About this sunscreen
Eco Cosmetics Sensitive Sun Spray SPF 50 is a pure mineral spray relying on Titanium Dioxide alone. It has a dewy finish but can leave a visible white cast, while it does not commonly sting, which may suit sensitive skin. Protection is rated weak and the score of 49.0 sits at the low end, so it is best viewed as a gentle mineral option rather than a high-defense sunscreen.
