What the gurus are saying

The white cast divides reviewers on this mineral sunscreen. One expert found it thick and pasty with a strong white residue that doesn't blend well, while another praised its surprisingly mild cast for a mineral SPF 50 and noted it holds up in water. The difference may come down to skin tone and blending technique, so patch-testing first makes sense if you're concerned about visibility.

~Nay
"This is a very thick white cream much like diaper paste. Not shockingly it goes on white, it doesn't blend well, and it leaves a strong white cast."
~Yay
"I also like the mineral one. The cast on this is pretty mild for an SPF 50 mineral sunscreen and it's water resistant."
