About this sunscreen

Givenchy L'Intemporel Blossom Fresh-Face Compact Day Cream SPF 15 PA+ is a compact day cream blending mineral filters Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide with older chemical filters. It has a balanced, lightweight finish with low white cast, does not commonly sting, and is low in pore-clogging risk. With a 64.9/100 score and only SPF 15, its protection is good but limited, so it works as light daily cover rather than primary sun defense.
