Kinship's Self Reflect Probiotic Moisturizing Sunscreen SPF 32 boasts a gentle formula that's clean, soothing and useful for supporting a strong skin barrier. The [non-nano zinc oxide mineral sunscreen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/future-fluid) is made with turmeric and Kinship's signature Kinbiome, a plant-based probiotic. The [lightweight, non-greasy sunscreen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nongreasy-sunscreens) is said to have a [slight vanilla-turmeric scent](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/native-sunscreen) and is made to leave skin looking matte and blurred.

While there are a handful of ingredients that the average ingredient-conscious North American consumer knows to be wary of today, Kinship's products steer clear of thousands of questionable ingredients as banned by EU Cosmetic Regulations.

As well as being able to appreciate the clean, plant-based sunscreen formula, consumers will find that Self Reflect is packaged in recycled and recyclable materials, including some ocean waste plastics.
