About this sunscreen

Colo Sunscreen Body Lotion SPF 25+ is a pure mineral (titanium dioxide) body lotion. It wears with a balanced finish and is generally gentle and low on pore-clogging concerns, but as a mineral formula it can leave a moderate white cast and sits poorly under makeup. Its measured protection comes out weak and the score is 49, so it is a basic low-SPF mineral option.
