Good physical sunscreen

This is my first mineral sunscreen. I used to use only chemical sunscreens as they don't leave as much of a white cast on my brown skin but I learned physical sunscreens are better for me. I am pretty satisfied with it. There was a little bit of a learning curve on how to use it. I do have to rub it in to get rid of the white cast but I think this is common for all physical sunscreens.

Effective, non-irritating sun protection

This is my go-to heavy duty sunscreen. I only apply it for full days outside when I know I will be in the sun. I have sensitive, dry-leaning skin that has a tendency to react to scents and heavier sunscreens. This did not irritate my skin at all and wore very well under my makeup - it actually feels more like a primer once it has been applied.

The only minor downside is that it does give me a bit of a weird white cast, which is impressive, as I am fairly fair complexioned. However, this is easily adjusted with bronzer and foundation.

Not impressed

This product does offer great sun protection. However, the texture is really like glue. It does not spread easily and is super thick. It also leaves a definite white cast (like most mineral sunscreens do anyway). Definitely going to try something different next time.

Dry and Protected

I have a very oily complexion, even more so when it is hot outside or I am being physically active. I am always looking for a sunscreen that will help me stay protected from the sun, but also will keep my skin dry and feeling matte. I love how Aveeno Positively Mineral Sensitive Skin Sunscreen dries quickly, doesn't make my skin look or feel greasy (even if I am sweating) and doesn't clog my pores or irritate my skin. It was gentle enough on my own skin that I was able to use it confidently on both of my children who have extremely sensitive skin and eczema. It won't quickly sweat off, or melt off into your eyes like other sunscreen will, and you don't need to use a ton like you need to with similar sunscreens. I absolutely recommend this sunscreen to anyone who has sensitive skin, anyone looking for a gentle, non-greasy sunscreen or anyone looking for an effective sunscreen.

My go-to facial sunscreen!

This stuff truly works for those with sensitive skin! It doesn't leave a white cast, doesn't feel thick, and most importantly I don't get hives! Huge bonus, it doesn't cause foundation to slip when applied over top, and is thin so it can easily be layered over top.

I love aveeno sunscreen but unfortunately this sensitive skin version just does not cut it. I love how it is oil free but it leaves an awful thick white residue on the skin. It does not soak in after time, and it is not possible to rub in. The regular aveeno is sensitive enough for my sensitive skin so I will stick with that. Try the regular aveeno suncscreen before this. Unless you're not going out in public, this really isn't suitable for any lifestyle.

We love this sunscreen! ... it is the only one at any department store or grocery store that has zinc as the first medicinal ingredient and as someone who thinks the more natural the better for my child I'm extremely happy with this sunscreen!

I usually opt for a physical sunscreen most days, and this formula is really great! Very thin and lightweight, while still keeping my skin protected. The lotion doesn't ball off, which I find happens in other sunscreens, and spreads very easily. My only complaint is that because it's so thin, things can get pretty messy.

This is not my favourite sunscreen at all. It has SPF50, and price is not really good. The worst of all, when you use that on your face, your face turns white and hard to erase that. I won't buy that again.
