Oily and white cast
This sunscreen was not my cup of tea. It left a heavy white cast that wouldn't go away even after rubbing it in for a while, and even then, the more you try to rub it into your skin, the greasier the sunscreen go on your face. It was not possible to put on makeup with the sunscreen if you used it for the face. Using it for the body might work, but again, you'll have to live with the white cast that it leaves and it's noticeable. I believe the sunscreen is effective in blocking the sun but it feels awful on the skin, so I will not be using it except when I go to the beach and I don't care that I have a noticeable white cast on my body.
leaves whitecast
I like that this is a mineral sunscreen with both UVA and UVB protection but unfortunately, even after rubbing it in for awhile, there's a pretty strong whitecast.
It is good
It absorbed quite quickly ,no fragrance which is good. This mineral sunscreen is made with no chemical active
Pros
Non-comedogenic
Not Greasy too much
Applying easily on the skin
UVA/UVB Protection
The water-resistant formula protects longer
Cons:
It leaves a slight white residue.
It may irritate the eyes so when using this product keep it out of the eyes.
Not for POC
I really wanted to like it but it was not for me, it left me looking blueish-pink . It is definitely not for people of colour, the ingredients might be good but it does not have a proper wear on POC.
Super watery & tacky
The lid changes to a pink when it's in "harmful UV rays". I was inside my condo and I never get direct sunlight and I put the sunscreen next to the window and it changed to pink. So this is very cool as it's a smart indicator of when you should be applying sunscreen even when you don't think you need it.
The sunscreen is very watery, hence why it says to shake the tube before applying. It applies white and requires some rubbing in to get rid of all the white streaks. It feels quite greasy and leaves a purple tinge to the skin. You will leave greasy fingerprints on items you touch. There is only the slightest scent of sunscreen but nothing like normal ones.
It's got a good SPF so I'm sure it's adequate at protecting your skin against the damaging sun but I was not a fan of the application and the residue. I felt sticky and uncomfortable that I would get grease marks on anything my sunscreened body would touch.
Yikes - Visible White Cast
I was really hoping to love this one but although great protection with SPF 50, this was disappointing mainly because of the intense white cast it left on my face, regardless of how long I rubbed it in. The formula is quite thick and tacky too, not silky smooth that I would usually prefer, so it made my skin feel rather uncomfortable and I couldn't wait to wash it off. I am definitely on the naturally pale side, so this is not a good fit for me as an every-day sunscreen. I did try it on my exposed arms and although it still left quite a white cast, I felt it protected my skin well enough, while I was outdoors in the sunshine doing a bit of garden work.
