[SUN CARE] Alba Botanica fragrance free mineral sun lotion review

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I got this sunscreen 2 weeks ago for about $9 on Amazon and have been testing it almost every day.Ingredient highlights: lots of emollient oils, shea butter, 14.5% zinc oxide, 2% titanium dioxideTexture: It's a very thick cream that remind me of heavy paint, and it makes application a bit of a pain since there's so much friction. It doesn't get thinner when warmed up on the fingers.White cast: Straight out of the tube, it's a very opaque chalky white. After working it into the skin (which takes some time), the cast is mostly gone, but it leaves a slight "tone-up" effect on me, which isn't what everyone wants. I think the cast does get better when it sets down.Finish: On me, it's a velvety natural finish: not dewy, not matte either. It starts off quite tacky and sets down eventually. I use a thin layer of moisturizer underneath, and my skin feels moisturized with the sunscreen on. It wears well under the super light makeup I wear (concealer, blush, a bit of eyeliner).It's definitely not bad for the $9 it's worth and is probably better than a lot of sunscreens in the sub-$20 range (in terms of white cast etc). I'll probably use this on my body this summer.
