What the gurus are saying

Gurus praise this as a strong alternative to pricier gel sunscreens, with a silicone-based texture that dries matte and doubles as a primer base. The transparent formula feels silky and plush on skin. However, those sensitive to silicone feel may notice it, the formula leans silicone-heavy for its texture and structure. The traditional Sun Bum coconut scent is present but more subdued than the brand's usual products.

"Daily gel SPF 50, water resistant, 80 minutes. That's actually a pretty good price, don't you guys think? Water resistant."

"It's one of my all-time favorite sunscreens and also one of my favorite launches of this last year. It has that Super Goop Unseen Sunscreen vibe, similar family of texture and finish, but this just got the texture and the finish more finessed for a better price point. It has a silicone gel texture that's completely transparent, really does give that primer finish. If you have a sensorial issue where high silicone feel bothers you, this has that, but to me it has more structure to the formula to give it more of that gel vibe. It dries down like matte, perfect for priming. This one's 80 minute water and sweat resistant as well. It has that traditional vanilla coconuty Sun Bum smell, very traditional to their products, but I think much more subdued. I ranked it number one among Super Goop dupes because it gives me that sensorial feeling of being more plush, more velvety."
