Science & Proof
High SPF sunscreen can be challenging for combination and oil skin types, creating an oily sheen on skin and clogging pores. Enhanced sebum production from heat exacerbates this effect by stretching pores and increasing surface oil and shine. Formulated with 100% physical filters, this broad spectrum tinted sunscreen minimizes oil and maintains its matte finish even in hot, humid conditions.
This sunscreen contains oil-absorbing powders to help minimize the appearance of sweat and oil for a long-lasting matte finish.

I recommend this to my patients who have an oily skin type or to those who prefer a less sticky, greasy sunscreen. I also recommend this to my patients with discoloration issues because the iron oxides in the tint protect against visible light.

Terrible bottle and they won't replace
I ordered this in Nov and the nozzle was a bit split and the product would come out the side. I don't use it a lot so I thought it would be ok but last week the whole nozzle fell off and now I have tin foil on it to protect. I called today to try to get some kind of replacement and they said no. I am a VIP client and have spent so much money on these products. Do not order this.

Nice Matte Finish
I bought this about a month ago and I am enjoying the lightness and the lovely matte finish. I do have to shake the tube before applying because the product because it separates after sitting.

It needs to be shaken prior to use or oil comes out first and can stain clothing if you aren't prepared. It also goes on a little thicker than I was expecting. Once I got use to the smell I like it. It also doesn't make me feel greasy.

Used for years
Love this sunscreen! It's lightweight, doesn't cause me to break out (I have acne prone skin and this is one of my concerns), keeps my face protected all day, and as a bonus, gives my super pale skin a little color! It even helps to cover up some imperfections !

The best sunscreen hands down!!!
This is the most amazing sunscreen ever and possibly the best skin care product on the market! I recommend it to all of my family and friends! If feels like silk on your skin. It is light-weight, non-greasy, does not worsen acne, and does not have any scent. I use it as my foundation too. One tube will last for 3 months so the price is very reasonable.

Love the Texture
First time buying the product. I have been using SkinCeuticals for years and always love what I get. I opted for this tinted SPF to wear at work (I work outside about 70% of the time). It gives me the right amount of coverage so my skin tone evens out. Bonus...the SPF is just enough coverage and it is so smooth and perfectly mattifying.

Grainy texture
I was excited to get a matte spf to use before I put my foundation on, but this product has a very grainy texture that doesn’t feel good being rubbed onto my skin. I’ve found that mixing it with a little bit of moisturizer makes it go on better without feeling like sandpaper against my skin. While I really like my other Skinceuticals products, I won’t be buying this specific item again.
