Great Moisturiser

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I am in love with this moisturiser/SPF I love this as it has a slight glow so doesn’t leave your face with the typical suncream white cast on your skin.

It’s grey

2 stars out of a maximum of 5

Great that this moisturiser has an SPF but it made my skin a white greyish colour, made me look sickly instead of glowy, smell isn’t great either

Nice glow

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have enjoyed using this cream - it's moisturising and gives you a lovely glow. However, I will say that it takes a bit of rubbing in to get rid of the white cast on my medium skin, so I don't think it would be suitable for darker skin tones.

Horrible

1 stars out of a maximum of 5

Don’t bother if you have dark skin, leaves a horrible white/purple cast - the texture is also not great and doesn’t absorb well AT ALL

Great moisturiser.

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This is moisturising and lightweight for a mineral SPF. It has a glowy finish, doesn't leave white cast and doesn't sting the eyes.

Okay, but not worth it

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have a Paula's Choice body moisturizer that I love, so I hoped this would be equally as great. Unfortunately I found that although the product is quite thick, it doesn't rub in well, and then it leaves a white cast. Not my favorite product for this price.

Expensive for what it is

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

This is okay. It’s very pricey for what it is, I don’t feel like it moisturises my skin and leaves residue as well. It’s an okay moisturiser but not amazing

It's more of a sunscreen than face cream

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

You can definitely tell from the texture that it's first and foremost a sunscreen. It also has a super white cast so you don't want to use more than a pea size for your face. It also leaves a weird texture for make up on top. If I was just at the beach with mascara and nothing else I would use it but definitely not a face cream I want to use everyday.
