Is the ASTALIFT D-UV Clear White Solution good for oily skin?
It has a matte finish and is rated low on the pore-clogging scale, so it generally suits oily and acne-prone skin. It is also rated a good base under makeup.
Does the ASTALIFT D-UV Clear White Solution SPF 50+ Pa++++ leave a white cast?
White cast is rated low, so it generally wears clear despite using titanium dioxide. The matte finish keeps it looking even.
Is it mineral or chemical?
It is a hybrid, pairing mineral titanium dioxide with the chemical filter butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane. So it sits between the two categories.
