What reviewers say

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

Reviewers praise
  • Broad-spectrum mineral protection with non-nano zinc oxide tested for UVA, UVB, and pro-pigmenting visible light wavelengths
  • Iron oxides in multiple colors (red, yellow, black) help prevent hyperpigmentation in medium to deep skin tones
  • Water-resistant formulation with added antioxidants and niacinamide
Reviewers push back
  • Original liquid formulation has a dewy finish that some find too glossy or moist
  • Shade range may not match all undertones perfectly—some tones skew peachy or orange
  • Takes significant effort to blend fully into darker skin without leaving residue
Dermatologists praise this mineral sunscreen for comprehensive UVA, UVB, and visible-light protection with tinted iron oxides, though the original formulation takes effort to blend and leaves a dewy cast.
— best for: People with medium to deep skin tones fighting hyperpigmentation who need mineral sunscreen that blocks visible light and allows midday reapplication.

Colorscience works beautifully on both young and aging skin because it doesn’t settle into fine lines or wrinkles. It’s so easy to blend out i use my finger tips and it gives the most flawless coverage it’s still looks very natural. As a licensed esthetician, i love recommending products that protect the skin barrier while also giving a wearable finish. I’ve been using it myself for about 2 years Bailey B · influenster.com

Skin protection from the sun has to be all year, not just in the summer! During the other times of year I want a light sunscreen that still gives me high protection. I get both with Neutrogena’s Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen with Heliopolis 360! It’s got 100 broad spectrum SPF with antioxidants. It blocks up to 99% of UVB rays.
