This is my all time favorite sunscreen! It has zinc which in my book is essential for great sun protection! It has a nice tint, goes on smooth and has a great feel to it. I use it as a primer and also works very well for light coverage.

Best sunscreen. Physical sunscreen (not chemical) without a white cast.

This sunscreen is absolutely amazing and doesn’t cause any breakouts on my sensitive skin. The tinted formula glides on smoothly and doesn’t leave a white cast, making it perfect for daily wear. The lightweight formula feels comfortable and doesn’t clog my pores. I would not give it a 5/5 only because It can feel a bit dry on a very dry skin and can flaunt dry skin patches if the skin is not very hydrated, so a good moisturizer is a must underneath the sunscreen.
Overall, it does a good job for anyone with a cranky sensitive skin. Highly recommended for anyone struggling to find the perfect sunscreen for their sensitive & breakout prone skin!
