About this sunscreen
Soleil Toujours Perpetual Radiance Eye Glow + Illuminator SPF 15 is a 100% mineral product using Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide for broad-spectrum defense. It has a dewy, radiant finish with a low white cast and does not commonly sting, though it feels somewhat heavier on skin and is only an okay base under makeup. SPF 15 provides limited sun protection, so it is generally an illuminating eye-area touch rather than primary sun cover. The score of 80.6/100 reflects its clean filter set and comfortable wear.
