life saver

This is one of the only sunscreens I can use as a makeup primer and not have any worries. I also use a prescription strength retinol and this has kept my skin from blistering when exposed to sun. I have extremely fair skin that is prone to freckles and also have eczema.

Worth the Price

I have been using this product for 3 weeks now, and I really do love it. There is no smell, it is thick but a little goes a LONG way. I have acne prone, oily skin and it melts nicely into my skin and DOES not pill up. I do feel it leaves a light white cast but once I have applied my makeup its gone. I am shade "Sand" in Estee Lauder for my winter shade if that helps, again not a crazy white cast but it does leave some. I have used this sunscreen under EL, Huda, Urban Decay, and the new KVD foundation. NO issues.

The best sunscreen handsdown!!!!

this is the best sunscreen I've ever used. I've used a lot, trust me. I've used Dr.Jart, Tatcha, supergoop, korean sunscreens etc etc. This is hands down the best. No fragrance, no irritants, not a huge white cast if you rub it in well into your skin. The dark spot correcting skincare benefit is another huge plus. My skin looks fawless. Does not clog my pores or irritate my skin whatsoever. please try this, you won't be disappointed

perfect for my fair and sensitive skin

TLDR: perfect for sensitive, fair skin, gentle enough that i can apply it around my eyes, has improved hyperpigmentation & would rate 5 stars if darker skin tones had a better experience. now, as somebody with sensitive & fair skin who is prone to dermatitis and rosacea, my personal experience with this product has been incredible. this spf contains thoughtful skincare ingredients such as vitamin C & vitamin E that which has helped reduce acne scarring with consistent use. it melts in to my skin beautifully and pairs perfectly with my current moisturizing creams. i know that zinc in spf is not everybody’s friend and it’s unfortunate that so many people have a bad experience with this product because it is very well formulated, for sensitive skin especially. hopefully this brand can create a similar product w/ less titanium dioxide/zinc so darker skin tones can enjoy it too

Lifesaver for acne prone skin

I have tried almost every sunscreen recommended for rosacea and acne-prone skin by the internet lists and beauty “experts”, and this is the only one that has worked. I love the skincare ingredients that make me feel like I am treating my skin, and not just protecting it.

Use every day!

This is my go-to sunscreen. I’m 61 with dry dehydrated sensitive skin. Applies easily. Doesn’t irritate my skin or sting my eyes. Dries down well. Virtually no scent so no scent triggered migraines. This is a win!!

Ideal Face Sunscreen!

This sunscreen is amazing. It goes on more like a face-lotion than a sunscreen, absorbs quickly, and leaves my skin so soft, not tacky like others I've used. I got a full-sized sample in a sun protection set, and this was my favorite hands-down. Alongside SuperGoop, it's one of the only sunscreens that I trust and that feels super comfy over or under makeup and leaves no residue!

Holy grail sunscreen

This is my holy grail sunscreen. I have extremely sensitive skin but this doesn't bother me at all. It has a nice texture that feels moisturizing but not oily and is a great base for my makeup.

Odd Smell

I am sensitive to fragrances, and this has an unpleasant smell that is hard for me to get over. Other than that, it absorbs quickly and doesn't leave a white film like other mineral sunscreens, so I am thankful for that. I nearly returned it because of the smell, but I am going to give it a try.

Clogs my pores and pills under makeup

I got this as part of a sunscreen sampler kit. It left a visible white cast on my light-medium olive skin for a few minutes, but then it went away. It was easy enough to spread. The residue felt a bit tacky on my face at first, but it dried down really smoothly. My main issue is that it did not at all sit well under makeup. I only use pressed powder foundation most days, with a light touch at that. This sunscreen clogged my pores and pilled a bunch underneath my foundation. And it KEPT pilling, like, throughout the day. I guess this is generally my experience with physical sunscreens, which is a shame, but it makes it totally unusable for my face. I might use it on my arms. This would be fantastic for someone who doesn't wear makeup and has small pores.

A skincare MUST HAVE!

I’ve used several sunscreens throughout the years, but this one is GREAT! I’ve been using it for over a year now, I’m on my 4th or 5th tube. The first time i ever used it, i was very skeptical! Because I’ll be honest, it does give a very slight white/bluish cast. BUT! That COMPLETELY vanishes within less than 5min! Afterwards your skin is glowing, but not oily. It somehow appears smoother and more even. And when you use it daily you definitely notice a difference in skin texture over time. It’s the best sunscreen I’ve ever used! Truly! You are all very welcome! K, bye! Lol
