About this sunscreen
Suntegrity ClearSPF Sheer Moisturizing Daily Sunscreen SPF 30 is a pure mineral formula built on zinc oxide, so it relies on a single broad-spectrum mineral filter. The finish is balanced and the wear is medium, with a medium likelihood of a faint white cast that is common with zinc-based sunscreens. It does not sting and is low on pore-clogging, making it generally friendly for sensitive and acne-prone skin, and it layers okay under makeup. With moderate protection and a score of 70.1/100, it is a reasonable daily moisturizing option rather than a high-output choice.
