Owners love the impossibly light, fast-absorbing texture and non-greasy finish that works beautifully under makeup, though the strong floral fragrance divides those sensitive to scent.

What owners single out
Buyers' weakest aspect—fragrance—aligns with critic block 5's note that it "feels good to wear," though the reviews reveal the scent is actually a divisive point some find too strong.
In their words
“Farmer Sun Project sun cream feels really light on the skin and doesn’t leave that greasy or sticky feeling most sunscreens do which is really nice especially on a warm day when your skin already produces so much oil. It absorbs quickly, sits nicely under makeup, and didn’t irritate my skin at all. The only small downside is that the scent is a little strong at first, but it fades after a while.”

“Happy #nationalsunscreenday! I thought it was a good time to review the sunscreen I am currently using. I really like this sun cream from Thank You Farmer. It does have a light floral/fruity scent, so if you try to avoid fragrance in skin care products then there is your warning. The fragrance doesn't bother me though.”
