About this sunscreen

KLAVUU Vegan Zinc Suncream is an SPF50+ mineral sunscreen formulated on Zinc Oxide, a filter generally favored for gentle, sensitive-skin wear. It delivers a matte finish with low white cast and a lightweight texture that avoids a heavy mask feel. It does not commonly sting and is low on pore-clogging, though it sits only okay under makeup. With moderate protection and a 70/100 score, it is a dependable matte mineral choice for daily use.
