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.
