Description
What It Is: This SPF 50 hydrates just as well as it protects. This gel-cream sunscreen has a dewy, glowy finish that perks up skin and keeps skin moisturized.
For: All skin types
What It Solves: This glowy sunscreen delivers a lightweight texture that never pills under makeup, and doesn’t leave a white cast. Using rich butters, amino acids, and a ceramide identical to those that exist naturally in our skin, this sunscreen delivers nourishing hydration while preventing water loss.
How to use: How: Gently smooth an even, generous layer all over skin 15 minutes before sun exposure or as the last step in your morning skincare routine. Use on face and neck.
Good to know: When applying SPF, we go by the two-finger rule: apply product on the length of two fingers for the perfect amount of protection. Yes, it may seem like a lot, but if you rub it in thoroughly and give it a few minutes to sit, your skin will soak it up.

Oily Sunscreen

Well it’s a sunscreen it does its job, but it isn’t a every day face sun screen. It definitely has a sun screen smell and is VERY oily and greasy, I can literally see it separating on my fingers before I put it on. If you are an oily person this is not for you. It’s so oily that I have to put powder on after so I don’t shine like a light bulb. I don’t wear makeup but I can definitely tell this would flake with makeup on bc it does it without makeup. A decent sunscreen for days where you will be out in the sun and need more protection but I will just buy a cheaper one in CVS for the same thing. Finishing out the bottle I have but will not be repurchasing.

The formula is lightweight and blends in nicely but looks oily on combo and oily skin. Also irritates and burns my eyes.

I have oily/combination skin and this sunscreen never “set” or dried down. My face looked super oily and felt like it had a film on it.

No white cast. No scent. Very light formula doesn’t feel greasy or anything! I started using it and my husband stole it from me so I will be purchasing another one. I truly live the fact that is spf 50!! My husband works outdoor most of the time so this is perfect! I have bought myself another one for me because the formula is incredible.

This sunscreen is great for sensitive skin. I have dry, rosacea and acne prone skin and it works well for me. It’s hydrating but not greasy, there is no scent and it’s great under makeup (no pilling). It does have a somewhat glowy finish but it isn’t overwhelming. Overall a great spf moisturizer.
Perfect

Don’t let the packaging size fool you, this sunscreen lasted over a month for me. It has almost a gel-like texture and goes on smooth. It leaves my skin feeling moisturized and looking glowy and healthy.
Makes my skin look & feel so good, burns my eyes :(

I’ve been using the previous versed guards up mineral sunscreen for a few years but it’s sadly being discontinued. Decided to give this a try and it’s very hydrating, has 0 white cast and has not bothered my acne prone skin!Unfortunately, this current sunscreen does irritate my eyes pretty badly it’s active ingredients are known to do such. Bring back the guards up mineral sunscreen!
Lovely Daily Spf!

Great spf moisturizer and sunscreen. Lightweight gel cream texture and wears nicely under makeup. I have tried this for a week now in the mornings and it has not broken me out or caused any sensitivity. It could definitely replace my old favorite!

Light but never fully absorbs so a greasy film stays on skin.

This goes on well, absorbs well, and looks nice. It seemed to even out my skin tone a bit. No sunburns. I used this on my kids too and it worked well for them.
Highly recommend

I took my time trying this product and I absolutely love the sunscreen. I have acne prone skin and this does not break me out.. it does not leave a white cast, and it also does not burn your eyes. It goes on really thin, which I love., even though I received this product for free, I would hundred percent buy it again!
My new favorite sunscreen!

I’ve been using the same sunscreen for a few years now but decided to give this one a try since my other one ran out. I love it! The texture is amazing, it goes on so smoothly, and there’s zero white cast. Obsessed!
A wonderful upgrade - best moisturizing SPF out there!

I received a bottle of Good Defense in exchange for an honest review, and I'm honestly here to tell you this is one of the best SPFs I've ever used on my face! It does not dry out my skin or make it feel sticky/stiff. No white cast at all! Perfect on its own or under makeup, and it doesn't make my sensitive skin itchy or break out like other SPFs sometimes do! I used to love the original Versed Good Defense sunscreen, but this upgrade has the original beat! I love it so much and I'm so excited to keep exploring the re-releases and new products coming out from Versed this year. I'm a forever Versed fan!
Great daily sunscreen!

Love the gel platform for this sunscreen because I feel like it’s a big factor in leaving my skin feeling glowy and hydrated! It doesn’t leave a white cast so it’s perfect on its own or as prep before applying makeup. It has a slight typical sunscreen scent, but overall I would say this is on-par with Korean sunscreens that are trending at the moment.
