I haven't found a better primer/moisturizer.Great!
I use a primer and moisturizer with SPF daily, and the UV Expert Aqua Gel Defense is the best one I've ever tried. Application is easy and long-lasting, without streaking, caking, etc. I highly recommend it for regular skin care.

Liquid Chalk
It starts to peel and flake within a few hrs and I don't have dry skin. I have combo to oily and it peels between my eyebrows, my nose and below my bottom lip. It's not compatible with Lancome concealer, foundation. It peels up even bigger. I asked the salesperson for Bienfait Multi-vital and didn't...

Best product I've tried!
This was recommended to me by a store associate, I was looking for a SPF with moisturizer, so I purchased it and I absolutely love it. It leaves my skin feeling silky and my foundation application goes on smoothly. I've gotten great compliments indicating my makeup looks great when wearing this underneath. First time user and will keep this as my staple.
Dear God no
Every once in awhile a sunscreen will slightly burn my eyes. When I used this product for the first time, the burning of a thousand suns hit me and I had to remove my contacts and wash my face (not ideal when trying to get to work). My eyes burned most of the day and were sensitive to light. It took an hour before I could drive to work and even then they were still tearing up badly.
Good on its own, not with makeup
This product is good when worn on its own (maybe with a light layer of powder) and gives a nice glow to the skin. I tried to wear it under makeup with different primers, liquid products and powder products, and it didn't fair too well; Always seemed to pill whether I used my fingers to blend, brushes, and even beauty blenders. I used it under water based and also oil based makeup and it seemed to break apart my makeup soon after for both. However as a sunscreen/SPF I can say it didn't sting my sensitive skin too much.
The scent is horrible
I can handle some fragrance. But this lasted forever i smelt it for hours after applying. The product itself is fine.
Amazing!
I love that is doesnt leave white cast as others, give me a glowy skin that looks like a new skin, is lightweight, leave super soft feeling, i'll look more specials in this product because definitely I will keep it as my daily. I hadn't dull skin i was just making cheapest decisions.
