About this sunscreen

Olecea Beaute Botanical+Vitamin Sunscreen SPF 30 is a pure mineral sunscreen using Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide. It leaves a dewy finish with low white-cast risk but a somewhat heavier feel, and it is a poor fit under makeup. The formula is generally low on pore-clogging concern and does not commonly sting, which suits sensitive skin. With good protection and a score of 76.5/100, it is a decent mineral SPF 30 for low-key days.

Does Olecea Beaute Botanical+Vitamin Sunscreen leave a white cast?

It commonly does not. White-cast risk rates low despite the mineral filters, with a dewy finish, though it feels somewhat heavier on skin.

Is Olecea Beaute mineral or chemical?

It is a pure mineral sunscreen, using Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide, which suits sensitive skin.

Is it good under makeup?

Not really. It rates a poor makeup base with a dewy, heavier feel, so it is better worn on its own than under foundation.
