Didn’t work for me
This made my skin dry and made my make up application pasty…if you have mature dry skin I would consider other options…will say a little went a long way for coverage.

Great Untinted Sunscreen
This is a great untinted sunscreen. It doesn't leave a white cast, however I am a fair/moderate skin tone, so I can't speak for darker skin tones. It is a nice smooth texture and feels lovely when applying. Does an excellent job protecting my skin from burning without causing any irritation or breakouts.

The BEST Sunscreen
A dear friend let me try this sunscreen and I absolutely love it. It goes on with ease, doesn’t leave a cast or any streaking, dries quickly…it’s a light sunscreen compared with others.

The best sunscreen on earth
I have been using this sunscreen for years now and it is the only one that does not break me out or cause some kind of reaction. I love that it is mineral only, it blends well and does not feel heavy. I basically use this every day over my serums and don’t even need a moisturizer. It’s just perfect.

Best I've tried so far
This is overall a good facial sunscreen. I would love if it were a bit more moisturizing, but I do have very dry skin and I feel like most 100% mineral sunscreens will be at least slightly drying (at least the ones I have tried!) Just needs a good moisturizer underneath if you are very dry like me. I have rosacea and very sensitive/reactive skin and this has not caused any problems so far after ~2 months of daily use, so that is a big win! Does not leave any white cast, but I am also naturally very pale so this isn't something I usually have an issue with. I have already repurchased once and plan to keep doing so.

Light and Easy!
I am always on the hunt for a good facial sunscreen. I REALLY like this. It's thin and easy to apply. Best of all - no sunscreen smell!

Blends well
This is a mineral sunscreen and starts out white but blends easily. Not greasy, great under makeup.

Good sunscreen
I like this a lot for my chest.. unfortunately I can’t use it on my face because it clogs my pores but I really like it for the sensitive skin on my chest

Perfect Sunscreen
This is the best sunscreen, ever! I have incredibly sensitive rosacea skin and this doesn't aggravate my skin. It's cosmetically elegant and nice to apply. I like that it's mineral protection, and not chemical. It would be great if they could increase the spf to 45, but I will keep buying this forever :)

Love it!
I am very sensitive to many products and I am happy to finally have sunscreen that doesn’t make my eyes itch and water. It goes on smoothly and doesn’t irritate or make my eyes burn. My foundation goes on great after using it. This is my new addition to my makeup routine!

SkinMedica spf 35
I like that this is almost invisible, however am diminishing the stars due to the migration factor I've discovered with this one. In addition, it is only an spf 35 as opposed to a higher rating. After all, I think the higher ratings should be preferable sun protection?

NEVER go without sunscreen!!!
My dermatologist would have my hide if I didn't use sunscreen everyday - especially here in FL.

Soothing Post-procedure Protection
This is my go-to protection following Fraxel treatments or when skin is irritable. It's a handy pump container that dispenses a nice consistency cream, not too shiny or too dry.

One of my favorite sunscreens
I mix this untinted sunscreen with the tinted version to get a better color match. I do occasionally wear this on its own and it leaves a slight white cast. I love the two together! They do not irritate my skin or eyes and blend nicely into my skin.

I really liked this product as it works perfectly on my skin. It helps to reduce redness and keeps my skin safe from the sunlight. It also does not make my skin oily. Very amazed by how it does what it says on the description, will order again.

Great broad spectrum sunscreen = amazing skin!
I've tried several sunscreens from drug store brands and expensive brands. I found this to be the best as it truly keeps my skin protected from the sun. Anytime I've spent time outside wearing this my skin never looks sun blotchy like it got sun. My skin tone looks the same as it did as if I just put on my serums. It glows. No white film left on the face. Make up goes on smoothly. Great for sensitive skin too. No breakouts. My dermatologist recommended this after I broke out from other brands. Love it! Also when I need to put more on later in the day if I'm outside a lot, it looks great over make up. Like really great. You can still see your makeup but it glows.
