Please make tinted versions!
I have pretty touchy sensitive skin, and this sunscreen has calmed everything down so much compared to what I was using before. For that I have to give it 5 stars, and I'll definitely repurchase. The only issue is it leaves a slight white cast. This product would truly be a "hg" if it came in 3 or 5 lightly tinted shades. Please try it, Cetaphil!

Gentle, lightweight mineral sunscreen
This sunscreen is lightweight and blends in easily without leaving a heavy white cast, which is rare for a mineral formula. The drops feel silky and spread well, giving a smooth finish that layers nicely under makeup. I love that it’s fragrance-free and gentle, so it doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin or clog pores. The SPF 50 protection feels reliable for daily wear, and the packaging makes it easy to control the amount of product without waste. It does take a minute to fully absorb, but once it sets, it feels weightless and comfortable all day.

Settles into every crease and line
Applies fairly well, but does require some rubbing to eliminate the white cast. I'm pretty pale, and did notice a white cast. But the real problem is that after a half hour or so, it settled into any creases or lines on my face and neck, collecting as white lines. *Maybe* okay for using at the beach, but not for everyday wear.

Soo good I wear it everyday
The Perfect Everyday Mineral Sunscreen Cetaphil's Sheer Mineral Face Liquid Drops SPF 50 has become my absolute go-to for daily sun protection. After trying countless mineral sunscreens that left me looking like a ghost, this one truly impressed me with its innovative, lightweight formula. First off, the packaging is fantastic. The small bottle with a precise dropper top makes it incredibly easy to control how much product you use, which is a big plus for a liquid sunscreen. It's also compact and travel-friendly. The texture is what truly sets this sunscreen apart. It's a very fluid, almost serum-like consistency that glides on effortlessly. Unlike thicker zinc oxide formulas, it blends in quickly and feels feather-light on the skin, leaving a beautiful matte finish. The "sheer" claim is accurate, as it minimizes the dreaded white cast, making it a great option for a wide range of skin tones. It also works perfectly as a primer, creating a smooth base for makeup without any pilling or greasiness. As for the scent, there's practically none. It's fragrance-free, which is a major benefit for anyone with sensitive or reactive skin. The lack of a strong, overpowering sunscreen smell makes it a pleasure to apply every morning. Most importantly, the sun protection is reliable and effective. With a broad-spectrum SPF 50 and 100% mineral active ingredients (zinc oxide), I feel confident that my skin is well-protected against both UVA and UVB rays. It's also water-resistant for up to 80 minutes, which is a nice bonus for a product designed for daily use. This sunscreen has truly made it easier for me to be consistent with my sun care routine. Overall, if you're looking for a mineral sunscreen that feels good, looks great under makeup, and provides top-tier protection without a white cast, this is the one to try.
