What the gurus are saying

This cream stick earns praise for blending seamlessly and staying put all day, with reviewers drawn to how much control you have over placement and the range of shade options available. The multi-use design reads as genuinely innovative to the gurus who've tried it, though so far only a small handful have weighed in, so there is not much consensus to speak to yet.

"It looks quite nice to have a multi-use thing. It looks new. It looks quite innovative."

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.

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.
