The Edyt Score
4.3 / 5.0
Targets
4.3/5
For everyday face SPF if you want mineral and can take a little cast. Deeper skin will still see white if you under-rub.
Formula standards
4.3/5
Lighter than a beach zinc. Still mineral. Rub it in for a full minute.
The verdict
A decent first mineral if chemical filters sting. Reapply. It is still sunscreen.
