I don't use this sunscreen very often but when I do I really like wearing it. The texture is very special since it's more of a serum than a conventional cream. After applying it does change its texture though. It kind of transforms, while working it into your skin, from a liquid/gel-like texture to a more creamy texture. It also has a super glowy, dewy finish which I personally love. That's why I Show more

Brightens skin but can cause irritation
Overall it did brighten my skin and make my base glowy but it caused irritation around my eye area. I don't know if it's cause of other skincare products I combined with it but so far probably wouldn't reccomend for sensitive skin. Product also has fragrance

Too glowy for my taste. I have and oily t-zone and this makes me look greasy in those areas. The formula feels fine, but it does give me closed comedones.
