About this sunscreen
AA Aloes Pink BB Cream SPF 15 is a lightly tinted BB cream using an older-generation filter pair, Phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic Acid with titanium dioxide. It keeps white cast low with a balanced, lightweight feel and is gentle without stinging, and it is generally low in pore-clogging risk. At SPF 15 the protection is weak, however, and the score of 49.0/100 reflects that it suits light, incidental sun rather than dedicated UV defense.
