BuzzFeed Shopping editor Natalie Brown says, “I have oily, acne-prone skin and use a prescription retinol to control things, which means I MUST use sunscreen on my face every day. My mom, who had been using this Supergoop stuff the whole time, got me a bottle of this cult-favorite for Christmas last year (moms do know best sometimes!!). I couldn’t be happier with it! A dime-size amount covers my entire face, because it’s translucent it leaves absolutely no white cast, and 10 minutes after putting it on, my face just feels like I applied a little bit of a nice moisturizer or makeup primer, not anything that’s grease-central, like sunscreen usually is. It does pill if I put it on too soon after my morning topical acne prescription, but as long as I give that script about five minutes to sink in, I have no issues. I’ve been impressed by the way my matte foundation glides over it, looks with it, and lasts with it.”
Promising review: “I was introduced to this sunscreen by a dermatologist when I asked her if she knew of a sunscreen I could put on my face and my forehead in particular that wouldn’t run when I sweat profusely. I ride bicycles, and in the summertime, I really sweat profusely. I’ve been out riding with this on my face and forehead in almost 90-degree temperatures, and it still didn’t run into my eyes. Of course, it’s a bonus when it’s fully transparent and doesn’t leave a white ghost face. It stays on throughout an over two-hour ride and works quite well for sun protection. As far as I’m concerned, I’ve found the answer for what I was looking for.” —vintageveloboy
