About this sunscreen
LYSASKIN Ecran Solaire SPF 50+ is a chemical sunscreen with a hybrid filter set that pairs cinnamate, octocrylene, and avobenzone with a modern triazone and some titanium dioxide. It wears with a balanced, lightweight finish and keeps white cast low. It may sting more than some, so take care near the eyes, though it is generally low pore-clogging. The score of 59.9 with good protection places it in the lower-middle of this group.
