Product overview
Simple Tinted Mineral Sun Block Cream 125ml is a facial sunscreen marketed under the "Mineral" and "Tinted" names, formulated for use as part of a Simple skincare routine.
Important naming note: despite "Mineral" appearing in the product name, the confirmed ingredient list for this product shows a chemical (organic) UV filter system only -- Octocrylene, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Avobenzone, Octinoxate, and Ensulizole -- with no Zinc Oxide or Titanium Dioxide (the mineral filters) present in either of two independently checked ingredient panels. Similarly, no iron oxide or other recognizable colorant ingredient was found to support the "Tinted" claim; what produces any tint, if present, could not be confirmed. These naming discrepancies are disclosed here rather than asserted as accurate. The exact PA rating is also inconsistent between retailer sources (PA+++ vs PA++++) and should be confirmed against physical packaging.
