🩺 Clinical
Luminous Sunscreen SPF 50 is a topical cream containing two mineral UV-filtering agents: titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. These ingredients are commonly used together 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 FDA's established rules for sunscreen products rather than as a separately approved application.
