About this sunscreen
Dermatouch Undamage Ultra Matte Sunscreen Gel is a combination sunscreen at SPF 50 PA+++, blending Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate and modern filters with Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide. Despite the matte-gel branding it carries a visible white cast and wears on the medium side for weight, with a balanced finish. It does not sting and is generally low on pore-clogging potential, with okay performance under makeup. With a score of 77.2 and excellent protection, it protects well but the cast is worth noting.
