Key Ingredients
FAQ
Does this leave a white cast?
Yes, there will be some white cast since it uses only physical UV filters (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide). The cast is minimal on fair skin but more visible on medium to deep skin tones. This is the tradeoff for avoiding chemical UV filters, which is why it's safe for sensitive skin and children.
Is this safe for children and babies?
Yes. It's medicated (quasi-drug status in Japan) to prevent skin irritation, uses no UV-absorbing chemical filters, and is specifically formulated for sensitive skin. It's one of the few SPF50+ sunscreens in Japan marketed as safe for kids.
Why does it say medicated?
In Japan, medicated (quasi-drug) status means the product has active ingredients approved to prevent specific skin conditions. For Minon UV Mild Milk, it's formulated to prevent skin irritation and inflammation, which is why it's positioned as a gentle option for reactive or compromised skin barriers.
