About this sunscreen

Dr. Jart+ Silver Label BB Beauty Balm is an SPF 35 tinted balm using Titanium Dioxide, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, and 4-Methylbenzylidene Camphor. It wears with a matte finish and a low white cast, feels lightweight, and is generally low on pore-clogging, while working well as a makeup base. Protection is rated weak, which is common for lower SPF BB-style products. At 49.0/100 it is best viewed as a cosmetic base rather than a primary sun-protection layer.
