Most Helpful Positive Review Replaced by foundatiothn Honestly, people won't know the difference between this and another product until they suffer from adult acne. I was using high-brand make-up products as a young 20s person and ended up getting adult acne and it's something that WON"T GO AWAY. I ended up cutting myself away from any coloured make-up, but had a hard time cutting myself away from foundation overall, as it helped cover my blotchy cheeks and the acne spots. I realized Avene products work best with my skin type, and discovered their tinted sunscreen last year, which I've been using below my regular foundation to protect my now-extremely sensitive skin from the foundation. However, I just recently discovered this compact version of their tinted sunscreen and it has a much thicker coverage than their regular sunscreen. I've decided to try it out since Avene products have been kind to my skin. It's been a few days and zero break outs!! I haven't used my foundation at all since I bought this product, because it has equal or almost better coverage than my regular foundation from MAC. Would 110% recommend the product to anyone with sensitive skin who are looking for coverage while being nice to their skin at the same time. Also, I am Asian but on the fairer side (it's the hardest skin colour to match anywhere because apparently cool-skin-tone asians don't exist), and the tone Beige is slightly too pale for my skin and the tone Honey is slight too dark. I am currently using the regular tinted sunscreen (which is slightly too dark for my skin) and using the Beige tinted compact for highlighting parts of my face to balance it out. It oworks overall but definitely would recommend going to the nearby drugstore first and trying out the colours on your skin before purchasing. Hope this helps, and Avene, THANK YOU for making products that work with me!!
Most Helpful Critical Review Great product, wrong color I love the texture of this product and I am always glad to use a mineral/physical sunscreen. However, the beige color is far to dark for my fair skin. I look like a ridiculous clown when I try to wear this product due to the color. I wish that it came in a color that works for fairer skin tones.

Trish B. from USA
I love the sheer natural color and the 50spf. I wish more colors were available such as a bronzer for a suntan look.
It’s a very good product 4
Andrea P. from USA
It’s a very good product and leaves your skin hydrated without feeling greasy.
Keeper for Daily Use 4
Susan G. from USA
I've been using this sunblock daily for a few years now. My only gripe is I wished it magically didn't rub off/color transfer with blowing my nose, or now on my mask. BUT, it makes my pale skin with cool undertones look dewy but not color-fake, evens out the redness in my cheeks, and truly provides sun protection. I feel pretty with it on, feel like my skin can still breathe, and for what it is I don't think the price is too high. I'd love to see it as a refill option so its more environmentally friendly. I had a check up with a new dermatologist this week, and she said my skin looks great for my age (43) with regard to sun damage, so thank you Avene!
I bought this for summer 5
Katye S. from USA
I bought this for summer as an SPF and light weight option to my daily 2 minute face. I’m officially hooked. I like the way it goes on and how it provides just enough coverage to give you that natural look. It has a silky smooth feel and look.
Great product 5
Angela L. from USA
This tinted sunscreen is so much more than just sun protection. It blends easy, goes on smooth and gives just enough coverage to even out my skin. It’s is lightweight enough to wear under foundation but it’s great in its own.

Wish I loved it 2
Mia B. from USA
I am trying to find a replacement for the tinted sunscreen which was THE BEST. This just wasn't the same at all. Very matte and heavy. I returned it. Please bring back the tinted sunscreen!!!
Excellent product 5

Transparent Review 5
Zhela A. from USA
I purchased this in Honey shade after reading the reviews of those who bought the same shade. Apparently, it blends well with my skintone despite how dark it looks, and plus it evens out my overall skintone. My face feels moisturised and protected sufficiently with it. Glad I followed my hunch!
Love the coverage - lightest shade a little dark 5
Michelle C. from USA
A great product! I love the coverage I get but a slightly lighter shade would work much better on my light skin. Avene, please consider a lighter shade.
Great color and coverage. 5
Velma J. from USA
Great color and coverage.
I’ve searched high and low 5
Diane I. from USA
I’ve searched high and low for a foundation that would actually blend with my skin color and give me a rich and radiant look that lasts all day. I have dry skin and this is such a treat. Creamy texture and you only need a little for complete coverage. It doesn’t Rest in my fine lines it smooths them out and my face looks fresh and dewy all day.
Doesn’t effect my dermatitis 5
Pam M. from USA
I have contact dermatitis on my face and this spf doesn’t make me break out. The lightest shade is a little dark.
My favorite sunscreen for years. 5

My favorite sunscreen for years.
I like how it looks 4
Guadalupe C. from USA
I like how it looks on my skin and that it does not feel heavy. It wears nicely in my opinion. I still get oily, but blotting sheets along with powder fix that. The only thing that didn’t work out was to the color match. The color honey is darker than it appears to be. I might just have to get the lighter shade and perhaps mix them when applying.

This product is amazing! I feel my skin so soft and radiant at the same time to protect my skin to the sun damage.
The only makeup I'll wear again 5
Jessie from USA
This compact is the best gentle cream makeup I have ever used. It's great all over for more full coverage or just as a concealer for under eyes and evening out the complexion. This and a good mascara is all you need!
Best coverage I have found 5
