Love this product, but it’s definitely not for everyone. Finish is very dewey, and there is a minor white cast (from the 3% zinc oxide) that may show on darker skin tones. Slight scent from the thyme extract (which may cause allergies for some). On the lighter side, but still has a residual feel — definitely not the feeling of “nothing.”
That said, I’ve appreciated more skincare benefits from Show more
Ok at first but always caused severe eye burning and tears after about an hour. Had to stop using.
