30 for 30 Sunscreen Challenge (6/30)

Today we're testing SkinCeuticals Mineral UV Defense SPF 50.

At $60 for 50ml, this is one of the more premium sunscreens in our challenge. While the formula does come with some clinical testing behind its anti-aging claims, today's focus is all about texture and wear.

Initial thoughts:
• Velvety silicone finish
• More hydrating than Anthelios Fluid
• No noticeable white cast on my skin tone
• Slight tendency to pill

After a few hours of wear, the sunscreen film held up well. Skin looked shiny, but not greasy, and the texture remained comfortable throughout the day.

⭐ Final Score: 7/10

Follow along as we test 30 sunscreens in 30 days.
