This sunscreen has a very pleasant lightweight, velvety feel. Has a very pleasant, flowery almost vanilla-like scent too. It's not water-resistant so it gave me a bit of eye sting when applied around eyes. Unfortunately... it breaks me out:( I really wanted to like it. As I looked at the sunscreen ingredients and other ingredients in it, I realised it's not the greatest choice of ingredients for very sensitive, acne-prone skin. If you have normal skin, you might very well love it.
