What reviewers say

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

Mineral SPF 50 Face Sunscreen
no reviewer coverage yet
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.

Don't have a picture of it left it on the beach on accident 😅 The spray nosel on this thing is hard to press and it gets even harder as you apply. For the fact your hands get all oily. Yes this product is very oily. But it does have an amazing smell. It is all natural products to the point that the bottle isn't even aerosol. It's water resistant for up to 80 minutes so reapplying is a must. kymberly.h · influenster.com

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
