A Boomer and a Millennial Put Hailey Bieber’s Fave Kosas Mineral Sunscreen to the Test
Kosas Tinted Face Oil SPF 45 and SPF 50 Sheer Dry Touch Mineral Sunscreen: The Formulas
Kosas’ mineral sunscreens come in two formulas: a tinted face oil with SPF 45 and a sheer dry touch sunscreen with SPF 50. The tinted oil supposedly leaves a subtle glow and hydrates the skin while protecting from UV rays, while the dry touch formula is oil-, fragrance- and paraben-free for those with oily skin. Both are fragrance-free, reef-safe and formulated with non-nano zinc oxide to provide broad-spectrum protection.
Beauty Editor’s Review: I’m in Love With This Sunscreen
As someone with sensitive skin, I tend to avoid chemical sunscreens, so I was excited to try a mineral formula like Kosas’. The tinted SPF 45 oil is my favorite—it leaves such a nice glow and doubles as a primer. It absorbs quickly without feeling heavy or greasy. I’ve been using it daily for over a month now, and my skin looks healthier and happier than ever. The dry touch SPF 50 formula is great for warmer weather since it’s a bit less dewy, though it’s still not drying. Both are non-irritating and fragrance-free, so they’re perfect for sensitive skin like mine. I will continue to use and recommend these sunscreens wholeheartedly!
Lifestyle Editor’s Review: I’m Always Red and Peely, So Mineral Sunscreen Is a Must
As someone who chronically burns and peels, mineral sunscreen is kind of a must for me. I’ve tried chemical sunscreens in the past, but they always seem to irritate my skin or fade mid-day, leaving me less protected than I’d like. So far, the Kosas tinted SPF 45 oil and SPF 50 dry touch formula have been life-savers during this brutal summer. They provide broad-spectrum protection without clogging pores or causing breakouts, and they actually seem to soothe my skin rather than irritate it. The tinted oil is perfect for an easy glowy look, while the dry touch is ideal for activities or beach days. No redness or peeling yet—I’m impressed. Mineral sunscreens have revolutionized my summer, and I’m all here for it!
