Eminence Lilikoi Mineral Defense SPF 33 is Karine's post-laser sunscreen recommendation. Pure zinc oxide (the only broad-spectrum single mineral filter) plus lilikoi fruit antioxidants. Non-irritating on reactive skin for 2 weeks post-treatment.
After Laser Genesis, IPL, or a peel, your skin is temporarily too reactive for chemical sunscreens. Eminence's Lilikoi Mineral Defense SPF 33 uses only zinc oxide — the most protective mineral filter — plus antioxidants from lilikoi fruit (passion fruit) and satsuma tangerine. My go-to recommendation for the 2 weeks after any laser treatment.
Zinc oxide is the only single ingredient approved by Health Canada that blocks both UVA and UVB independently — a true broad-spectrum single filter.
"Does it leave a white cast?" Mildly — that's the mineral filter doing its job. If you want a tinted option that hides the cast, ask me about SkinCeuticals Physical Fusion.
