About this sunscreen
Eucerin Anti-Pigment Day SPF 30 Tinted is a tinted chemical sunscreen with a hybrid filter set, combining avobenzone (Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane) with modern filters like Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, Ethylhexyl Triazone, and Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate. It wears with a balanced finish, low white cast, and a lightweight feel, and it generally works well under or in place of makeup. Pore-clogging risk is low, though it may sting somewhat near the eyes. With excellent protection and a strong 83.2/100, it is a well-rounded daily face sunscreen.
