I ordered this product through the Vitamin Shoppe because I was looking for a physcial sunscreen with organic ingredients. It contains 3% Z-Cote and 6% Titanium Dioxide. Additionally it contains antioxidants such as vitamin A, E, and C. The texture is runny but it dries to a semi matte finish and is somewhat helpful with oil control. A word of caution-this looks streaky/super white on skin that has not been pre-treated with a toner/astringent. Applying a moisturizer can also help the lotion blend better but I just use after my toner because I have oily skin. This product does contain Sqalene which causes breakouts for some people. The SPF 30 Terra Sport sunblocks contain chemical sunscreen in them, so this is the way to go if you are looking for something more natural. On the downside, the zinc and titanium dioxide ingredients are micronized which is contraversial in the health world. I don't recommend this for body use as it would make one look paler but for the face, its a good deal at around $8.
