    Horrible Reaction

    I had a terrible reaction from this product and I am not overly sensitive, so something in this did not react well with me :(

    I was so excited to try this and now my face is burning, red, and has little white bumps all over it and this was only after 2 days of use.

    Protects well and feels super light

    I really liked this mineral sunscreen. From the first use it felt different from other sunscreens I’ve tried. The texture is very light, almost like a water‑burst serum. It sinks into the skin fast without leaving any white cast or greasy feeling. I noticed right away that my skin looked smoother, and it didn’t make me oily throughout the day. The 8‑hour oil control claim is real in my experience, my skin stayed matte but still hydrated, which is hard to find in a mineral sunscreen.

    What I like a lot is that even though it’s SPF 50, it doesn’t feel heavy or sticky. It layers well under makeup, and on no‑makeup days, it gives my skin a clean, healthy look. I also appreciate that it’s gentle and is great for sensitive skin, and also has skincare benefits like hydration that lasts up to 24 hours.

    Perfection

    I am a "mature" redhead with plenty of sun damage concerns having grown up on the beaches of Laguna Beach, CA. I discovered this product on a whim( I tend to stick to my set products) and boy am I glad, it is so easy to apply and lightweight, non-caking/clumping. I have it on re-order.

    Thank you!!

    Disappointed

    I shook the container thoroughly and the color was good and blended well, but the sunscreen felt dry on my face, and looked somewhat shiny.

Mineral SPF That Works Like Skincare

Most mineral sunscreens protect—Sun Serum does more. Seven molecular weights of Hyaluronic Acid draw hydration into skin for 24-hour moisture, while Barrier-Building Sugars help reinforce the skin barrier throughout the day.

Non-comedogenic and vegan. It preps skin beautifully, layering without pilling under makeup. Shop the full skincare lineup or learn more about our clean ingredient standards.
