Love !!
I absolutely love the sunscreen, works very well for my mature skin. I use two pumps and work it good into my hands, and the whitish cast almost turns clear, it's an absolute must.

Thanks for recommendation
Joey recommended this product during a facial. She gave me a sample and I loved it, so ordered the product. Haven’t always used a sunscreen, but now am a believer.

Thick & difficult to apply
Didn't like the white cast and how difficult it was to apply because of the viscosity. Would not buy.

Amazing sunscreen
I've been using this for several months and it doesn't leave a white cast or make my skincare pill. I switched to a different sunscreen that pilled and ruined my makeup. I am repurchasing and will never switch again!

good sunscreen
I found this product very effective and cosmetically elegant upon application. However, I'm only giving 4 stars because after about an hour or two when it dries down it becomes very dry looking. Great tint color, though!

Love this sunscreen
I have tried many sunscreens. I really like the way this goes on without a white cast and is light on the skin. I would recommend this sunscreen.

Great Product
Bought this for my husband as I've been trying to get him to use sunscreen for yrs now. He likes this product b/c it is dry, doesn't make his skin shiny & doesn't leave a white cast. He did say it was a little difficult to rub in so I suggested he warm the product between his fingers before applying & I believe that made a difference

Great for sensitive skin
Chemical sunscreens give me hives so I've tried a lot of the mineral sunscreens, this one works for my sensitive skin! It is a little oiler / more hydrating than some others since mineral sunscreens tend to be drying by the end of the day. I tend to mix a few together to get the right skin tone. I will be using this more when I'm outside this summer.

SkinMedica Essential Defense Mineral Shield
Great option for post procedure. Non irritating, applies easily, no lasting white cast, and dries matte.

It’s okay
This sunscreen goes on well but then dries very dry. It is hard to apply any base over the top. If only using sunscreen it is fine.

Go for the Glow!
Love the texture of this SPF. Minimal white cast and blends well. Feels great on my dry dry skin and doesn’t pill. A++

Best protection from the sun!
Love this SPF cream and it doesn’t leave your skin greasy or with a white film. Goes on smooth and works great after serum but before makeup. Highly recommend.

Easiest to use
I really need to use sunscreen, but I hate all of them either burn my eyes or hard to apply. This one seems to work the best and I actually don’t mind using it at all.

Best!
I have been using this for a few years and it’s my all time favorite broad spectrum sunscreen. It doesn’t leave white look to face and my skin glows after applying it. It smooths well over my serums and moisturizer without pilling. Makeup goes on so nice and my skin looks great!

Amazing sunscreen!
This is the best sunscreen I have tried after many awful ones. It is completely mineral and has no chemical boosters. It dries down fully to a natural finish, not irritating or drying. It is easy to apply and never pills. The only thing is it leaves a slight white cast on my pale, reddish skin so I have to mix it with the tinted one. Small price to pay for such a great product!

Recommend
This is the best US-brand sunscreen I have tried so far. The formulation and consistency can compete with Japanese sunscreens. I have rosacea and I always use physical sunscreens as chemical/hybrid ones either irritate my skin or burn my eyes. Unlike many mineral sunscreens, this one leaves minimal white cast and has no bothering scent. I use this in the winter only as it would be "too moisturizing" for the hot & humid summer here.
