole prefers a physical formula over a chemical one. While chemical sunscreens are
absorbed into skin, physical sunscreens are made with minerals—including zinc oxide—that sit on skin’s surface
and create a physical barrier to instantly reflect UVA and UVB rays. Physical sunscreens are also known to be better
for the environment.
Why SPF 30?
When applied correctly, SPF 30 delivers all the topical sun protection you need—in fact, it’s the recommended SPF
dosage from the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) for sun protection.
What are the benefits of this Banana Bright Mineral Sunscreen?
This mineral sunscreen not only protects but also corrects with vitamin C and niacinamide. It protects skin from
UVA and UVB rays and reduces the look of existing sun damage, such as dullness, uneven tone and fine lines and
wrinkles.
What is the texture of this sunscreen?
This sunscreen has a unique creamy yet lightweight (not greasy) texture.
What’s the finish of this sunscreen?
This sunscreen has a soft-matte finish.
Does this sunscreen leave a white cast?
Mineral sunscreen takes longer to absorb into skin vs. chemical sunscreen. Due to the high percentage of zinc in
our formulation (16.3%), depending on your skin tone, you may see a white cast that could fade over time. To help
offset this mineral cast, we added in our iconic light-reflecting mineral pigments.
Glow Tip: Moisturize before applying your sunscreen! Mineral sunscreen blends best when your skin is ultra-hydrated.
Is this sunscreen scented?
This product has an uplifting and energizing citrus scent and contains less than 1% synthetic fragrance. It was
rigorously tested for safety, toxicity and allergens.

Reviews
Sunny side Up!
"This is my favorite, every day SPF. It has a lovely scent of summer fruits, a great texture that soaks in fast, and just the right amount of tint that works to even out skin tone."
Smells lovely and works
"Wore everyday during my last trip to Bermuda and it worked wonderfully"
my very best one
"just buy itttt"
Good
"Excel product"
Nice, but it should be BIGGER!
"This is a nice sunscreen. It doesn’t leave your face feeling greasy and looking white. But why is it only sold in small amounts when sunscreen is one of the most important applications you should be doing?"
The best effective sunscreen!
"I was initially skeptical about buying a scented sunscreen for my sensitive skin but this sunscreen didn’t bother my skin at all. I liked how quickly it absorbed into my skin, that it didn’t look chalky and worked as advertised. It’s a great product and will repurchase when this tube is low."

"Lightweight sunscreen with great coverage"
Love it. Now my fave!
"This is now my daily sunscreen. I like that it’s slightly tinted, not too watery or thick and it has the signature citrus scent which I love from all of Ole Henriksen products. And goes great under makeup. I apply it all over my face, neck and chest. I hope it will come in a larger size."
Super great!
"Mineral sunscreen with a tint?! Yes please"
