What the gurus are saying

This mineral sunscreen with 17.5% zinc oxide achieves a sheer finish with minimal white cast despite being completely untinted, gurus praise how cleanly it sits under makeup and works alongside other skincare products without pilling. Most find it lightweight and ideal for makeup application; however, some hold that the cheaper original has better shade cast and is the better value.

"This does not get the cast pass but the original does is cheaper"

"I really did like it. It sat nicely underneath my makeup and it really didn't give that much of a white cast to my skin, and it sits nicely just on its own as well. It's also very moisturizing on the skin, it's not sticky, it's not gross, it's actually quite lightweight as well. This has a zinc oxide of 17.5%, and this is also not water resistant, so if you're looking for a water resistant formulation this isn't it, but this is great for everyday just running errands. I would consider this again in the future."

"This is one that I don't reach for a lot but I do like to use this one occasionally, and I feel like the mini size is perfect also if you want something small in your bag as well, something that you can reapply throughout the day. This formula is great for all skin types, it's really lightweight, and there are antioxidant properties in here as well which help to protect your skin from the environment. It has zinc oxide of 17.5 percent and I don't feel like I get a white cast with this one either. This one is a true sheer mineral screen, and I've never had an issue with pilling with this one. It's also great with other skincare products."

"This is the only non-tinted one and it has 17.5% zinc oxide. This is an amazing sunscreen in my opinion because it leaves an extremely minimal white cast on the skin even though it has no tinting in it, and that is a very hard thing to accomplish with a mineral sunscreen. Supergoop is able to achieve this with their sheer matrix technology and it finishes lightweight on the skin. Get this if you want to wear makeup over it or if you want to tint your own sunscreen. It is not my first choice as a sunscreen to wear totally alone."

What the evidence says.

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

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.
