Is the Kinlo Always Golden Body Lotion SPF 30 mineral or chemical?

It is a pure mineral body sunscreen using Zinc Oxide as its only UV filter.

Does the Kinlo Always Golden Body Lotion SPF 30 leave a white cast?

White cast is unlikely. The ghost-mode rating is low, which is uncommon for a zinc formula, so it should stay close to invisible.

Is it good for sensitive skin?

It is generally gentle. The sweat-sting rating is low and the breakout-trigger rating is low, making it comfortable over larger areas.
