Why we picked it
Utu packs its face sunscreen in an aluminum tube and an FSC-certified cardboard box, and says both go in with paper and aluminum recycling. The only filter is 20.8% non-nano zinc oxide in a moisturizing base made for daily wear. The tube crimps flat as you use it up. A 0.6 fl oz travel tube costs half as much and suits a first try.
What it’s made of
Aluminum tube, FSC-certified cardboard box; zinc oxide cream. Chosen for what it’s made of, not what it’s wrapped in.
