  1. Shake well. Mineral filters settle.

  3. Apply in two thin layers rather than one thick one, and let it set for a minute before makeup.
  4. Reapply every two hours of direct sun exposure, and after swimming, sweating or toweling off.
  5. Remove in the evening with the Gel-to-Milk Cleanser.
  • Store below 25 °C, away from direct sunlight

  • Use within 6 months of opening
  • Keep each product in its own container; a refill pouch goes only into its matching Seravane jar

Questions

Asked about Fluid Mineral SPF 46

Which tint should I choose?

Untinted suits fair skin and anyone who wears foundation over it. Light–Medium covers fair-olive through tan. Medium–Deep is for tan through deep skin tones. The tinted shades have a satin finish with no chalk.

Does it leave a white cast?

The untinted shade can leave a slight cast on medium and deeper skin, as any 16% zinc formula will. That is exactly why there are two tinted shades: the iron oxides offset the white of the zinc.

Is it water-resistant?

We do not publish a water-resistance claim for it. What we stand behind is on the label: SPF 46, broad spectrum, reapplied every two hours of direct exposure and after swimming, sweating or toweling off.

Does it pill under makeup?

It is formulated not to. Two thin layers, a minute to set, and makeup goes over it. It layers well over the Ceramide Serum and the Niacinamide 6% Fluid.

What do the iron oxides do?

They tint the formula, and iron oxides also give protection in the visible-light range, which the untinted shade does not.

Is it mineral only?

Yes. The only filter is non-nano zinc oxide at 16%. There are no chemical filters.

Can I subscribe?

Yes. It is one of the four products available on subscription, at 10% off each delivery.

  1. Danielle O.

    Verified buyer

    Combination, deeper skin tone

    No gray cast in Medium–Deep

    The first mineral sunscreen I have used in the Medium–Deep tint that does not turn gray on me by lunchtime. It sits under foundation without rolling into little balls.

  2. Freya M.

    Verified buyer

    Normal, fair-olive

    Replaced my tinted moisturizer

    Light–Medium on its own is enough coverage for me on most days.

  3. Nikhil R.

    Verified buyer

    Oily, medium skin tone

    Great, but shake it

    The first squeeze was oily because I did not shake it. Once shaken it is a smooth fluid with a satin finish. A reminder on the cap would help.

  4. Callie J.

    Verified buyer

    Combination, medium skin tone

    Untinted shows on my skin

    I ordered Untinted and on my medium-tan skin it leaves a visible cast. The product page does warn about this. I exchanged for Light–Medium through the returns portal and that one works.

  5. Esther B.

    Verified buyer

    Sensitive

    Does not sting my eyes

    I run outdoors and chemical sunscreens run into my eyes. This one stays put and does not sting.

  6. Malik T.

    Verified buyer

    Normal, deep skin tone

    A mineral SPF for dark skin, finally

    Medium–Deep blends in completely on me. No purple, no gray.

  7. Hazel C.

    Verified buyer

    Combination, tan skin tone

    Wish there were a shade in between

    Light–Medium is slightly light on me and Medium–Deep slightly dark. I mix a little of each and it works, but a fourth shade would be welcome.

  8. Bridget L.

    Verified buyer

    Oily, wears makeup daily

    No pilling over the serum

    Ceramide Serum, then this, then makeup. Nothing rolls.

  9. Aaron P.

    Verified buyer

    Sensitive

    After a laser session

    My clinic told me to use mineral only afterward. This was comfortable on very touchy skin.

  10. Sienna K.

    Verified buyer

    Normal, deep skin tone

    Kept selling out in my shade

    The sunscreen is good. I am giving two stars because Medium–Deep was out of stock for weeks this summer, which is when I needed it most.

  11. Lydia F.

    Verified buyer

    Dry

    Satin, not shiny

    It gives a soft finish and has no scent. My daily one now, on subscription.
