About this sunscreen
Yadah Oh My Sun Protection Tone Up Base SPF 50+ PA++++ is a pure mineral tone-up base using Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide. It gives a matte finish and has low pore-clogging risk, but as a tone-up product it can leave a visible white cast and feels somewhat heavier on the skin. Protection is good. At 78.7/100 it is a solid mineral base, best for those who want the brightening effect rather than an invisible finish.
