What a blessing!
I did a lot of research before buying this on sale. The last facial sunscreen I tried burned my face. I still don't know what did it, as the individual ingrediants were all in other products I use. Anyways, I tried this. I'm not outside much, but wanted to anticipate the summer heat/humidity. I need...

not the best
i'm someone with very dry skin due to tretinoin, and i have super duper acne prone skin. i also have hyperpigmentation and slight redness, as well as textured skin. while this sunscreen didn't break me out, the formula is definitely not breathable imo. it pills up very easily if you have hair on you...

Do not recommend
This is so thick that its going to cause more wrinkles from rubbing it in than itll prevent with the SPF. White cast is pretty rough unless you sit there and work it. It doesnt make me more oily, which is the only plus.
My fav
This sunscreen is the only one i have found that doesnt break me out terribly!!
great sunscreen for oily acne-prone skin
i've used this sunscreen for years. the green tint slightly neutralizes any redness and the product itself helps control oil production. when i don't use it i'm a lot shinier! the only thing i wish was different was if the tube was actually filled up all the way instead of only about 2/3. otherwise this product has worked really well for me and helped improve my acne
Didn't live up to its claims
I was unimpressed with this product, especially at its price point. The green tint did nothing to color correct or reduce redness nor did the formulation dry to a matte finish. Instead, it left my face looking shiny. The only reason I didn't give it one star is because it did its job as a sunscreen.
Great for Acne
I'm 52 but still deal with acne. This sunscreen is perfect for me - it doesn't cause me to breakout and it wears beautifully under my full face of makeup. I do wish it was a higher spf, but the most important thing to me is that it doesn't cause me to breakout, so I'm willing to accept the lower spf!
