"It's a chemical sunscreen that comes out kind of peachy in coloration but goes on with no white cast or chalkiness. I love that it's fragrance-free, in contrast to the La Roche-Posay version of this, which has a strong fragrance that I find offensive and that lingers. But this one is even more expensive than the La Roche-Posay version, which I find annoying, and it does not need to be as expensive as it is."

"This is one of the newest products, the Kiehl's Autotone discoloration and UV solution, and it's SPF 30. What it has is this new ingredient called Meliso that was developed by L'Oréal, and they have tried to revamp the way we attack hyperpigmentation. Hyperpigmentation involves too much melanin being produced. We have tyrosinase inhibitors, tyrosinase being an enzyme that creates melanin. If we block that enzyme, we hope to make less melanin and less dark spots."
