I have no issues with this sunscreen! I don't find it drying or irritating. I see other people saying it makes there skin matte but I haven't noticed that on me, maybe a slightly satin finish (probably because I hydrate my skin heavily underneath). I have brown skin and it doesn't give me a white cast, it does give me a white line on my eyelids but after Show more
