What the gurus are saying

This mineral sunscreen earns praise for its smooth, pore-blurring texture and lack of white cast, a rare combination that appeals to those who find most mineral formulas chalky or visible. The trade-off is the heavy silicone content, which creates that slip and cushion effect some love but others avoid; it's worth patch-testing first if you're sensitive to silicones. Deeper skin tones may still notice some cast, and the antioxidants like green tea extract suit oily skin particularly well.

"If you love a mineral sunscreen and want one with no white cast, I'm back to MDSolarSciences. I used it years ago, just started picking it up again, and I've forgotten how much I love it. If you're looking for an amazing mineral sunscreen that doesn't leave a white cast, this is it."

"Another sunscreen duo that I love, the MDSolarSciences Mineral Crème SPF 50, this is a favorite for me personally. It's a water resistant sunscreen with a nice pore blurring effect, it's got a lot of slip to it, very silicone heavy, which a lot of people don't like, but if you like that smooth, slip, pore blurring cushion effect from your sunscreen you're going to like this a lot. It's an all mineral formula with no chemical filters, though it does leave a bit of a cast, especially if you have a deeper skin tone. It has antioxidants in it, including green tea extract, which may help combat oxidative stress and is also helpful for oily skin, plus vitamin E to help protect the formula. At Costco you can get a two pack for 26.99, versus the normal 32 dollars for just one 1.7 ounce tube."
