“Sadly a little too sticky and thick for me. I wore it on a hot day and my face was sweating a lot more than normal. I also experienced slightly stinging eyes.”

“Lightweight and soaked into my skin really well. I have yet to wear it under makeup to see how it performs as I predominately go make up free unless I am ‘outout’.
One thing I have noticed is that my face tends to sweat more. I don’t know if that is due to the ridiculous heat that we’re having at the moment (it’s September and no sign of Autumn yet), but a quick blast of my fan it a gentle dab with a tissue sorts that minor problem.
One thing I’m glad about is that I’m protecting my skin. I must admit I have always used moisturisers that contain SPF and not applied a separate SPF to my face unless I was abroad on holiday. Making changes for the better though and hoping that this will bring a noticeable change.”
“I was really keen to try this as it has no alcohol, fragrance or essential oils but I have found the formulation makes my skin feel oily and it does not dry down leaving it feeling sticky and make up on top smudges. I have combination skin and I think it would be better if you have dry to very dry skin. Will use it in the winter when my skin gets a bit dry.”

“I have loads of sunscreens and some of them feel to heavy. This does not, really lightweight and to know I’m using products specifically designed to work with my prescription tretanoin”
“It doesn't leave a white cast but the finish is oily. so it stays on top of the skin and oily. It doesn't sink in no matter how long you leave it on. I don't think it will be ok under makeup but I haven't tried it, I tried it with an ordinary white powder and I had to use a lot to soak up the oil. it's acceptable to use indoors but i will use it outdoors as i cant apply a proper powder on top and this defeats the whole idea of having sunscreen outside”
