About this sunscreen
Biosolis Face Cream SPF 50+ is a fully mineral sunscreen using zinc oxide and titanium dioxide as its UV filters. It has a balanced finish and is workable under makeup, but it wears on the heavier side and carries a high level of white cast that is common for all-mineral formulas. It is low on the pore-clogging scale and does not commonly sting. With good protection and a score of 72.9/100, it is a solid clean-formula choice for those who prioritize mineral filters over a fully invisible finish.

Does the Biosolis Face Cream SPF 50+ leave a white cast?
White cast is rated high, which is common for all-mineral formulas, so expect some cast especially on deeper skin tones. The balanced finish softens the look somewhat.
Is the Biosolis Face Cream SPF 50+ mineral or chemical?
It is a fully mineral sunscreen, using zinc oxide and titanium dioxide as its UV filters. That makes it a 100 percent mineral choice.
Does it feel heavy?
It is rated on the heavier side, so it wears richer than a lightweight formula. With good protection and a score of 72.9/100, it suits those who prioritize mineral filters over an invisible finish.
