Will this product leave a white cast on darker skin?

Acne increased with the product
This product gave me a lot of acne and pimples. With only 2 weeks I saw a huge difference in my facial skin, I have never had so many black heads and pimples using a product the way I did with this one. I am very disappointed.

Best Facial Sunscreen
I have been using this product for 3 years. I have tried to use other products, and end up not finishing the bottles and go right back to this one. Does not clog my pores, isn't heavy, and makes my skin feel fabulous.
Love this!
love the high spf protection for my fair dry skin provides long lasting moisture doesn't pill like most other spf products no offensive smell used Clinique for many years but this is by far better as far as pilling is concerned, so not going back
Great Product
A light cream serum that also has sunscreen - sinks in readily and my dry skin loves it. My only complaint is about 1/3 in, the lotion starts to thicken and gets worse as you use it up. It has been this way for a long time and it would be perfect if they could fix the dispenser.
My favorite
I have been using this product for over five years and absolutely love it.
Excellent product
It is easy to use, it leaves a glow on your skin that makes it look beautiful, sunscreen, compatible with makeup, it is perfect.
