Let me preface by saying this review is unincentivized. I am on my eighth bottle, and do not ever intend on stopping. I found about the Serum Skin Tint a few years ago, and was absolutely blown away by the effects. At that time, I'd tried and failed to find a mineral sunscreen that was non-comedogenic, nourishing, fragrance-free, and didn't make me look as if I rolled about in dry clay—virtually a Rubi · iliabeauty.com

I have tried this sunscreen around 5 months and I’m really like it! Not only does it provide excellent sun protection, but the subtle pink tint adds a light coverage, almost like a sheer foundation. It’s super lightweight, non-greasy, and doesn’t leave a white cast. Subhashini S · influenster.com
