About this sunscreen
InoPharm Sun Cream Body SPF 30 is a pure mineral sunscreen built on Zinc Oxide alone, so it suits those who prefer to avoid chemical filters. It is a richer, heavier body cream with a dewy finish and high ghost-mode, so a visible white cast is likely. Eye sting is generally not an issue and the low breakout-trigger is a plus, but its weight and poor makeup compatibility make it a body-first choice. The 61.0 score and moderate SPF 30 protection make it an acceptable mineral body option.

Does InoPharm Sun Cream leave a white cast?
It can. It is a pure Zinc Oxide formula rated high for ghost-mode, so a visible white cast is likely, which is common for body mineral creams.
Is the InoPharm Sun Cream Body SPF 30 mineral or chemical?
It is fully mineral. The only UV filter is Zinc Oxide, so it suits people who want to avoid chemical filters.
Is it good for the face and under makeup?
It is better as a body cream. It is heavier with a dewy finish and rates poorly as a makeup base, so it is not the best face or under-makeup pick.
