Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Isohexadecane is added to enhance texture, emulsify, and to help cleanse. It is an isoparrafin. It is a component of petrolatum.
Due to its large size, Isohexadecane is not absorbed by the skin. Instead, it sits on top and acts as an emollient. Emollients help keep your skin soft and smooth by trapping moisture within.
Isohexadecane is often used in products designed to help oily skin. It is lightweight and non-greasy while helping to moisturize. When mixed with silicones, it gives a product a silky feel.

Really liked this product, except for one problem - it stings my eyes like crazy.
It applies really nicely and absorbs well into my skin, but after a few hours of wearing this sunscreen I start getting extreme eye stinging.
I've since moved to using Supergoop's Mineral Sheerscreen, so I think it is one of the chemical filters in this one that causes my eyes to sting.
If you don't get eye stinging from this product, it is a pretty great sunscreen! (but expensive)

Can’t tell I have sunscreen on
This is great! I’ve always been bad about wearing sunscreen daily because it leaves such a greasy shine and can feel so heavy. I’ve tried various moisturizers and makeup foundations with spf in them and every single one was greasy and heavy. This I can’t feel on my face at all and once it dries quickly you can’t even see it at all. No weight and no shine. Will continue to use forever! Haven’t found anything like it. Now I use sunscreen daily
Can't get over the sensation
I have mixed feeling about this one but ultimately it's a no go. I liked it applies matte and does not make my already oily skin look shiny. However when applying the correct amount of 1/4-1/2 tsp for SPF...
Can't get over the sensation
I have mixed feeling about this one but ultimately it's a no go. I liked it applies matte and does not make my already oily skin look shiny. However when applying the correct amount of 1/4-1/2 tsp for SPF coverage it's very slippery and does not absorb. I can feel it on my skin all day, just a film of sunscreen, which is technically what it's supposed to do but the sensation was too much. I have the same problem with Trader Joe's Daily Facial Sunscreen which is a dupe for this.
