🩺 Clinical
PROJECT REEF Mineral Sunscreen SPF-50 is a topical lotion containing two mineral-based UV filters, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. These ingredients are commonly used in sunscreen products to reflect and scatter ultraviolet light away from the skin. This is an over-the-counter monograph drug, meaning it is marketed under established FDA rules for sunscreen products rather than through a separate new-drug application.
