Mineral Mattescreen SPF 40 — Reddit Reviews
by Supergoop!
Updated October 29, 2026
Zinc oxide SPF 40 blurs redness and shine; velvety matte finish.
What the community says
A tinted mineral SPF 40 built around 17.68% zinc oxide, with Dimethicone and Dimethicone Crosspolymer that blur and set matte. It suits oily, redness-prone skin under makeup, but dry skin may find the finish uncomfortably tight.

- Velvety texture blurs without caking
- Matte tint controls shine under makeup
Watch out for
