What the gurus are saying

Gurus praise this sunscreen as a standout affordable alternative to Super Goop Unseen Sunscreen, with a refined silicone gel texture that feels plush and dries matte without tackiness. The 80-minute water resistance and sensorial finish (velvety, primer-like) are consistent strengths. The main caveat is the silicone-forward formula, which some find irritating if they're sensitive to that feel; the scent is a traditional Sun Bum coconut vanilla but more subtle than the brand's other 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."
