Reviews For SkinCeuticals Sheer Physical UV Defense Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50
Fantastic!
Fantastic mineral based sunscreen, is a little runny but I personally am okay with this for application. It leaves a slight white cast.

White cast
I like the way it feels and settles under makeup, however it leaves a white cast on me. I have ordered the tinted one to try instead.

Disapoears right unto skin
Love this sunblock. I've tried many ones this one is at the high end price wise but I think its worth it. It goes right into skin, no white cast and protects til next application. Bought it for a trip to South America in February. I wear sunblock all year long because I live in the deep south.

Lightweight
This formula is very thin and lightweight. The size is nice for traveling. If you like a thin layer then this is for you!

Very shiny/greasy appearance - Definitely not a matte finish
I'm definitely a fan of SkinCeuticals products! However, to me, this product is not as described as it creates a shiny/greasy appearance on my fair skin. On a positive note, the sunscreen itself is a bit liquid and goes on well. I was excited to buy this as a post-procedure sunscreen as I simply cannot tolerate the highly recommended and popular sunscreen my doctor recommended. Anyway, if I had not missed my return window due to my intensive procedure, I would've definitely returned it and purchased another sunscreen from LovelySkin.

My favorite
Love this one so much because it is not greasy, it is very lightweight with a minimal white cast considering that is a mineral sunscreen. It is one of my favorites so far… :)

SkinCeuticals Sunscreen
SkinCeuticals tinted sunscreen is light weight on my skin. So easy to apply and wear. A bottle lasts a long time.

An Excellent Sunscreen
I don't think twice about applying this sunscreen! It is lightweight and blends in quickly into my face. I have sensitive skin, and burn easily. I feel safe being in the sun for the short periods that I am. Highly recommend.

The best SPF for me!
I absolutely love the light milky texture of this SPF. It does not interfere with other layers of the products that I use daily.

Decent mineral sunscreen
Is very lightweight. Has a bit of a white cast. I don’t use daily, only when I’m spending prolonged time outside. My skin tolerates but I usually end up with a breakout after use.

Great product
I am 59 with very sensitive skin. Fragrances and various ingredients break me out. I have been using this sunscreen for over a year every day and have never had a breakout. It goes on smooth and does not leave a white cast. I use the sheer version, not the tinted. I have tried the tinted version and that one caused me some irritation, and I returned product for a full refund. Hope this helps someone.

Great little sunscreen
I use this sunscreen daily on my hands and neck or to spot treat before I go outside (I use a tinted sunscreen for my face). It’s light, doesn’t have a scent, and made by a company I trust with my skin. This is the perfect size for a small purse or even for your pocket.

Best neck and chest spf
My skin is very sensitive so I can only use mineral sunscreens but many mineral sunscreens are too thick and gloopy for my neck and chest. Especially in the summer, I hate the feeling of thick sunscreens. This spf is so sheer and silky to apply that I forget I'm wearing spf right after I apply it. I've worn it outside in the middle of the day in the summer and never gotten any sunburn or color so the spf is very protective. Finally I like that it is un-tinted because I don't want to deal with tinted sunscreens staining my clothing. Just buy it, you'll love it!

Pretty satisfied with this
This is a good all-mineral sunscreen and it is cosmetically better than the similar formula from LRP. It do have to be careful not to put on too much all at once or it will make my makeup a little chalky where I have larger pores near my nose. 2 light layers while still using 1/4 tsp works better. The cast isn't bad on me, but I have fair, cool olive skin. I use it over a couple treatment serums and a moisturizer, and I have no issues with makeup pilling or sliding off. It can be a little drying since zinc tends to do that to me, but its much better than other mineral options I have tried. I also love that I can buy a large bottle and it spreads nicely over my legs and arms without getting all goopy and leaving white smudges on my clothes.

Love the non-tinted version for my very pale skin
I see a lot of reviews complaining of the white cast it leaves on their skin. i'm so fair-skinned that it blends right in. the tinted version of this or any other sunscreen leaves me with an orange or brownish cast so i look like my face is dirty and needs to be washed--like i 've spent a day in the garden and a thin film of dirt has stuck to my face. so i have the opposite problem as most reviewers. i hope they never discontinue this non-tinted version because it is the only one that i've found that doesn't do that and also sinks in without leaving my face feeling greasy. i never break out and my skin stays lovely and wrinkle free. i guess in a way it *is* tinted but the tint of white matches my light skin.

Not for me
Not in love with this sunscreen unfortunately. I had high hopes since this is from a brand I otherwise love. It does leave a white cast on my tan Indian skin.

Lightweight feel, heavy weight protection
I use Sheer Physical sunscreen daily on my neck and shoulders and arms as I am outside in the sunshine every day. It absorbs quickly but provides powerful protection. I use Skinceuticals Physical Fusion with a slight tint for my face. I prefer to use Sheer Physical on my body parts so I do not leave a makeup like residue on my clothing.

This is a great sunscreen! I use it daily, often in the place of foundation. The color blends and matches perfectly. The consistently is really thin but the coverage is great. I used it all summer and it provided great sun protection.

Love this sunscreen
This is my favorite everyday sunscreen. It goes on easily and the light tint keeps you from having a white cast like many other mineral sunscreens leave.
