Persistent white cast
The white cast persists through washing. I appreciate it's water resistant formula, but it's not for everyday use unless you're okay looking like a ghost at a high price point.

Nice scent, but the white cast was too much
I will not buy this sunscreen again. It left a very noticeable white cast and buildup on my face, which became even more intense with multiple applications throughout the day. While it was moisturizing and didn’t feel overly greasy, and it had a pleasant, non-typical sunscreen fragrance, the white residue was too much for me. I’ll be looking for a different sunscreen option.

Great sunscreen!
Super light on the skin! I was worried about it leaving a white cast but was pleasantly surprised by how well it absorbed into my skin. I’d really recommend it for anyone with sensitive skin!

Hydration, protection and skin-friendly care in on
I really love the CeraVe Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF Face Lotion. It feels super lightweight on my skin, not greasy at all, and keeps my face hydrated throughout the day. I also like that it has ceramides and hyaluronic acid, so it protects my skin while taking care of it. It blends nicely and works great for everyday use. I also like that the packaging is recyclable, which makes it a more eco-friendly option.

This product keeps my face hydrated and smooth wit
This is an amazing product, by using it I have discover that I really like how absorbs into my skin. At first it feels think, but after a few seconds it feels in nicely and doesn’t feel greasy. It leaves face feeling hydrated and smooth. With their hyaluronic acid and ceramides that helps keep in the moisture. At first it doesn’t look invisible completely but after is blended it sits comfortable on skin without feeling heavy. My skin feels very fresh and not irritation at all.

White as theater makeup
This is not even usable due to how white it leaves your face and the fact it does not rub in AT ALL. I don't know anyone who would leave the house looking like this. Bad joke, Cerave.

Hello Ravenustar! Thank you for sharing your feedback on our Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 Face Lotion. We are sorry to hear that the visible white cast has made this formula unusable for your daily routine, as we strive to provide effective and comfortable sun protection for all skin types. Because this 100% mineral sunscreen relies on high concentrations of physical filters like Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide for broad-spectrum protection, it can naturally leave a white finish on many skin tones. To help the rich texture blend more effectively, we recommend applying the lotion in small, separate sections to one area at a time and gently warming the product between your fingertips before pressing it firmly into the skin. We truly appreciate your honest review as we continue to develop more inclusive and invisible sun care solutions.

They are recommended by dermatologists
CeraVe sunscreen is good for particularly sensitive dry skin, because they combine broad - spectrum SPF protection with three essential ceramides and niacinamide to restore the skin barrier and hydrate.

Super Visible White Cast
This gives noticeable white cast on my face. I still use it when I am just staying at home so it won’t go to waste. The packaging is nice, the texture is rich and thick. You can get a zero white cast sunscreen for its price. So if you go out everyday, this sunscreen is not for you

Hello RhodoraB! Thank you for sharing your feedback on our Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 Face Lotion. We are pleased to hear that you enjoy the rich, thick texture of this formula, as it is specifically designed to provide intense hydration and barrier support for more sensitive skin types. Because this 100% mineral sunscreen relies on high concentrations of Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide for physical protection, it can naturally leave a visible white cast on certain skin tones. To help the mineral filters blend more seamlessly, we recommend applying the lotion in small amounts to one area at a time and warming the product between your fingertips before gently pressing it into the skin. We truly appreciate your honest review and your resourcefulness in incorporating it into your at-home routine.

budget friendly hydrating spf
Are you looking for budget friendly mineral sunscreen? I bought this sunscreen couple of months back, it does leave the white cast which many of us don’t like. But be careful if you have sensitive skin skin like me

effective but you will look like a ghost
I hate this sunscreen. It leaves such a white cast on my face, in my eyebrows, and on my hairline. It's almost impossible to rub all the way in. However, it does protect you from the sun. I apply it every morning (for almost a year) and have not gotten a burn or tan on my face. I am dying to switch back to my old one but unfortunately, this bottle lasts forever!

Love it! Beautiful glow!
I love the glow this sunscreen gives me. I get a lot of compliments on my skin whenever I wear it. Sometimes I don’t even have to push foundation or concealer on with it.

Don't get it.
It is super thick and doesn’t get absorbed into the skin. Leave my skin looking white washed, and I already have light skin.

Hello TO! We are deeply sorry to hear that you received an expired Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen and that your delivery from Target was less than perfect. At CeraVe, we always aim to provide our customers with a high-value and rewarding shopping experience, and it is clear that this particular shipment was unacceptable. Our mineral sunscreen is specifically engineered with a 100% mineral-based formula and three essential ceramides to provide broad-spectrum UV protection while respecting the skin's moisture barrier for a more balanced and radiant finish. To help our products stay in peak condition, we suggest storing them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the formula. Since this order was placed through Target, we recommend reaching out to their customer service department directly to discuss the expired product and to arrange for a fresh replacement or refund. We hope you will still enjoy the high-performance benefits of our mineral sunscreen and we truly value your patience and support. We want to ensure you are able to fully enjoy our products in the pristine condition you deserve. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.

Great product for sensitive skin
Great product. I have hair extensions so I need to be careful with sunscreen which can discolor them. This is safe with extensions and blends well. I was worried I’d have a white face but it blended well and dried clear. I have rosacea and it protected my skin without irritating it. I will definitely buy it again.
