About this sunscreen
Sesderma Repaskin Transparent Sunscreen Spray SPF 30 is a chemical formula using older filters including homosalate, octocrylene and oxybenzone in a convenient spray. It dries matte with low white cast and a lightweight feel, and works under makeup, but it may sting if it reaches the eyes. At 58/100 with good protection, it is a serviceable option, though the dated filter set and SPF 30 leave room for stronger alternatives.
