Overview

CeraVe's 5 ounce SPF 30 sunscreen blends zinc oxide with chemical filters, adding hyaluronic acid and ceramides for face and body use, and is paraben-free and fragrance-free.

CeraVe positions this as a hybrid mineral-chemical formula rather than a pure mineral sunscreen, using zinc oxide alongside chemical filters to reach broad-spectrum SPF 30 coverage. It's rated water resistant for 80 minutes, with hyaluronic acid and ceramides carried over from CeraVe's core moisturizing line. Amazon's sales rank data show it placing within the top 200 facial sunscreens listed on the site.

  • SPF 30 broad spectrum protection
  • Zinc oxide plus chemical filters
  • Ceramides and hyaluronic acid
  • Water resistant for 80 minutes

Who it's for

Suits anyone wanting daily SPF 30 protection with CeraVe's ceramide and hyaluronic acid base, including sensitive skin given the fragrance-free formulation. Less relevant for anyone specifically wanting a mineral-only sunscreen with no chemical filters.
