Lots of pilling!!
Pastey and hard to spread. After blending and drying it pills so so badly. I tried putting it on before moisturizer, after moisturizer, no products underneath, no matter what it still was pilling horribly. For the price, I was very disappointed, will be returning. Only good thing I can say is that there is no greasy feeling.

Hello PaigeS! We are genuinely sorry to hear about your frustrating experience with our Anthelios Clear Skin Dry Touch Face Sunscreen for Acne Prone Skin SPF 60. It's truly disappointing when a product designed to protect your skin ends up causing such difficulties with application, and we understand your frustration with its pastey texture and particularly the pilling you experienced. We know how important it is for a daily sunscreen to integrate seamlessly into your routine, and it sounds like this one did not. We formulate our Anthelios Clear Skin Dry Touch Sunscreen to deliver high SPF protection with a matte, non-greasy finish, specifically for those with acne-prone skin who are looking to avoid shine and excess oil. While this formulation is designed to provide that dry-touch feel you appreciated, we deeply regret that it led to such significant pilling issues for you, regardless of how you tried to incorporate it into your regimen. Your feedback about the texture, spreadability, and pilling is incredibly valuable, and we appreciate you taking the time to share such detailed observations. We understand your decision to return the product, as we want every experience with our skincare to be a positive one.

Makes eyes burn and skin incredibly dry
Makes my eyes burn, does not feel like it’s suited for the face even though it is specifically branded as a face lotion. It made my skin feel extremely dry and made break outs often worse. It also had a white layer to it and didn’t get soaked in by my skin. I wasn’t able to layer makeup on top.

Turns white and forms clumps!
Decided to start a new routine and bought the full routine recommended for my skin type by the AI skin analysis tool. In the morning I apply the Vitamin C serum, followed by the Effaclar Mat daily moisturizer for oily skin and leave everything to dry for a few minutes. Great. Once I then apply the Athelios clear skin sunscreen, everything turns white and starts clumping together and peeling. I then have to rub off the clumps, essentially removing all the 3 layers from my face. Very frustrating and disappointing since I am used to using a moisturizer with sunscreen daily and just wasted money on this but will need to look for a different sunscreen that will actually blend well with the other two products.

Hello Nhingi202! We truly regret the pilling experience you're having with our Anthelios Clear Skin Oil Free Sunscreen when layered with your other products. We understand how frustrating this can be, especially when building a new routine. This "pilling" often occurs when products don't have enough time to fully absorb between applications or when certain ingredients react on the skin's surface. To help, we recommend allowing each product to dry completely before applying the next, and trying smaller amounts of each product with a gentle, patting motion. We hope these tips allow our sunscreen to integrate smoothly into your regimen, providing the protection you need.

Surprisingly excellent … highly recommend
This is the first sunscreen I have ever liked … I do not mind putting it on when I am going to be in the sun! My skin absorbs it well … my face is not greasy after using it and I honestly forget that I have it on! AND I make sure I ALWAYS pack it where ever I go … and that’s a first for me.

Non greasy
Non-reactive to my rosacea sensitive skin. Matte finish feels like I'm not wearing sunscreen.

Pills
Doesn’t leave a white cast but pills horribly on the skin. It is good for sensitive skin though because it has not broken me out, but there are other products that are way better

Issues with the formula
This sunscreen did not suit my skin. I have oily skin, its not too bad with oil control, but I did have issues with it pilling even when used alone or with other products. Also it did irritate my eyes. For those reasons I did not repurchase. Really hope they change their formulations here in the states, as I know oversees they have better formulations for those with oily skin and that don’t cause these issues. Especially for the price point, better quality needs to be delivered.

BEST sunscreen for oily skin
This is the BEST sunscreen I have ever used. I have oily skin, and I’ve never found a sunscreen that is anything other than a greasy mess on my face even if the label says oil free. This sunscreen is lightweight, matte finish, and almost a dry powdery feel after application. Great base under makeup. Did not pill up. Didnt burn my eyes. Very comfortable all day.

It’s not matte, look greasy on my skin
It feels heavy and it looks greasy on my skin I didn’t see nothing about a matte feeling and look of my skin and leaves a white cast, I’m medium skin tone

Hello Alterlight! Thank you for sharing your experience with our Anthelios Clear Skin Oil Free Sunscreen SPF 60. We truly appreciate your candid feedback. We are sorry to hear that you found the texture heavy, that it appeared greasy on your skin, and that it left a white cast, especially given your medium skin tone. Our Anthelios Clear Skin Oil Free Sunscreen is specifically formulated to provide broad-spectrum SPF 60 protection for oily and acne-prone skin types. Its "oil-free" nature means it is designed not to clog pores or contribute to breakouts, and it should typically absorb without a heavy or overly greasy feel. While this particular formula is not marketed as a mattifying sunscreen, it is designed to minimize shine and provide a clean finish. The appearance of a white cast can sometimes occur with sunscreens, and even with non-mineral formulations, proper blending and allowing the product to fully absorb can help. We value your insights as they help us continually understand how our products perform for our diverse community.

Allergy triggering!
If this prevents anyone else from getting a severe allergic reaction, I have done this review its justice. At first applying this product felt very drying with some white casting. Then once in the lake water (I had waited the 15-30 minutes before swimming), I gently rubbed it off my face to check water resistance. It basically washed off a milky white residue. Then the burning occurred. My cheeks felt hot. After swimming for an hour and wearing the spf hat I always wear in the sun, I showered and washed my face with my regular products. My face felt irritated. And there was redness near my eyelids. Later on in the night, I washed my face again. Burning. I took a Benadryl before bed. I woke up this morning with a swollen face! Eyelids and cheeks! Puffy! More Benadryl today and hopefully not to the urgent care. This sunscreen is the problem. NOT SAFE FOR SENSITIVE SKIN. I will only use mineral sunscreen. Hope this review helps someone else who has skin sensitivities.
