Skincare Concerns: Dark Spots, Dryness, Dullness

What Else You Need to Know: Formulated with 100 percent non-nano zinc oxide, brightening viniferine, and smoothing niacinamide, this SPF 50 daily mineral sunscreen visibly reduces dark spots and evens skin tone while preventing visible signs of sun aging. Its non-greasy, silicone-free formula has a lightweight texture that leaves a natural glow finish and works well as a makeup base.
When using a mineral filter like zinc oxide, to reach a high SPF 50 coverage, a white cast can occur. This is due to the weight and thickness of the filter for sun protection. For best use, shake well, warm the texture, and work the product into your skin.

- 90% saw brighter skin after 14 days
