Mineral SPF 30 Tinted Face Sunscreen - Matte Primer - Broad Spectrum Moisturizing Sunscreen with Vitamin E - Hawaii 104 Act Compliant (Without Octinoxate & Oxybenzone) - Travel Size 1.7 oz

I’m a big hyram fan and after I found out dear clairs and other Korean chemical sunscreen might not be as effective as claimed, I bought this product off of his recommendation. I was a little nervous about a few things. For one I have the worlds Oiliest skin. I felt like dear klairs (my old sunscreen) did leave a bit of shine but it had controlled my oil better than any other sunscreen I tried... until now. This is the closest my skin has ever looked to “normal” as far as oiliness goes so props to that! I also was hesitant on this product because of the tint but also didn’t want a white cast. I would say I’m light to medium with an olive undertone and I think it matches my skin really well! It almost looks like I have makeup on bc my skin tone much more even , but it doesn’t cover breakouts. I happened to have a few pimples (already had them ,not caused by the sunscreen) so you can see that the sunscreen doesn’t cover them completely but blurs/evens out the clear part of my skin. There is a slight white cast but I think the tint offsets it. . I couldn’t speak for other skin tones but I think if you’re light to medium/olive it matches really really well. Finally I love the texture, it’s almost velvety and doesn’t pull on the skin which I hate in a face sunscreen. Not too thick not too watery, and just feels nice to apply. So I don’t really have anything bad to say about this product, but I’ve only had it two days so I’ll have to see if it causes any breakouts ect. But so far I would highly recommend! Update: I have been using this for well over a year now, and I can never go back to anything else! It doesn't cause breakouts even when I've slept with it on by accident. I use it instead of a primer under my foundation, and it works amazing. I literally have no complaints; I have not gotten a sunburn since I started using this. I just reapply every few hours when I'm at the beach/pool. I love reapplying because it controls my oil and gives that blurred bb cream effect, I'm also able to put it under my eyes/on my eyelids without burning my eyes. I was never someone who got compliments on my skin, but that changed when I started using this along with the rest of my skincare routine (Shoutout Hyram!) I'm so glad I found this product! 2024 Update! Still loving and using this sunscreen! I decided to try a couple of different brands earlier this year just because I hadn't ever branched out after finding this product, but this remains the best-tinted sunscreen for oil control and pore blurring I've ever tried!

After first purchasing a year ago, this has become my daily go-to facial sunscreen while others just sit taking up space in my medicine cabinet. I have sensitive skin and severe reactions to chemical sunscreen and have been searching for the perfect mineral sunscreen for several years after starting tretinoin made my reaction to chemical sunscreen intolerable. I only recently figured out I am also highly sensitive to chemical boosters found in a lot of mineral sunscreens. Especially Butyloctyl salicylate. That one is a no-go for me and until I learned about chemical boosters found in a lot of "100 % mineral" sunscreens, could not figure out why some of my sunscreens made my face flush red and feel like it was on fire when I was in the sun. Lab Muffin is my hero. My skin is dry, mature, and sensitive with some lines/wrinkes, large pores, and rosacea. At first I thought this Sun Bum tinted mineral would be too drying as it has a very light texture vs being creamy. But it is not and the texture makes for a light but effective formula. PROS: - Mineral formula with no chemical boosters. - Does not settle in pores and wrinkles. After applying it settles slightly in lines, but a quick blend with a blending brush and it is good for the day. - Blends easily into hairline and brows. - Does not sting my eyes when I sweat and seems relatively sweat proof. -Does not transfer tint to clothes once it dries down. Even when I wipe away sweat.... nothing seems to come off. It is the only tinted mineral I have tried with little to no tint transfer. - Blends easily with a very soft silky texture that allows you to blend without any tugging on the skin like a lot of mineral formulas. - Matte finish but with a subtle glow. - Tint provides light coverage to even out skin, though does not cover everything. As someone who rarely wears makeup I appreciate the subtle coverage which does not look overdone but helps my skin look better. - Does not emphasize occasional tretinoin dry patches. Some of my other sunscreens (even tinted) seem to make dry patches look worse. This formula covers them without emphasizing (or irritating) them. - Does not feel heavy on my skin. I can't stand feeling sunscreen on my face (or anything which is the main reason I do not wear much makeup) and this formula is so light once it is on I forget it is there. -Light coverage lasts all day if I don't sweat. Needs some reapplication when sweating. -Does seem to provide SPF 30 coverage. With reports about sunscreens underperforming lately, this one does appear to work. I can burn in less than 15-20 minutes in full sun, but no problems with this sunscreen when reapplied after sweating or long sun exposure (I work outdoors as a field biologist, so this one is huge. While I usually wear a hat, it does not cover everything as I cannot use a wide brim hat for my work.) CONS: - The tube. It is not awful, but I always seem to get a build up of product in the cap no matter what I do. This seems like a waste of product, but is really a minor complaint. - It does separate, but states clearly to shake before use. It seems to mix easily, so this is not really a con, just a warning to give it a good shake. - Would love an option for an SPF 50, but again, minor complaint. Overall, this is by far the best mineral facial sunscreen I have found so far for my particular skin and is used daily. The only reason I ever use anything else is to try to use them up. Other brands I have tried include: Undefined R&R sun serum SPF 50 ( a little too "glowy", emphasizes pores, and has niacinimide which I have to use with caution), Naked Sundays Collagen Glow mineral sunscreen SPF 50 (heavier and feel it on skin, but is my go-to when I must have SPF 50), CoTZ Flawless Complexion SPF 50 (feels heavy and not waterproof. Also even though I can'y find any chemical boosters in ingredients, something in this one makes my skin feel like it is on fire when in the sun), Cocokind daily SPF 32 (ok for a non tinted formula as not much whitecast, but does feel heavier than I would like), Murad City Skin Age Defense SPF 50 ( just too expensive), Koh Gen Do Watery Spa UV SPF 50 (my go-to non tinted formula these days though I still feel it on my skin and not waterproof and think it has been reformulated recently), Vanicream Facial Moisturizer SPF 30 (too thick and heavy), Hero Force Shield SPF 30 (was my favorite next to the Sun Bum until I realized the reaction in the sun was from the chemical booster Butyloctyl salicylate 😩), Agency SilkScreen SPF 50 (was ok, a bit too greasy and not much coverage, but went to back of pack as it has chemical boosters), Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Pure Mineral SPF 50 (I loved this formula and purchased several times before finally learning the reaction in the sun was from chemical boosters), Cetaphil Sunscreen Face Drops SPF 50 (quit using due to flaming face in sun as this one also has chemical boosters), and Etude Sunprise SPF 50 (only used ocassionally due to fragrance, but liked this formula until I clued into chemical boosters).

I am a longtime user of COOLA’s previously similar product, which for me served as my only makeup. But they changed their formula and I was on a desperate hunt for a new solution. A website that analyses products and suggests duplicates offered this one, which I had seen but was not sure about. It’s fantastic! Goes on lightweight and powdery rather than greasy and shiny, really does mattify, and though it looks dark in the tube, it is really sheer coverage and suits my light/medium complexion. Plus, it is less than half the price of my previous product. For sure, it is not as natural/safe as some will want in a primer/sunscreen, but I’m thrilled and have left a review on the COOLA page telling the upset folks (there are many) to come over to Sun Bum.

I loved the feel of the product going on - so silky. I didn’t find it made a lot of difference as far as shine, and unfortunately it seemed to break me out a bit (sensitive skin here). The color worked for my fair skin, although it was slightly on the darker side.

Title says it all. This is my holy grail face SPF. It’s mineral and non-toxic. It’s lightly tinted so it looks beautiful on your skin alone and helps even out your skin. It’s also matte so it wears well under makeup. It’s moisturizing and applies and blends smoothly onto the skin. Amazing product. I have it on subscribe and save.

I was looking for the right tinted sunscreen to wear for those summer days when I don't want to wear makeup. I always felt like I had to wear makeup to hide the shininess of my face because I have PCOS and very oily skin. My face always gets greasy (even with moisturizer) and I struggled to find something that would look natural and not feel heavy on my skin. I absolutely LOVE this product. I apply it after my moisturizer and it goes on silky smooth - feels like butter for your face. So soft. It's not sticky or greasy at all like some traditional sunscreens/moisturizers. It is exactly what I was looking for. It has a light tint to hide some redness but if you have a couple of breakouts, you may have to apply some concealer over the spots that are noticable. This is a great product though for people with oily skin looking for a non greasy product. It stays pretty matte too, takes away that shine I used to get throughout the day. If you sweat a lot or get your face wet, you'll need to reapply after a while, but overall this product is great. I will definitely be using this on those my no makeup days from now on. If you have very oily skin too, but this. You won't regret it.

I love this sunscreen. I have never had luck with primers so never used them. But this acts as a really good primer! I was blown away. Not sure why people talk about how much you'd need to use to get the sun protection, but I just use a small amount and have never burned. I am very light complected, so I recommend it for light skin protection. The lid is yucky, so I just unscrew it instead of using the flip top and it stays nice and clean.

EDIT 05/29/22: I'm updating my review and lowering my rating to 3 stars. Unfortunately after several weeks of daily usage, the sunscreen began to separate inside the tube. I can feel it sloshing around in the tube. If it's not shaken up properly, a gross oily liquid comes out from the top. I have to shake it up each time to make sure all the ingredients are mixed together. At this point I'm concerned that the sunscreen formula isn't evenly distributed and I'm not sure if what I'm getting is full sun protection or just color tint. It's a shame because I really love the matte finish. This is still my go-to sunscreen for casual daily usage, but the separation of ingredients makes me think I might have to try the untinted version next time. --- ORIGINAL REVIEW: After years of searching for a sunscreen that won't turn my face into a shiny, oily mess, I've finally found the perfect sunscreen. I've tried all kinds of sunscreens—mineral and chemical—even the ones that claim to be "matte" and all of them made my face look awful. Sticky, shiny, and just gross. I tend to skip sunscreen unless I'm swimming because otherwise I just hate the way it makes my face look. But this is the solution I've been looking for! I bought the tinted mineral version. It spreads smoothly on my skin with a wonderfully light texture. The tint is very, very subtle and it disappeared into my skin within minutes. Nobody will be able to tell you have it on. Best of all, there's no shine, no oily residue, it's completely matte. I don't even need to wear makeup primer because this seems to create a perfect base for my skin. I'm so happy I found this. I'd recommend it to anyone. It's completely gender neutral and the tint seems to do a great job of balancing out that famous chalky whiteness most mineral sunscreens have. There was no white residue at all on my face, even at the end of the day. It's amazing. Oh, and it's unscented, too. I saw a couple of reviews that mentioned a damaged or expired product. Mine came in a box that was slightly crushed, but the tube itself was in perfect condition and had a foil seal on the tip. It has an expiration of 03/2024. Amazon.com was the seller. Get this sunscreen and enjoy your summer! :)
