Herbs of Kedem Magen Sunscreen SPF 30, 100 ml Ointment

Magen Sunscreen from Herbs of Kedem is a natural SPF 30 ointment for everyday sun care. This 100 ml tube pairs zinc oxide with shea butter and plant oils in a water-free formula.

Magen Sunscreen with Zinc Oxide and Shea Butter

This ointment spreads as a rich, creamy layer that sits comfortably on exposed skin. Zinc oxide is the mineral at its core, and shea butter, coconut oil, and jojoba oil add softness. The formula contains no added water, so it is highly concentrated, and a thin layer goes a long way. Helichrysum extract, also known as everlasting, brings a gentle herbal note. The tube is compact enough for a beach bag, a stroller, or a hiking pack. It suits beach days, long walks, and playground afternoons. Herbs of Kedem developed it as Israel's first sunscreen made only from natural ingredients.

• Zinc oxide gives the formula its mineral SPF 30 sun filter.
• Shea butter, cocoa butter, and beeswax create a rich, smooth texture.
• Avocado, jojoba, sunflower, and grape seed oils keep skin feeling soft.

How to Use

Apply Magen sunscreen to exposed skin before going out into the sun, then massage it in until absorbed. Applying twice in a row builds a generous, even layer over every exposed area. Reapply every two hours, and again after sweating, swimming, or drying with a towel. If you use a face cream, apply the ointment after it for an easy, smooth finish. For a complete routine, add the Herbs of Kedem eye cream and the Sheleg brightening cream in the evening. Results vary from person to person.
