Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

I love this sunscreen! It does it's job well but doesn't feel greasy/gross on my skin, which is a pretty big thing for me as I have sensory issues with sunscreens and have struggled to find one that I like. It also doesn't clog my pores or break me out even though I have acne prone skin that is also quite sensitive. Highly recommend!
