I’m not crazy about this sunscreen but I don't hate it either. For a brown skinned girl, it can give you an ashy look immediately after application but does blend in a little after a few hours. I love that it is water based which makes it perfect for my dehydrated acne prone skin.

My sensitive and acne-prone skin loves it. It leaves nearly no white cast. The texture is quite thick, but it feels light on skin. It also calms irritated skin. Blends well and quickly if you wait for other toners/ampoules/creams to absorb into the skin.
