About this sunscreen
Skinnies Kids SPF 50 is a pure mineral sunscreen for children using Titanium Dioxide as its only UV filter. It wears lightweight with a matte finish, keeps white cast low for a mineral formula, and is gentle enough that it generally does not sting the eyes, which is helpful with kids. Makeup compatibility is okay rather than a strength. The 49.0/100 score reflects weak measured protection, so it is best treated as a light everyday layer rather than primary defense for long sun exposure.
