About this sunscreen
Anessa Perfect UV Sunscreen Mild Milk SPF 50 PA++++ blends mineral filters (zinc oxide, titanium dioxide) with modern chemical filters like ethylhexyl triazone and bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine for excellent broad-spectrum protection. It dries to a matte finish and feels lightweight, though the mineral content gives it a high, visible white cast. Its low breakout-trigger profile makes it generally suitable for oily skin. With a high score of 86.8 and excellent protection, it is a top performer for those who do not mind some cast.
