Early verdict · Few reviews so farWhat the gurus are saying
A mineral SPF 30 makeup primer, this formula earns praise for its silky texture and how it sits under makeup without feeling greasy or oily. The luminous finish is present but subtle. However, as a standalone sunscreen and layered under makeup, it earns middle-of-the-road marks rather than exceptional ones, so it's best suited to those prioritizing the primer feel and daily coverage together rather than maximum sun protection.
