FAQ
Q. The Ahte Sunscreen is mineral — does it leave a white cast?
89 reviews say there's little white cast and 42 say there is one. Since it's an ivory formula, many say it evens out tone rather than looking chalky. However, the impression can differ depending on your skin shade.
Q. What about eye sting?
60 reviews say it doesn't sting the eyes, and a common context is choosing this product to avoid eye sting. It varies by person, so try a small amount around the eyes first.
Q. Is it okay for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

Reviews saying it's moist are common at 163, but 77 also say it feels tight over time. Some reviews say the impression differs by season, so dry skin is better off moisturizing thoroughly before applying.
