About this sunscreen
Every Man Jack Face Lotion Daily Sun Protection SPF 20 is a chemical sunscreen lotion using an older-generation filter set of homosalate, avobenzone and ethylhexyl salicylate. It has a balanced finish with low white cast and a lightweight feel, and its low breakout-trigger rating means it is generally suitable for acne-prone skin. Protection is rated weak at SPF 20, so it suits light daily wear rather than high sun exposure. Its score of 49/100 reflects that limited protection.
