🩺 Clinical
Fruit of the Earth Sun Town City Mineral SPF 30 Sunscreen is a topical lotion containing two mineral-based active ingredients, titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. Both ingredients function as physical sun filters that reflect and scatter ultraviolet radiation away from the skin. This product is marketed as an over-the-counter sunscreen under the FDA's monograph rule for sunscreen drugs, meaning it follows established safety and effectiveness guidelines for the sunscreen category rather than undergoing individual product review.
