This broke me out like crazy on my cheeks.. I wish I read the other reviews but apparently there’s coconut derived products in the formula. Really unfortunate! Stay away if you have acne prone skin

I have tried many different daytime SPF moisturizers and this is definitely one of the best ones I have used. It goes on so smooth, leaves no greasy or white cast feel. It makes my skin feel so soft. I like that it is a mineral sunscreen. I will be buying this one again as we get into spring/summer. I have sensitive skin and this has not caused any negative issues at all. I am very happy with this product.
Great for dry skin

This is my favorite mineral sunscreen. It's perfect for winter dry skin and relatively easy to rub in compared to other mineral sunscreens. Only wish they made it in a higher SPF
Started off great for me, but then..

I bought this because I have the moisturizer and face wash. I really loved it the first few days I used it but then noticed it was leaving orange residue along my hair line and my eyebrows! I haven’t seen any other reviews mentioning this so idk if I just got a janky one or what.
Great for dry eczema-prone skin

This is the only mineral sunscreen my skin tolerates! I have sensitive, dry facial eczema. This keeps it moisturized, rubs in well & leaves zero white cast on my tan skin. I also have acne on my forehead & so far it hasn’t made it worse.
Great Mineral Sunscreen

I like the moisturizing properties and the fact that it doesn’t irritate my skin. Chemical sunscreens tend to make me have a rash. Works well and has a bit of a cast for tan skin but dissipates once it’s rubbed in fully. Able to reapply without any issues.
Disappointing.

I didn’t read any reviews before purchasing because I like the original tub moisturizer so much, but this was a let down. Applied it once I got home, felt weird on my skin almost filmy and itchy, and it makes your face SO SHINY! Like not a cute hydrated glassy shine but like I rubbed a stick of butter on my face. I’m returning it. I’ll stick to my regular vanicream and a separate sunscreen instead of two in one.
Just WOW

It's a great sunscreen and moisturizer for sensitive skin I tried so many brands but nothing helped me except this lovely vanicream sunscreen thank you so much for providing this helpful product 😊

Lulu - 24 days ago, Verified purchaser
I really wish this worked!! I'm trying to find a natural mineral sunscreen for my face that doesn't have any comedogenic ingredients (like coconut oil) and was hoping this would be it. Overall, it's okay. I do suspect it was contributing slightly to a small break out, but nothing crazy. Another downside is that it's very thick and leaves my skin greasy. It also leaves a major whitecast, however if you rub it in sufficiently the whitecast goes almost completely away. Even though the whitecast and greasiness do seem to go away over time, I just kinda hate how it feels on my skin (very heavy) so I won't be repurchasing.
Meh

Not sure why Vanicream would’ve used a COCONUT derived ingredient! It’s pore-clogging… that’s exactly why this product is causing everyone breakouts, hence all the bad reviews about that. I love Vanicream products, but very disappointed about this one. Coconut oil is terrible for hair and the face. It’s a cheap ingredient that’s overused by far too many brands. Hopefully more people will start to catch on and realize this eventually.
Made me break out

Loved the glow it gave my skin. But instantly putting it on, it itched. I still kept using it though since I love the original moisturizer but after a while I notice it was clogging my pores, making me oilier and causing break outs. It stopped itching after 2 weeks, soo that’s a plus lol? I tried this for 2-3 months. My skin is sensitive soo maybe it’ll be great for someone else, even though it’s supposed to be for sensitive skin.

High hope for this but it wasn’t amazing under makeup and I’m 90% sure I’m breakout prone to it. It didn’t feel like it could be both a moisturizer and a spf.
Not the best in the line

I love all things vanicream however this one missed the mark I haven’t had painful huge breakouts in a long time after using this I got a giant inflamed cystic spot on my upper lip I stopped using this until it healed and to rule out that it was this sunscreen then tried it again only to get another huge painful one on my forehead that night and yes I do remove my sunscreen before bed using a double cleanse I will stick to my zitsticka sunscreen

Don’t want to make this so popular that it’s always sold out but I’ve tried just about every mineral sunscreen out there and this one is a top contender. No intense white cast, moisturizing, and affordable to boot.
So greasy

CN - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
I was really hoping to find something great with this - limited ingredients and spf to protect me from the sun. It does leave a slight white cast initially, but I have very fair skin and it's gone after a few minutes. My complaint is that it feels so "heavy," I can feel it on my skin all day long. I am a minimalist when it comes to beauty products, I don't wear make up, and I don't like to be able to feel it sitting on my skin. I may or may not finish this as I hate to waste things, but I won't buy it again.
Horrible

This has a horrible smell and is super greasy. I usually use Korean sunscreen but decided to give this a shot and highly regret it.
Pilling

Cass - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
I thought this would be a great moisturizer and SPF given when I scanned it on the Yuka app it received a high score. I have a fairly normal skin type, and when I applied it my skin felt very dry. I’m not sure if it was because I used it with a new serum but even when I used it with my normal daily facial oil, it started pilling (it looked like my face was full of dry flakes). Unfortunately I am going to have to return this product.
