Description

Force Shield serves effortless UVA/UVB protection daily with a smooth, skin-like finish. Use it alone or as a primer – the gel formula plays well with makeup (and visibly blurs redness with a sheer green tint). Helps visibly balance redness with a barely-there green tint.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to like this product and I gave it several tries but it’s not for me unfortunately. Probably better suited for someone with paler skin. Also didn’t really feel like it protected as much as I wanted from the sun or helped with the redness, but that could also be me having really sensitive skin. It left a terrible and obvious white cast, like I had to go to bathroom and wash it off because I was embarrassed kind of moment. Yikes. I’ll try to see if the illuminating one works for me instead. I also wasn’t a fan of the bottle and how it dispensed the product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve tried a lot of facial sunscreens that claim to be non-greasy and acne friendly and there was a much more expensive one that worked okay….but then I found this. It’s affordable and feels incredible on my skin! And I love the way my skin looks with it on. Very subtly tones down the redness and I just look glowy and hydrated. And it hasn’t made me break out once! Which is very rare when I try new products.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sunscreen has become a permanent part of my daily routine. It feels super light and non-greasy. The spf is higher than what I've found for most daily sunscreens. And I love the green tint. The color correction is subtle, but I've found it really works for me. I'm definitely a happy customer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For someone with acne-prone and oily skin, this has been the best discovery. It feels so lightweight and non-greasy on the skin. Goes great under makeup. I've tried many, many sunscreens targeted toward oily-skin and all of them were super greasy on the skin and weren't comfortable to wear and reapply, but not this one!! It's my holy grail and the green color-correcting is an added bonus!

This is honestly my holy grail sunscreen; the only reason I rated it 4 instead of 5 stars is because I wish it was SPF 50. I love how this goes on. It’s moisturizing but not greasy at all, it soaks in pretty quickly and leaves a nice semi matte/natural finish on the skin. It’s wonderful under makeup and the green tint isn’t noticeable when worn alone. I have severely acne prone skin and this not only is friendly for my breakouts, but it’s calming on my irritated skin. Also, NO pilling. Ever. Regardless of what I layer under or on top of this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been trying non comedogenic sunscreens for years, and none of them really are what they sell. This one absolutely is. It's extremely easy to apply as it isn't as dense. Hope we get a 50+ SPF soon.

This sunscreen dries nicely on the skin but it horribly burned. I have a history of eczema, rosacea, and acne. I really wanted to like it but it caused my skin to burn and appear red. Will be returning.
