What to know about non-comedogenic sunscreens with no white cast
Our non-comedogenic score reads the ingredient list for known pore-clogging emollients and oils, so a high score means the formula is unlikely to trigger breakouts.
The white cast score reads the mineral filter load against any tint, and this pairs with non-comedogenic because acne-prone users often want a clear finish without resorting to heavy, pore-clogging coverage to hide a cast.
Frequently asked questions
Do non-comedogenic sunscreens leave a white cast?
It depends on the filters, not the comedogenic rating. Our score reads the ingredient list separately for pore-clogging risk and white cast so you can find a formula that is clear on both.
Are chemical sunscreens less likely to leave a cast?
Generally yes, since chemical filters are clear, while mineral filters can look pale. Our score reads the ingredient list for mineral load and any tint so you can judge the finish.
