Niacinamide SPF 50+ gives dewy, makeup-friendly daily protection; weak for sweaty outdoor exposure.

What the community says

This creamy chemical sunscreen doubles as morning moisturizer, with niacinamide and rice extracts under makeup. Best on dry, sensitive, or tret-treated skin seeking glow; oily skin may get greasy, and active outdoor wear demands something more water-resistant.
