Product description
Many moisturisers with chemical sunscreens make people break out, this much-loved day cream simply protects & leaves your face looking peachy. The Zinc Oxide & botanical ingredients are non-comodegenic - they won't plug your pores - this mineral SPF rests on the skin's surface acting like a mirror to reflect all the harmful UV rays, without leaving a white residue. This moisturiser is lightweight & matte, so it works well under make up; it contains Vitamin E, Sage leaf & Sandalwood extracts.
Why it's cult
Aesop manages to be both beautiful and practical, a hybrid of old school and new tech disciplines. The bottles are brown glass, because it protects product from degrading UV rays allowing them to use fewer preservatives. The range is balanced between nature & technology because that's where they've found the best results, the fact that the botanicals make it smell divine & the bottles look beautiful is a happy bi-product of being focused on the best strategy to create gorgeous skin.

User reviews of Aesop Sage & Zinc Facial Hydrating Cream SPF15
Excellent sun block / moisturiser

By AnnD, Education, Thirties, Melbourne
I'm allergic to sunblocks made from the standard (cheap/filler) ingredients. Zinc block is fine on my skin but I don't normally like the metallic sheen it imparts. I have occasionally mixed it with Nars Sheer-glow for a tinted sun-block. Works beautifully!
