What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Applies smoothly with minimal white cast once set
- Wears well under makeup or foundation without pilling
- Contains added ingredients (enzymes, peptides, vitamin E) beyond basic sun protection
Reviewers push back
- Has a noticeable fragrance/scent that some reviewers find unpleasant or irritating, especially near eyes
- Not moisturizing on its own, requires a moisturizer underneath for dry skin
- Runny, drippy texture that requires shaking and careful layering
Reviewers agree this mineral sunscreen applies smoothly, wears well under makeup, and suits sensitive or acne-prone skin, but the fragrance and its non-moisturizing formula are recurring complaints.
Reviewers praise
- Smooth, air-whipped texture that feels lightweight and non-greasy
- Minimal to no white cast despite being a mineral formula
- Works as a makeup primer and blurs pores and imperfections
Reviewers push back
- SPF 40 rather than 50, which one reviewer felt was lower than ideal
- Texture and tint may not suit those wanting a fully invisible, non-tinted sunscreen
- Very dry skin types may need a moisturizer underneath
Reviewers describe a mineral tinted sunscreen with a smooth, matte, non-greasy finish that doubles as a primer and works well on sensitive, oily, or acne-prone skin.
