The Paradiso Trio

Active Ingredient:

Zinc Oxide 227.5 mg/g (non-nano)

Zinc oxide (227.5 mg/g) delivers high-performance, photostable protection against both UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays. The particles sit on top of skin to deflect and scatter light rather than absorb into it, making it a gentler choice for sensitive or reactive skin. A single mineral active (no chemical filters), fragrance-free, and dermatologist-tested for daily use.

Supporting ingredients (inactive)

• Purified Water – the base so it spreads evenly.
• Medium-Chain Triglycerides (MCT oil) – lightweight, coconut-derived oil that softens without greasiness.
• Coco-octanoate/decanoate – silky emollient that helps the cream glide on.
• Dimethicone 350 – creates a smooth feel and helps reduce the appearance of white cast.
• Octyl Palmitate – leaves skin soft and comfortable.
• PEG-30 Dipolyhydroxystearate – helps oil and water blend so the formula stays uniform.
• Polyglyceryl-3 Polyricinoleate – plant-derived “blender” that keeps texture consistent.
• Glycerol Oleate – supports a smooth, moisturised feel.
• Isostearic Acid – helps stop the formula from separating.
• 1,3-Butylene Glycol – light hydrator that draws moisture to skin.
• Glycerol (Glycerin) – classic moisture magnet to keep skin comfortable.
• Beeswax (white) – gives the lotion body and helps it stay put.
• Sodium Chloride – a pinch of salt to fine-tune thickness.
• Gluconolactone – gentle skin conditioner that also helps balance pH.
• Calcium Gluconate (monohydrate) – supports skin comfort and overall balance.
• Sodium Benzoate – keeps the product fresh and safe to use.
• Polyethylene – gives the cream structure so it dispenses smoothly (used as a thickener, not as scrub “beads”).
• Xanthan Gum – sugar-based thickener for a smooth, stable texture.
• Disodium EDTA (edetate) – protects quality by neutralising tiny metal impurities in water.

Quick legend:

Emollient = softens skin; Humectant = draws water in; Emulsifier/Blender = helps oil + water stay mixed; Structurant/Thickener = gives the cream body so it spreads nicely; Pigments = provide tint/colour.
