How we score →Yay
3 experts · Moderate agreementWhat the gurus are saying
This blush blends seamlessly and delivers serious pigment, so a tiny amount covers the cheeks without looking patchy or greasy. The formula glides on smoothly with a natural dewy finish that reads fresh rather than sticky. Those who like a nude tone may want to build it gradually, since even the lightest shade packs enough color to go darker than expected with a heavy hand.

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

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
