I've been searching for the water resistant sunscreen for a while and most of the sun screens, whether it's physical or not, water resistant or not, from high end to drugstore, somehow make me oil after a few hours or simply do not stay on my face because I always sweat so much in summer. ...You really can't beat this price.

love this sunscreen but it separates in heat...I would like really like a water proof version for water sports as this washed away when at the beach and snorkeling but kept when sweating. ...The other two hugeee downsides are: Not waterproof!

i liked the product, but it really wasn't worth the high price of 64 dollars. i didn't experience pilling like a lot of users of this product did, but it did leave my face feeling oily after a short period of time. also, I don't like that the pump only dispenses a small amount of product when using. i did like that the formula includes vitamin c and niacinamide, but I didn't like how (like most high-end sunscreens are on the market) isn't waterproof. lastly, I did enjoy that the tint actually had somewhat of an skin tone-evening property to it and the coverage is pretty decent for just a tinted sunscreen. ...This product worked well as a facial sunscreen. I burn easily, but hate putting non-facial sunscreens on my face.
What it is: A stabilized 10% Vitamin C serum with mineral SPF 40 for visibly brighter skin—available in three translucent tones to neutralize white cast without adding coverage.
