Smooth consistency

I'm really loving this SPF! For a mineral sunblock I'm very surprised by how smoothly it applies. White cast if any is very subtle compared to my previous mineral SPF from Is clinical. It's a lot more hydrating from my previous SPF as well. My favorite aspect of this SPF is that I've not noticed any pilling!

highly recommend

I've tried dozens of mineral spfs and this is the closest I've found to the perfect one. Most are either too tinted or leave too much of a white cast but this one leaves my skin looking pearlescent and radiant, but not in an overstated way. I have dry skin in the winter & oily skin in the summer and I can wear this throughout the year without issues. It's not greasy in my opinion and absorbs really well. I don't wear makeup so I can't say how it sits with foundation or other products, but I apply this a few minutes after my moisturizer in the morning and have never had any issues with pilling.

great daily spf!

i've been using this for 2+ years and it is definitely my holy grail spf. i don't wear makeup of any sort, plus i am very pale and fair, so this just gives me that healthy, dewy glow i need & a "barely-there" subtle natural look. the texture is almost whipped and has a nice mattifying feel, really easy to apply & sets in quickly. my only complaint is i wish it was a bit higher in SPF!

Greasy sunscreen

I received this sunscreen sample from an order with DermStore. I feel lucky to give it a try before I purchase it. The texture is very greasy. And it's hard to blend it evenly on your face.

Glowy and light

So nice! Always afraid of SPF because they're either sticky, heavy, or make my skin itchy. I do have dry, sensitive, acne-prone skin which makes me so cautious. But this product, WOW. Lightweight and glowy -great under makeup.

Love this SPF

This is a great lightweight moisturizer with SPF protection! Seems white at first but soaks in after about 1 minute. Doesn't leave your skin tacky or sticky feeling like some SPFs. Also works well with my BB cream ! Great product at an affordable price.

My Favorite Product

This is my go-to moisturizer/sunscreen. The glow it provides looks natural, not like glitter.

Favorite Everyday SPF

I have acne prone skin. This does not make my skin oily. It blends nicely and does not leave a white spf residue. It does not flake off weird under makeup like some sunscreens do.

My morning trifecta

At 70 years of age, I am frequently complemented on how youthful my skin is. There is only one reason: sunscreen every single day! But not all sunscreens are created equal and not all play well with quality moisturizers or foundation. Enter this amazing product. It is a mineral sunscreen, so I know it is effective and safe.But it is also a very effective moisturizer with beneficial antioxidants. I happen to like the slightly pearlescent glow it imparts which blends seamlessly into foundation if I use it. So : sunscreen, moisturizer and primer all in one - win win win, trifecta!
