What the gurus are saying

This tinted sunscreen delivers both protection and coverage, though the tackiness and need for powder to set it are real drawbacks. Robert Welsh praises the formula and shade range as thoughtfully suited to a tint, while No BS Beauty finds it works best layered over a chemical sunscreen rather than worn alone on very sunny days, and warns that the silicone content may pill over silicone-heavy skincare. The ceramides and iron oxides earn points for those with melasma, and there's no fragrance.

"It's very tacky and sticky, which I don't love, and I had to set it with powder, though even after that it still felt a bit tacky and it seemed to emphasize my pores a little [...] around my nose. On the plus side there's no fragrance, and [...] it has ceramides, vitamin E, lactobacillus rice ferment, and iron oxides, which can be good if you have melasma. It also has a lot of silicone, so I have a feeling it might cause pilling if you use it over a silicone-heavy moisturizer or serum."

"A skin tint sunscreen and moisturizer all in one, delivering hydration, tone correction, and SPF 30 protection in 15 natural shades. [...] I think I need this, I love their tinted sunscreen. [...] Their other sunscreen is SPF 50, [...] this one is SPF 30, it's not a BB cream with SPF, it's an SPF with a tint to it, so it's an effective sunscreen. I love these, I love their formula, I love their skincare in general, I think they are stunning."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Sunscreen filters

Sun protection is the best evidenced way to slow visible ageing, and the filters are what does the work. Mineral and chemical filters both protect when a product is applied thickly enough and often enough, which is where most people fall short rather than on the choice of filter.

Ceramides

Ceramides are part of the skin's own barrier, and moisturisers built around them have evidence for holding water in and settling the tightness and flaking that come with a damaged barrier.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
