I gave up my foundation for this tinted SPF
They say to find and SPF that you love to wear everyday. How could I when all the drug store brands leave a white cast and your face greasier than a cheesy pizza? I finally found one of my favourite SPFs, I actually gave up wearing my foundation makeup as this tinted formula covers everything. I finished the bottle and the colour remained true until the end, it didn't turn orange or any funny colours. I wouldnt say it would be for all skin tones as it comes out a medium brown colour. But if it does match your skin tone then I highly recommend!
Leaves skin feeling greasy
Although this product works in prevent my face from being burnt. I can't say it's a great product. I was expecting better. It leaves my face feeling greasy and looking extremely shiny. If you get it in your eye by accident it will sting.
My Forehead Could Be Read Like Braille For the Blind!
Lightweight, fluid, non-greasy: great! Price was reasonable ($18.99 regular price at Shoppers Drug Mart; $12.99 when it's on sale), but ...
The multitude of BUMPS which developed on my forehead and temples within two days of applying the product: GROSS! Not red, inflamed zits or whiteheads, but a multitude/clusters of tiny, bumpy PIMPLES! (If one were blind, a person might have confused my forehead for Braille! My forehead would have read, "Don't buy this product again!")
I should have returned the product to the store, siting irritation/reaction, sending a message to L'Oréal (Ombrelle's parent company) that their product was a "fail", but I forgot and now have 3/4 of a bottle of sunscreen which is beyond its due date for effectiveness.
What a waste of money!
I like that it is fragrance free and formulated for the face. I like the high SPF (60). The only issue I have with it is that it leaves my face really shiny which I then have to cover up with lots of face powder.
This is a very liquid formula that goes on easily in a thin layer on the face and neck area. It protects very well even in a mid day sun (although in this case i usually reapply every 1/2h). It has not caused any breakouts for me ever.
It's non-perfumed, but the chemical/ingredient smell is a bit strong still, so have to get used to it.
It also stings quite a bit if it gets in the eye, i usually keep wet wipes at hand expecting this problem.
Le produit pénètre bien dans la peau et ne laisse pas de fini gras. Je suis très satisfaite de la protection solaire offerte, mais j'aurais encore plus apprécié si le produit était résistant à l'eau. Le format est très pratique.
Great sunscreen. Gentle on sensitive skin, huge SPF protection, absorb swell, not greasy and doesn't cause breakouts.
