About this sunscreen
Éclat Natural Skincare Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 is a pure mineral formula using Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide. It has a balanced finish and low pore-clogging risk, but as a full mineral SPF 50 it can leave a visible white cast and feels somewhat heavier on the skin. Protection is good. At 78.5/100 it is a dependable mineral option for those who prefer zinc-and-titanium formulas.
