Photostable Gold SPF 55 Matte Finish Sunscreen Gel is suitable for protecting the skin from sun damage and preventing pigmentation, but it does not lighten existing dark spots. It has a matte, lightweight gel texture that absorbs quickly and is generally non-greasy. When applied, it usually does not cause the skin to appear dark or leave a white cast, although a slight sheen may be noticeable on very dark skin. Overall, it is suitable for daily use to protect against sun-induced pigmentation.
