It’s a chemical sunscreen that contains organic filters and a hybrid filter for both UVA and UVB to provide a broad spectrum UV coverage for the skin. It absorbs fairly quickly and has a hydrating finish at the end. The sunscreen does settle nicely into the skin without leaving a greasy and does not pills with other products. Although it does leave a very subtle white on the skin after application due to the hybrid Tinosorb M, it is almost unnoticeable. Unfortunately, this sunscreen does have a fragrance in its formulation.
