I’ve tried so many different sunscreens!! Cotz, Australian gold, eltaMD, Tula, La roche posay almost all of them. Hero is the only sunscreen that has 100% never irritated my skin!! It’s lightweight, so moisturizing but not greasy and has a Rox · Target

100% the best daily mineral sunscreen out there. Very hydrating for my dry skin, gives a dewy look, no pilling whatsoever, does not cause breakouts. There is some minimal white cast, but the skin benefits outweigh this. Used to use Aveda but this one is more hydrating. Tried all the Goop mineral formulas but those all pill, and leave my skin dry to the point where it feels tight. And they leave mo Milly · ulta.com
