About this sunscreen
Kabana Green Screen Organic Sunscreen SPF 31 in the neutral tint is a pure mineral formula relying on zinc oxide. It has a dewy finish with a low white cast, sits a little heavier on the skin, and is generally low on the pore-clogging scale, though it works poorly as a makeup base. With moderate rated protection and a score of 67.8 out of 100, it is a reasonable choice for those who prefer an all-mineral, tinted sunscreen.
