Why pharmacists picked this
A product that goes on smoothly without leaving a white cast and is perfect for colored skin. A must during pregnancy! In addition to cancer risk, the dark facial patches triggered by UV, melasma, are common in pregnancy, and daily sunscreen is the main way to limit it.

Pros
- 40 minutes water and sweat resistant
- Tint matches most skin tones and evens out your skin color
- Absorbs quickly into skin
- Won't clog pores
Cons
- Titanium dioxide mainly protects against UVB rays (sunburn) but doesn't protect against all UVA rays (skin aging and wrinkles)
- Small bottle - good for face use but you'll run out quickly if using on your whole body
- Can leave a white cast on darker or black skin
- Some people don't like the natural smell since it has no added fragrance to cover it
Titanium dioxide creates a physical barrier on the skin's surface that reflects and scatters UV rays away from the skin, rather than absorbing them.
