About this sunscreen
Dr. Ceuracle Pro Balance Toning Sun Cream SPF50+ PA++++ is a 100% mineral sunscreen that relies on titanium dioxide alone. It is lightweight with a balanced finish and a low white cast, does not sting, and is low on pore-clogging, so it is gentle on sensitive skin. Because the protection is rated weak on a single mineral filter, the score is capped at 49.0/100. It is best viewed as a light tone-up cream rather than a primary sun shield.
