So bummed! I’ve used this for years! They changed the formulation with this new bottle I purchased (August 2025) and it pills terribly. Now I’m looking for something new. Too bad.

This pills like crazy leaving white stringy bits all over my face. It also sticks to dry patches and is impossible to rub in. I applied a small amount to a clean, dry face and got the same results. Would be impossible to blend in the proper amount of sunscreen without pilling!

I love how the packaging allows for easy cleaning when I spill! The formula itself has super safe and effective ingredients as well as a light fresh scent that isn't too overpowering! The sunscreen has a super smooth and blendable texture without a whitecast and always keeps my skin from burning outside! Highly recommend this!

Best facial lotion by far. Goes on smooth. My face loves it very much. It feels so soft to the touch and even leaves a glow. Try it. You won’t go back to any facial moisturizer.
I 10/10 recommend !

This left my skin still dry and actually stung a little bit! It might be something unique to my skin and a reaction, even though I rarely have those.

This moisturizer doesn’t rub in smoothly—it pills. I switched to Cetaphil’s daily moisturizer AM, and it doesn’t pill, rubs in nicely.

This leaves my skin feeling nice and moisturized. It’s the perfect consistency, not too heavy on the skin. I always take this on trips because it’s the perfect size to pack. There is also spf in it which is great for someone who is outside a lot!
Great moisturizer

Clean and non greasy but yet gives plenty of moisture. Not much scent. Easy to use packaging. I really like that it has sunscreen. My skin is sensitive and it did well with this product.

Must rub in fully or it leaves white streaks

This moisturizer has SPF in it making it the perfect step in your summer morning routine. As shown in the video, a little goes a long way. With that being said, it does take quite a bit rub in and if you don’t rub it in fully, it leaves white streaks as traditional sunscreen does. As long as you rub it in fully, it is a good moisturizer that lasts a long time and protects your skin from the sun.

Create effective product for skin. The texture of this is very thick, but it does not feel like anything at all on your skin. I love this because it also have our skincare. At the same time, it's a spf, so great for both of the reasons. The packaging of the product is nothing special. It is simple and nice the scent of the product. It definitely smells like spf, so not a very strong smell. I would highly recommend it the smell, the packaging the scent.Everything is great

I recently bought the spf 30 version because I loved the spf 50 version so much. This is horrible- it leaves a white cast and but worst of all it pills terribly when rubbing in, even on clean skin with no other skincare applied.
