What the gurus are saying
The watery formula delivers no white cast, which reviewers found surprising in a mineral sunscreen. The tint is strong enough to look orange on some skin, so anyone with those undertones may want to patch-test before committing. Views split on whether it's better than alternatives like Dermatology's Universal tint option; some repurchase while others pass.

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

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.
