Zinka Colored Sunblock Zinc Nosecoat - White

I use it sailing. Yes, the tube is small, but you only need a smear on the nose and lips, so will last for years.

Does what it says on the tin

Really poor protection.

The tube is tiny - 17 gm, the size of my forefinger but slimmer. I am used to buying zinc oxide cream in small jars for a fraction of this price when I lived overseas. It may be fine - but the price is exorbitant for the size of tube.

Nice product but bit smaller in size

Perfect. I use this for cricket, was looking for something which does not need reapplication every 2 hours. This stays on for the entire day and you can match this with the colour of your jersey. It holds well in water as well. Easy to remove with a piece of cloth.

I can't believe they still make Zinka, I used it back in the late 80s - it's a fantastic product! The protective ingredient Zinc Oxide acts as a sunblock and not a sunscreen. Meaning it reflects UVA/UVB rays away from the skin. It works in all weather conditions. Though the tube is small "very little" goes a long way. The consistency is a little thicker than sunscreen and stays in place without coming even in water, you have to physically remove it. I use it on areas of my face when outdoors and it still holds up just as well as it did years ago. They now come in different colors, but I went back to the original I used to use and purchased in the color white. No regrets. Highly recommend Zinka.

Works very well

I like this product because it works. I am outside in the sun a lot, working in very hot weather. This definitely provides the protection I need and I have had no sun burn at all. I also feel that it has a moisturizing affect. Now- it is greasy and leaves a white residue. Not to be used if you are trying to look pretty. It's a functional sun block that does it job. Ideal for my needs.
