What the gurus are saying

The primer-like texture and slip earn praise from those with oily skin or who prefer that gliding feel, making it a strong match for people seeking a sunscreen that works like a base product. One reviewer found the texture off-putting, so the primer-like quality is genuinely divisive. Those curious may want to patch-test first to see if that silky slip works for them.

"If you have oily skin or really like that primer-like texture with that slip, then you're going to love the Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen for Body that's SPF 40. [...] It's 100% invisible, weightless, and scentless gel texture that offers SPF 40 broadspectrum protection and 40 minutes of water resistant activity. It's really designed for body to offer the hydration but at the same time without that stickiness."

"It's just such a nice elegant body sunscreen and I find that one of the biggest challenges for people not wanting to put sunscreen on their body is just most people don't like the stickiness, the greasiness, and the texture. In this one you will really not have any problems with that. And so for the summertime, especially if you're looking for a good sunscreen to use on the body, this is one must try."

"You put it on and some of it slides off, you gotta be very careful with how you're putting it on. Since it is a body product, [...] the way I use body products, especially body moisturizers or body sunscreen, [...] it could be this kind of stuff all over the place. I'm pretty clumsy, so if some of this gets on the floor in the bathroom and then I slip and fall, that's a problem. It just feels weird on the skin."

What the evidence says.

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

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.
