About this sunscreen

Torriden Dive-In Daily Suncream is a pure-mineral formula using Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide. It sets to a matte finish and rarely stings, but as a mineral sunscreen it can leave a visible white cast, and its weight is moderate. Pore- clogging risk is low and it sits okay under makeup. It scores 77.7/100, a solid mineral choice with good protection if the cast is not a dealbreaker.
