How to use

Morning only, as the last step after cleansing and any treatment. Apply liberally to the face about 15 minutes before sun exposure and let it absorb before makeup. Reapply at least every 2 hours, and after swimming or sweating.

Pros
  • Moisturizer and broad-spectrum SPF 30 in one step
  • Contains niacinamide, ceramides and hyaluronic acid alongside the sun filters
  • Fragrance-free and non-comedogenic, per the brand
Cons
  • Hybrid sunscreen: chemical filters (homosalate, octinoxate, octocrylene) plus 8% zinc oxide, so not mineral-only
  • Protection depends on applying liberally and reapplying about every 2 hours
