White cast, matte, and non greasy
I wear the tinted version over this zinc/titanium one because this spf leaves a white cast. I am medium skinned and I don't like how this gives my face a white ghostly appearance. But the tinted one only has titanium in it, which doesn't cover as broad of a spectrum as this one. Wearing the tinted version over this spf reduces the white cast somewhat. But it is still very noticeable. However, this spf does not cause me to break out because I am acne prone. I continue to use this brand because of that factor only. I am still looking for another brand
( already tried mineral only spf from 30 brands) that can perform without the white cast and leave a matte finish like this one does.

A pleasure to apply!
At first, this goes on kind of oily, but it dries down to a silky finish and leaves my skin slightly mattified so that sunscreen reapplications don't feel as greasy or heavy. I have used the tinted mineral, gentle lotion, as well as this sunscreen to mattify my skin and prevent chemical sunscreen from traveling and irritating my eyes.
I only apply this once in the morning, so I can't speak for how the cast looks with reapplication. I find that the cast of this one is minimal in comparison to the gentle lotion. However, I would not recommend this for darker skin types to be worn alone; if you need to correct the ashy-ness, I have found that the zinc oxide and tinted mineral sunscreens layer well over each other with 10 minutes between layers. In comparison to the gentle lotion, the consistency of the fluid is far easier to spread evenly on the face. I am usually in a rush every morning, so I like being able to spread this product quickly. It's also a joy to apply every morning! I don't normally find applying products to be relaxing, but this one is lol

Excellent Sun Protection
I ran out of the sunscreen I get from my Derm (Elta UV Clear spf46.) Based on a review in INStyle, I went to my local Target and purchased this product. I hope Target never runs out, cuz this sunscreen is much better: lasts longer, not as greasy, smoother.

Awful
I do not recommend this at all if you're dark skin. I am light skin black woman and I actually dreaded wearing this because of how terrible of a white cast it would leave. Doesn't matter if you shake it well, moisturize before hand. It's not formulated for folks with melanin.

Great product
I purchased this about a month ago. I noticed that it is better when i mix it with my La Roche Posay Moisturizer, it blends better and dries quicker (5-7 minutes) and my face stays matte all day. This way works for me so im very happy

Excellent sunscreen
This sunscreen was recommended by my dermatologist. I have been treated for sun damage on my face and have been using this product for the last several years. Love the matte finish and lightweight feel.

Great texture
I've been using the tinted version for awhile, and decided to give this non-tinted version a try. It has the same wonderful silky texture, but I have to admit that I'm not as taken with this version as the tinted. It does give the skin a slight, white sheen. Not enough to make me want to return it, but I'd stick to the tinted version if I'm working. I like how light the product is. It goes on the skin easily and absorbs fast. I also like that this contains zinc. I feel that there is more protection with zinc included.
As for the reviews that claims that the texture is gritty or rough, I noticed that their products are bought at drug stores. Perhaps those products have expired? I've never had any issue with texture nor application, and I always buy from the website. Just a thought.

Great on-the-go facial sunscreen
This is a good purse-friendly, mineral (won't sting your eyes) sunscreen. Having it handy means that it's easy to reapply during the day, which is essential for spf protection. Its size is also great for sending in kids' backpacks and sport bags as well, for throughout-the-day face application. Its minimal cast dissipates well in a few minutes.
