New Clean Screen Mineral SPF30 Mattifying Face Sunscreen Broad Spectrum contains a nano-free version of zinc oxide.

REN has launched a new ‘clean’ sunscreen that is said to provide UV protection without damaging aquatic ecosystems.

New Clean Screen Mineral SPF30 Mattifying Face Sunscreen Broad Spectrum contains a nano-free version of zinc oxide to help provide UVA, UVB and blue light protection, while antioxidant yellow passion fruit seed extract supports the skin’s natural defence against free radical damage.

In addition, rice starch helps provide a silky, matte finish to skin, reducing the appearance of pores and shine, while soothing sun exposed skin.

The cream is housed in a 100% PCR PP cap and a 59% PCR PP tube in line with the brand’s environmental commitments.

The new sunscreen is available now, priced at £30
