Reviews For SkinCeuticals Physical Matte UV Defense Tinted Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50
Found to be Drying
I was pretty disappointed with this product since I am such a big fan of Skinceuticals antioxidant serums. For the high price, you would expect this sunscreen to have some moisturizing or anti-aging components to it. However going in I knew that this would simply be a mattifying sunscreen and I wanted to see how it worked. I found the sunscreen to not only be drying on my skin, but it was flaky and quite visible when I put it on. It felt like the sunscreen turned into powder as I began to rub it into my skin.

An amazing sunscreen
This product does what it was made for, and it feels good on the skin without leaving behind a greasy feel as the vast majority sunscreen products out there. It gives a healthy glow on my skin and a smooth look that oftentimes I skipped putting foundation when I was in a hurry. Will definitely repurchase it, and recommend it to others. The price is reasonable, and the ordering/ delivering process was without any glitches.

love to use when I''m outside for longer periods
Great coverage and like the matte finish. I am outside a lot and I like the high spf in this product.

Lightweight, but white streaks
I have medium light skin and this product does work great - only if you don't sweat or get wet. If any of the two happen, the product becomes very white and chalking. Unfortunately I had this happen at a wedding (fortunately not my own!) and my photos revealed streaks of white, even though this was under makeup.

Love this stuff!
Makes my skin feel so silky and is a great base to my makeup. The only thing that would make it better would be if it came in an airless pump. But even if that never happens, I am hooked on this product.

Feels like a weightless powder on my face!
I LOVE this sunscreen. It goes on so smooth and feels like a weightless powder once it's on your face! I don't need to wear foundation or powder when I use this sunscreen because it does the trick. It is very comfortable on my face and doesn't clog my pores. Since it goes on so light, it doesn't soak into your skin quite as much as a typical sunscreen, but it looks and feels beautiful.

Nice
I really like the velvety texture of this matte cream. It has a light tint to it so you can wear this without makeup.

Too drying. Not so good and the tinted thing can clog your pores

Best sunscreen ever
Love that its matte finish and oil absorbing! Mostly that the ingredients are natural and safe (zinc and titanium oxides) no risk of cancer that other sunscreens can cause. Tint evens out skin and most day no additional foundation is needed. This on product does it all!

Im in love
Ive never wanted to put a product on my skin as much as I do this one!!!! It is the best sunscreen on this planet. It has a nice tint that neutralizes the redness in my skin and actually keeps the oil away for quite some time.

disappointed
I was looking for a product which provided adequate SPF protection as well as help with my oily skin. I found that this product would work for about 30 minutes then my face would be oily again. Unfortunately this product was not helpful so I will keep searching for a product that can help maintain a matte finish.

Best Sunscreen
This is my second tube and I am still enjoying it. I love the matte finish. Not greasy at all at least for my skin. A little expensive for a small tube, but still think it is worth it.

Great coverage and protection
I am a 52 y o female living in New England. I wear antioxidant protection and sunscreen every day. I tried the eye version of this and immediately ordered this product. It goes on smooth, silky and blends right into skin. It provides great coverage but feels very light and fluffy. It doesnt mask my freckles but smooths out my skin, so if you are trying to erase spots, it may be too light for you. It gives a finished, smooth look. My blush goes on easily and lasts all day long. I can take a walk at lunch and not worry about getting burnt. Great, light coverage and sun protection for every day (you need something stronger for the beach). I LOVE this product, please do not discontinue....I always have 2 on hand, just in case!

Love the Matte finish!
I have oily skin and I used the non-matte version of this skinceuticals product but it just always left my skin shiny and greasy looking. I tried this as a sample and love its color, coverage, and spf 50 that I bought two tubes! My oily skin stays matte (even with a sunscreen component!) and the color blends nicely. Very happy with my purchase.

Love the coverage and protection
Im 51 and have found that less is more when it comes to foundation coverage and more is more when it comes to sun protection. Ive been using another dermatologist-recommended brand of tinted sun screen but found that the layering of that product on the other serums and moisturizers produced a greasy finish. This fabulous new product produces a much better foundation for the rest of my makeup. I ordered one for home and one for my always-packed makeup kit for travel.

Moisturizer, primer, sunscreen in one!
I love this product! While its tan in color when it comes out of the tube, it quickly blends into your skin creating a matte texture that has a very similar effect as a primer. In fact, I have stopped using my primer since beginning this product. Makeup stays on ALL day, and no oily complexion. This is a fantastic new product that has made a significant difference in the appearance of my makeup throughout the day.

Great Product!
This is a great product and works really well! The only downside? It is a super small tube so not much product for the cost.
