Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Very good for combination skin with black head problems
I use this product since two years. The assistant of my dermatologist recommended this and I am very happy to find the right product which cause any problems. When I use another spf, my skin tends to get oily and in a couple of hours my face will be very shiny. This isn’t the case when I use this. Furthermore no greasy or cakey under my Mineral make up powder.
Nevertheless, it is a bit too expensive (27€ in Germany) and hard to remove with a cleanser so that I have to double cleanse

Good choice of colors, but dried out my skin
First, the good: Unlike brands that offer only one "universal" tint that isn't actually a universal match, there a three shades, so you can get a good colour match for your skin. Also, it has a genuinely matte finish and won't make you look like a glazed donut all day.
Now, the bad: The cost of that matte finish is that it's drying, and it made my skin look even more dry than it actually was. My neck looked like an 80-year-old's. Re-applying throughout the day made the situation even worse, but switching to a spray SPF didn't make it any better. And re-applying with a sheer SPF made me look streaky.
In summary: Not a fan.

For $13, it has its uses...
It has its pros and cons. Its thick and the matte finish can sometimes appear chalky. It layers well under powder foundation. For $13, I think it's worth it for particular scenarios.
(1) I use it on a weekend after slugging all day and I fiinnnallyy decide to go outside.
(2) I wear it under my makeup when I am working from home and need to get on zoom calls. I don't use this to reapply throughout the day. I use sun sticks instead.
Essentially, I think this is a great sunscreen when the event of the day isn't too high stakes. It is a mineral sunscreen that gets the job done.
