MY EXPERIENCE
I was really excited when I received this oat & zinc sunscreen from the brand. All the ingredients and physical filters they used are amazing. Since it is a physical sunscreen, I knew it will give a white cast, but it takes time to blend and leaves a white cast. White is too much that it will make you look like a ghost. Only white cast is the thing which makes this sunscreen non-wearable for me.
PROS
- Amazing physical filters.
- Settles to a velvet matte finish.
- Beautiful texture.
CONS
It gives a terrible white cast.
WILL I RECOMMEND
No, I will not recommend this mineral sunscreen as it gives a bad white cast which does not settle after 1 minute as the brand claims.
WILL I REPURCHASE
No, I will not repurchase this sunscreen.
