Feels SO comfortable on the skin, I want to keep using it. I also love that it's FA safe. But it pills after I blend out concealer with a sponge and I wonder how much of it is still on my face after that. It's supposed to be good for sensitive skin and while it's actually calming for my skin overall after I put it on, it also irritates the skin around my eyes - at the end of the day, there's always tiny little red bumps and I need to apply either LRP Cicaplast or Uriage Bariederm-Cica on that area before bed so that they go away by the next morning. I'm tired of doing this every day. I'm changing it to Bea Skincare sunscreen as soon as possible (had my eye on it for some time because the INCI seems so clean) and giving this to my less sensitive boyfriend.
EDIT: tried Bea sunscreen and didn't work out :/

I actually really enjoy the consistency. It glides really nicely but oh my lord this thing PILLS like no other. It doesn’t matter if I rub, gently pat it in, or wait however amount of time after my moisturizer; it will pill making it especially impossible to wear under makeup.

Best Sunscreen I've Used So Far
I've been firmly in the "I'm not spending that much on sunscreen" camp, but I had to face the music that getting cheaper sunscreens that didn't feel or look very good was only making me more likely to skip it altogether. It's very shiny but it is the best combination of feeling good, looking good, and working well that I've every experienced in a sunscreen. It hasn't caused any irritation issues for me either. Maybe I'll find a cheaper dupe near me one day, but til then I think it's a worthy investment.
