What reviewers say

Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?

Reviewers praise
  • Blends into skin with minimal white cast despite being a mineral formula, especially on fair to medium skin tones
  • Applies smoothly with a silky texture that spreads easily compared to typical mineral sunscreens
  • Works well as a makeup primer with a soft matte finish that helps foundation adhere
Reviewers push back
  • SPF 30 rating is too low for prolonged outdoor exposure or reliable daily protection
  • Not water resistant, which limits effectiveness in humid conditions or when sweating
  • Small bottle size runs out quickly with proper application amounts
Reviewers agree this mineral sunscreen applies smoothly and blends well with minimal white cast, but the SPF 30 rating feels inadequate for extended outdoor use and the small bottle empties quickly.
— best for: Best for people with normal to oily skin seeking a lightweight mineral sunscreen for routine indoor days with incidental sun exposure who want something that doubles as a primer.

I love this product. It feels lovely on and evens out my skin tone perfectly. It looks like my skin, only better and I've had comments on how well I look when wearing it. The only issue was that the light was too pale for me and the medium too dark. I would recommend purchasing a foundation corrector, you can buy them in light or dark shades (I use Elf Primed & Ready Colour Fix). This way you only australiangold.co.uk

I cannot sing the praises of this product enough. Silky, completely non-greasy (rinses clean with water), matte, skin-loving ingredients, lovely sheer coverage that stays on the skin and looks natural...why hasn't this gone viral? I'd take this over Supergoop in a heartbeat any day. I've been using this for almost a decade (and have very youthful skin to support its efficacy) and every single time GrrAce · paulaschoice.com
