What the gurus are saying

This mineral sunscreen caused noticeable pilling and stinging when tested. Reviewers suspect booster ingredients similar to octocrylene might be to blame (worth knowing if that ingredient usually bothers you). Poor ratings from other retail sites aligned with their concerns. The main hurdle: the formula didn't apply smoothly, which made the whole experience tedious and led them to skip it.

"This is the Good Molecules Moisturizing Rich Sunscreen SPF 30, with 11.2% zinc oxide. Applying it did not go well, it pilled badly and my skin actually started stinging, and I'm not sure if that's from the booster ingredients, which are similar to octocrylene, an ingredient my skin typically doesn't do well with. It only has a three star rating on the Ulta website too. This sunscreen is definitely not for me, and this is why I don't love mineral sunscreens in general, they just take so long to apply."

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.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.

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.
