This product is truly incredible. I recently found out I had melanoma and I have to wear SPF every day. I am 22 and I have fairly clear skin with hints of oiliness in my T zone. I wanted to find a good moisturizer that had an appropriate amount of SPF that didn't have a thick consistency or white-cast (both of which I have always experienced no matter what SPF I tried for my face). I was also concerned about the oiliness of my face. Even to the price is a little bit high, I really think that this product is so worth the cost. This product is plentiful and will definitely last me a few months. I would also say it feels more like a light moisturizer rather than putting on sunblock so this was a complete win for me. My skin feels hydrated rather than heavy and overly oily. I will definitely re-purchase this product when I run out.
This is a great product for moisture and UV protection, but like half an hour after putting it on, it will start to pull and like clump off your skin. Very disappointing when you look like your skin is falling off halfway through the day

My skin is very sensitive. Any sun screen products make it break out. This moisturizer / sun screen gives me protection without any breakouts

The price is outrageous! Got the small size to try, and couldn't believe how quickly it was gone. The packaging on the smaller size is also frustrating - there's definitely some left in there, but no way to get to it. I use this for my hands in the car, and love that it doesn't leave a greasy, heavy residue. But not sure I can abide by the price.

Splitting my time between Colorado and Texas, I don't leave the house without sunscreen, and I've long been a fan of hyaluronic acid. Something must be working, because people generally act surprised when I tell them I'm 72. I find this product is easily applied with no residue--I suspect those who do have a problem with it are using to much. I'm not enamored with the packaging. I can appreciate having the full size bottle stand on its head, but the tapered cap has too narrow a footprint, and it's top-heavy, so I knock it over all the time--annoying in a product I use daily. And I still have to disassemble it to get the last few bucks worth out. The travel size is worse. The first time I traveled with it the hard plastic parts, the cap and ring, shattered. I tried gluing and taping it together, but it was pointless, and I've had to transfer the contents to a different container. In the future I'll fill own travel container from the fifty ounce bottle. I appreciate the straightforward, informative visual design of the packaging, but the physical design could use some work.

I have dark brown skin and it is very hard to find a moisturizer with sunscreen that doesn't make my skin look dull. I have tried moisturizers and then topped it off with sunscreen separately but usually the sunscreen is thick and white and looks horrible on my skin. This the first moisturizer with SPF that gives my skins a dewy glow. I was skeptical about spending so much on one product, but it was worth it. I am definitely recommending it to my other melanated sistas.

No matter how careful i am to not get near my eyes, it still stings. And that's not with being outside and sweating or swimming.

This is my second time buying this product bcs i love how the skin felt after applying not sticky etc, but i wasnt sure until my second purchase that this product is awful everytime i apply it ,,few hours later i get itchy eyes and blury vision, at first i thought was the liner but i used not make up for few days to see and that is when for sure i knew it was this product, i stop buying it, not even for free i will put this on my face again, i went back to Elta MD

I really want to leave an amzaing review but stings around eye area. No matter what I do my eyes are irritated. I like thats spf 45, no white cast, lightweight, & super hydrating. Does somewhat piles if too sweaty.

I apply this moisturizer without the sunscreen at night and love it, so was happy to see the same greatness with sunscreen for use during the day. It ran into my eyes and burned like crazy. Same thing happened to my husband, so I'm definitely returning it. Also, my bottle came without a straw, so the pump doesn't work.

The sunscreen product is great. The packaging is awful. The pump broke the second time I used it and it is unfixable. I tried to empty the product into another bottle and couldn't even get it to come out of the tiny hole at the top of the container. I have asked for a replacement. (I tossed out the bottle)

It stings the eyes! I use another sun screen (a lesser expensive canmake uv mermaid) when I use this one. I dot the other sunscreen under my eye area because the ptr one stings soooo much. But I love the hydration this one gives me ! It even hydrates my lips so well. This one also doesn't wear well under make up. It always flakes (?) / pills up even when I don't wear foundation over. I can look past all the cons and still love this product but maybe you're better off getting a different sunscreen that doesn't sting your eyes or pills up :/

I love how hydrating. i have roscea acnea so my skin is very sensitive and cannot handle a lot of products however my skin is compatible with this. however when worn under makeup it decreses its life span. it also slightly stings my eyes.

I use this everyday under my makeup and love it . Actually gives my skin a nice glow. But I was very disappointed when I opened it . It was broken . I honestly should of returned it but didn't want to wait for another . I wish their was a option to upload a picture:/

I cried this off every time I used it until I threw it away. I really wanted to like it because it went on nice without white-out

careful if you are active- I go hiking and sweat a lot and this has gotten in my eyes so I am just careful not to use it too close now, but it has seriously burned before. Otherwise I love it!!!
Christine from Fl
I'm OBSESSED with this. It gives the perfect glow, very moisturizing. Blends in so smooth.

I loved the Max sheer all day moisture defense lotion, with spf 30. I loved it so much. It was light and fluffy and you could just use it under your make up but know that it was protecting you from the sun. That was discontinued so I bought this hoping it would be close. This is perfectly fine is a real sunscreen for your face, but it's not a moisturizer. I wish it would come back!

I bought the travel size and loved the feeling after I applied. Unfortunately I accidentally left the bottle in the car one afternoon and it changed the formula. I purchased the full size because it is a better value per ounce. I run oily

MY face can tell when its missing this product. This is the ONLY moisturizer that DOESNT mess with my primer or makeup. LOVE IT!! Miss the old bottle
Amna Shaukat from New york
Absolutely love it. Feels like silk. Has been using it for past 2 years now.
Katherine NYC from Greenville
This is great. Moisturizing my skin and also my makeup goes on very smoothly on top of it. Had to find a new daily facial sunscreen because La Roche/anthelios discontinued mine. So happy to have found this facial sunscreen that moisturizing and goes on smoothly under makeup without causing breakouts!!! Excellent product!

I find myself going back to this about once a month thinking "Am I misremembering my experience with this product?". I apply it and remember "Oh yeah I love this texture! Why did I stop using this...?" as I inspect the packaging in my hand. Some time later I'll yawn and my eyes will tear up a bit; the sunscreen makes it's way into the inner corners of my eyes. It doesn't burn, necessarily, but having teraful stingy eyes isn't one of my favorite pastimes. Especially when that teary-eyed-ness is made worse by cooling temperatures. I find myself having to rub my eyes a ton and by the end of the day I've rubbed my eyelids raw. It then goes to the back of the shelf. Rinse and repeat. I should just use this on my body.

This is the best oil free moisturizer I've ever used.
Martha from Virginia
This felt really good on my face. It was very moisturizing on my face, but after a couple of hours my face began to itch badly and I had to wash it off. I do have to be careful about what I use due to allergies, so it probably would be very good for someone else.
