About this sunscreen
KUDRA SPF +50 Gunes Koruyucu Krem is a pure mineral sunscreen relying on zinc oxide alone. It tends to wear dewy and heavier with a visible white cast, and is best applied on its own since it works poorly under makeup. It does not sting, which suits sensitive skin, but with only moderate protection it lands at 67.1/100, an average mineral option.

Does KUDRA SPF +50 leave a white cast?
It can. White cast is rated high because it is a pure zinc oxide formula, so it may show a visible whitening, especially on deeper skin tones.
Is the KUDRA SPF +50 Güneş Koruyucu Krem mineral or chemical?
It is a pure mineral sunscreen, protected by zinc oxide alone with no chemical filters, which suits those who prefer a mineral-only option.
Does it work under makeup?
Not really. It is rated poor as a makeup base and tends to feel heavier and dewy, so it is better worn on its own than under foundation.
