"This is their Warm Glow shade and I've been liking it a lot. I do tend to use a tinted sunscreen when I go to the gym just because I feel like I just want to look a little bit refreshed when I go to the gym. [...] What I do before the gym is splash my face with some water, I throw my sunscreen on and then I'll curl my lashes and do my brows, like put a little brow gel into my brows and then I'll put on a lip balm. That's it. This [...] warmth that you're seeing to my skin, it's so pretty."

"It comes in three shades. I got it in the lightest tint which is called Universal. It feels slightly greasy but not heavy, it's very very shiny. The tint works well for my skin tone, it's easy to spread but it doesn't sit great on the skin and it slides around and comes off and is very settled into my neck wrinkles. This one got zero out of five points."

"It gives a very nice hydrated but not overly dewy finish. It's not greasy, it's not oily, and it doesn't peel on the skin surface. It goes underneath makeup just fine, and I really like how easy it is to spread on the skin surface. The niacinamide is at 3% strength which is a reasonable concentration. Fragrance free, does not burn or sting around the eyes, and it does not leave any kind of white chalky cast on the skin surface."

"This is the Iris and Romeo Weekend Skin, but it's not just an SPF 50. It's also a vitamin C and it's also basically a dewy glowy foundation. I've used this in San Francisco, I've used this in the hot hot heat of Arizona, I've used this in the pool, I've used this in a river. This is so good. [...] She wanted to create a sunscreen that made her look fantastic and could replace her foundation but also protected her and literally had vitamin C and skin care benefits."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Vitamin C

Topical vitamin C is an antioxidant with reasonable evidence for dullness and uneven tone. It breaks down in light and air, so how a product is formulated and packaged matters as much as the percentage on the front.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide has evidence behind it for redness, uneven tone and supporting the skin barrier, and it is usually well tolerated even by skin that reacts to most things.

Sunscreen filters

Sun protection is the best evidenced way to slow visible ageing, and the filters are what does the work. Mineral and chemical filters both protect when a product is applied thickly enough and often enough, which is where most people fall short rather than on the choice of filter.
