  • Transparent, non-greasy formula leaves zero white cast or residue

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.

    I have fungal acne and this did not break me out at all. It was my favorite part of my skincare and when it ran out I cut the bottle open to scrape the last bits out. It was so moisturizing it left me glowing.

    Broke Me Out

    Like others have said, this broke me out, and I know it was this because it was the only new skincare product and stopped after I discontinued. I had acne on my chin and jawline and comedones on my forehead. It was fine as a sunscreen and rubbed in easily. It was a little heavy on the skin initially and made me a bit greasy, but I could have dealt with that if it didn’t break me out.

    I love this product, it adds to the dewiness and plumpness other products do for my face. Not overally greasy or heavy. Very much recommend for sensitive skin. 50 SPF at this price is rare and it’s also water resistant!

    Best SPF for my face I've ever used!

    I've tried many different SPFs, but this is the only one that doesn't seem to break me out, or make me feel greasy. Love that it has cleaner ingredients, and is a great face primer too!

    Doesn’t leave a white cast and leaves the skin glowy. When it dries down try not to touch your face since I had very slight issues with pilling. But other than that it’s now a staple

    Exactly what I need!

    Love love love. Been looking for a good spf to use but always have issues finding the right one. I’m 34, never had any work done on my face and I needed something that doesn’t leave a white cast, doesn’t burn my eyes, and gives me a Dewey look because I’m a super dry skin girlie. It’s lightweight and gives me such a nice glow, while being super hydrating. It wears well under makeup as well.

    New Formula, Still the Best

    I had been using the now discontinued Versed sunscreen formula (the one in the yellow bottle) for about three years now. I loved that sunscreen, and I'm very picky with sunscreens, so I was hesitant to try the new formula. I was pleasantly surprised though. The formula is definitely more "sunscreen-y" than the old one (it has that sunscreen scent to it, while the other one didn't), but it is still lightweight, moisturizing, and has no white cast, which are all things I value in my sunscreens. Despite the change, Versed still has the best sunscreen on the market, in my opinion.

    Moisturizing and Non-Irritating

    I switched to Versed recently after Olay suddenly started irritating my skin after years of use! The positives are: it works, it's moisturizing, it does not irritate my skin at all, even if I accidentally put it on my undereye area, it does not pill and has no white cast. The one con for me is I do find it to be greasy. Others have called it dewy, and maybe I'm just not used to that, but I feel it on my face somewhat and I see it somewhat in the mirror and am not used to that look. I feel like my hair sticks to it, etc. Olay had a matte formula that was completely dry, but then it started making my skin red and burn so there's that. I am absolutely sticking with this. I just have to either get used to the dewy look, or maybe powder my face after. I look similar in color to the blonde pale model they show, and you can see that her forehead, etc, looks a bit greasy. Or dewy!
