Early verdict · Few reviews so farWhat the gurus are saying
This sunscreen shines on oily skin and in humid climates, thanks to its lightweight gel texture and alcohol content that keeps it from feeling heavy. The denatured alcohol gives it a slight drying edge, so anyone with dry or sensitive skin in cold climates may want to patch-test first or use it only in summer. Fragrance-free and water-resistant, it's a solid pick for people who need their sunscreen to stay matte through heat and humidity.
