About this sunscreen
Mayben Baby And Kids Sunscreen is an SPF 50 mineral formula built on zinc oxide alone, a common choice for sensitive and younger skin. It has a balanced finish and a medium feel, with a moderate chance of slight white cast typical of zinc-based creams. It is generally gentle, low on stinging and low on pore-clogging. Protection lands in the moderate range, so reapplication is sensible during long sun exposure.
