With the fast f/1.8 aperture and legendary Carl Zeiss optics, it delivers outstanding sharpness, beautiful bokeh, and excellent low-light performance.

Works well to protect face
Color: Classic
Works well to protect face from sun and is not too oily. However, it needs more of tint to it and is too white.

I have been looking for this cream all my life. and found it.
Color: Classic
Very convenient packaging (I do not need a dispenser) it can withstand a long time in the sun, is almost not washed off by sea water, the skin is soft even after a shower, the consumption is economical as it is applied with a fairly light layer. Worked out every dollar 👌🏽Love it!!

Doesn't work, got burnt
Color: Classic
This is very tinted, stains what it touches. I reapplied 3 times throughout a 3 hour span while at a beach in Florida and got burnt, particularly around swimsuit straps (despite being extra careful to get under the straps). It goes on pretty smoothly and eventually clear but would not recommend due to lack of sun protection.

Not as great as I hoped
Color: Classic, Color: Classic
Bought because of high praise from esthetician on social media. Overall, not worth the price. Pros- Did work as a sunscreen. Had no reaction or breakouts from it. Socially conscious brand/product. Cons- -Very thick and paste like. Hard to spread around dry areas. I would prefer a lighter formula. -Even though it is tinted (got the classic) and I am pale skinned this made me look washed out. Wore it in my face one day and people kept asking me if I was "feeling okay". - When I wore it on my body it would get tinted sunscreen on my clothes and was very difficult to get the color out. I wear sunscreen all year around in any weather and I would only recommend this if you are going to the beach/pool so you don't get stains on nicer clothes. -

Great texture, spreads easily, matte finish. Beautiful!
Color: Classic
Love this sunscreen! It glides over the skin, doesn't leave a white cast even on my brown skin, and it stays put. I love the texture. It's similar to paula's choice resist mineral sunscreen but a higher spf. I use it on my face too.
