I'm... shocked by this. While I'm never going to regularly use a mineral sunscreen that's only SPF 30, this one may be a good one to check out. The cast is EXTREMELY minimal, only showing up a little bit in my eyebrows and my hairline. Didn't sting my eyes, unsurprisingly. The texture is a runny lotion that glides onto the skin with a semi-matte finish and it's easy to rub in. I still prefer SPF 50 and higher products, but if you are determined to find a mineral sunscreen and don't mind the lower SPF, you may like this.
