"It's SPF 50 but only offers PA 3 plus, not 4. But overall it's a really nice one. It also contains panthenol, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid, all hydrating and soothing ingredients that can help to support the skin barrier. As far as texture, it is going to be a little more dense and in some sense harder to spread compared to the gel, just naturally being a cream. I find that in general mineral sunscreens do take a little bit more effort to spread."

"There are some patients who are sensitive to chemical UV filters and even chemical UV filters that break down in the sunlight you can become sensitized or have an allergy to those byproducts so there's some patients who want to get into K Beauty but they're not able to tolerate the UV filters. This is how you can get into the game. [...] You can tell of course it is thicker because it has zinc oxide but they do a great job, it's still very lightweight for a mineral sunscreen."

"If you like mineral sunscreen I have a suggestion: it is the Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Natural Sun Cream. This is SPF 50+ PA++++, using zinc oxide for the protection. It's actually a really light, almost essency kind of a texture, like a gel cream. It spreads in a really nice thin but protective layer and it dries quite quickly on the skin with minimal shine. There might be a little bit of dewy but it's not overly greasy and shiny like some sunscreens are."

"This is a Korean brand mineral sunscreen that does leave a white cast but it's not too bad. If you have a medium to pale skin tone it's doable, but if you have a deeper skin tone I'm not going to lie and say it doesn't leave a cast. [...] The consistency is very hydrating but not greasy. I really enjoyed it and I prefer this one to that Coco Kind one for sure."

"This is a mineral sunscreen with zinc oxide that doesn't cause irritation, which is great for very sensitive skin. However, I don't think this really offers much that is too unique compared to any other zinc oxide sunscreen out there. [...] While I think this is good, I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to reacquire this because I honestly can't tell much difference between this and many other drugstore mineral sunscreens."

"I like this one too, but I don't find this one to be as sheer as the other sunscreen options, so these are what I'm going to be using today."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide has evidence behind it for redness, uneven tone and supporting the skin barrier, and it is usually well tolerated even by skin that reacts to most things.

Sunscreen filters

Sun protection is the best evidenced way to slow visible ageing, and the filters are what does the work. Mineral and chemical filters both protect when a product is applied thickly enough and often enough, which is where most people fall short rather than on the choice of filter.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
