People Say

★4.4Overall rating based on 200+ reviews

This mineral sunscreen is well-loved by those with sensitive and oily-combination skin for its gentle, non-irritating formula and elegant satin finish that avoids greasiness. While often noted for minimal white cast among mineral SPFs, users with medium to deep skin tones frequently observe a noticeable white cast or "tone-up" effect that requires significant blending.
