Here's what our community thinks
Good Molecules Sheer Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 32 ingredients
Probably one of the best zinc based sunscreens I’ve used. Feels a lot less heavy than the others and over time feels a lot less sticky. Definitely has a white cast though. And I’m pretty pale mind you. Not super noticeable but it is there.
Not my daily sunscreen though. I use it once or twice a week because my acne proneness responds well to zinc.
I was so sad when I ran out of this product, it left no white cast, (minimal on my arm as I have arm hair, but really good considering I’m part south Asian, so I’m tan/brown), and super convenient and easy to use. One of my favorite minerals, just wish it was a higher spf and bigger tube/size.
