I find this SPF works extremely well for my skin. I use retinol which has made my skin sensitivity, and I am also prone to acne and have very oily skin, but this is one of the few sunscreens that doesn’t make me more oily than normal and doesn’t feel heavy throughout the day. However, I do find that it leaves a fairly noticeable white cast, even after 20 minutes it is noticeable, this isn’t surprising as ALL non-nano products will do this. I actually mix equal parts of the tinted and non—tinted to make this work perfectly for me.
