About this sunscreen
Cỏ mềm (CO MEM) Pure Inorganic Tone-up Sunscreen is an SPF 50+ mineral formula built on Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide, so it relies entirely on physical UV filters. As a tone-up product it is designed to brighten the skin, which is why it shows a visible white cast and has a balanced finish with a medium weight. It is gentle on the skin, low on pore-clogging concerns, and generally does not sting, though it works poorly under makeup. With a score of 76.9/100 and good protection, it is a capable mineral option for those who want the brightening tone-up effect.
