What they flagged

  • Heavier than Korean sunscreens

What the gurus are saying

This sunscreen works beautifully as a primer on dry skin and earns real praise for being formulated without mineral filters, so it does not leave the white cast that plagues many sunscreens on deeper skin. One expert loves it for that reason alone; another finds it genuinely good but notes she personally gravitates toward lighter Korean sunscreens instead, so it may feel slightly heavier than some alternatives.

"If she's using a really powerful exfoliant and then using the moisturizer with SPF on top of it, that's just not going to be enough protection. Also, just given how sensitive her skin is and if she's struggling with breakouts right now, yeah, not a good mix. I know people love that sunscreen but it has a lot of fragrance and it has chemical UV filters, which I'm not a fan of. I am glad she's wearing sunscreen but yeah, got to swap out that toner."

"What's amazing is she made an SPF for a Black skin. I mean, it's not that hard, just don't put mineral in it. This is perfect on any skin because it's not a mineral SPF, so it doesn't leave that white cast you get with mineral formulas on darker skin tones."

"The one that I can use is the Fenty one that you recommended to me. Fenty is good, it is good, but it's still not a European SPF. I love me a Korean sunscreen because they're just lighter and they do a good job."
