Wonderful!!!
volta (516 reviews)

This stuff absorbs so fast and so well. My skin feels so smooth. It protects great too; I live in Phoenix and the hot sun doesn't burn my skin. It doesn't make my face oily or cause me to break out. It's great for sensitive skin too. — 10 months, 2 weeks ago

Great sunscreen
ladyboarder9669 (186 reviews)

I love this sunscreen. It doesn't feel goopy, greasy, and thick like sunscreen. It feels more like a thick moisturizer. It also works amazingly well. I put this on first thing in the morning on saturday and sunday and spent the whole day outside both days and didn't reapply sunscreen every two hours like your supposed too, and barely had a pink on the tip of my nose at the end of the day. The rest of my face wasn't pink at all. Very impressed with this sunscreen and I will continue to use it. — 11 months, 1 week ago

Great protection
ctunstall (39 reviews)

This is a bit pricey, sometimes I can find it at TJ Maxx but I still buy it because it is worth the price. It works great and has some of the best protection for a face sunscreen, and believe me I have tried everything. I am very very fair and have never had a sunburn when using this. This sunscreen is more like a cream and you really have to work at it to get it blended in but it is not greasy or oily. The thickness helps keep it on for a long time. I have sensitive skin so I would recommned this for anyone. — 2 months ago

TOTALLY WORKS
Strawbryblonde (15 reviews)

You want to block out sun? This goes on w/ serious protection. For me, must wash my face prior to application of any moisturizer. Pat dry, then apply small amt of product on. A little should go a long way. At first it may seem like its white going on, but work it in gently and it dries to natural matteish like finish. I'm oily, and breakout easy...can't stand goop on my face!! So I am one picky customer! This does not break you out period. Yes, your protected. Repeat purchases made. — 3 months ago

Great sunscreen
skinpro (15 reviews)

I only use sunsreens with a high % of Zinc-oxide because of its superior UVA coverage. This is one of the best I have found. No sickly white cast or too thick formula like most zinc sunsreens. The antioxidants are an added bonus. — 8 months ago

Great protection for my face =)
yaranas (9 reviews)

I have post-acne marks and I'm trying everything I can to prevent them from getting darker. This sun cream is really great for protecting my face. I haven't burned from using this, nor have I gotten allergic reactions (which is common for me with different sunscreens). It's waterproof, meaning that it will last longer than most other sunscreens. And surprisingly, I don't look really pale after applying it. It's a little bit on the pricey side, but I love it. There are only two downsides to it, in my opinion. First, it's difficult for me to apply my liquid foundation over it, even when I put primer on. The sunscreen mattifies your skin (which is great since i have an oily t-zone) but using a matte foundation with it makes it really difficult for the foundation to glide on your face. The other downside is that I have to use an oil cleanser to take it off. I don't think this is too bad, considering that I would rather have great protection than skip out on oil cleansing. — 2 years, 6 months ago

Heavy duty stuff that may be too heavy
stylishchic (64 reviews)

I recently tried a sample of this sunscreen cream, and I mostly approve. The consistency is a good and a bad thing. Good because it stays put and really is sweat and water resistant. Bad because it is thick and heavy, making application a bit taxing and uneven. In my opinion, for the price you pay, you could get another quality sunscreen for less and save yourself some money. — 2 years, 9 months ago

Great!
lefty84 (5 reviews)

This is the best stuff. I was afraid it would feel greasy since I have super oily skin but it feels really light. Great for those days when you're outside for a long period of time! — 3 years ago
