About this sunscreen

Make P:rem UV Defense Me No Sebum Sun Cream is a pure mineral sunscreen using only Zinc Oxide. It is built for oily skin with a matte, no-sebum finish that wears lightweight, though zinc can leave a medium white cast on some tones. Sting is low and breakout risk is low, so it generally suits sensitive and acne-prone skin. Protection rates moderate and the score is 71.4/100, making it a reasonable mattifying mineral option for oilier complexions.
