DOINGWHAT Skin Tone Sun Powder

What is this product?

A skin-tone sun powder in cushion form whose front-loaded UV filters, including zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, suit those wanting tone-correcting sun protection with a mostly fragrance-free ingredient list.

What makes it different?

The list pairs mineral filters, Titanium Dioxide at 2 and Zinc Oxide at 8, with organic filters Homosalate at 6, Ethylhexyl Salicylate at 7 and a newer broad-spectrum filter at 9. Iron oxides at 10, 13 and 19 plus Manganese Violet and Ultramarines supply the skin-tone tint. No fragrance, essential oils or drying alcohols were found across the 25 items, which favors reactive skin.
