Perfect no frills moisturizer with SPF30

Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2024

Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

Bought this last minute to have a good moisturizer with SPF for travel. This 2oz tube was perfect for my needs. I don’t know how I didn’t know about this brand earlier, but it’s a great thing to have. Smooth and easy on my face, no smell, non greasy and absorbed quickly. A little bit goes a long way too! Provides a gentle glow, very smooth. Moisturizers tend to make my skin look greasy and this one did none of that. Very easy under my makeup-would recommend.

Big surprise!!

Size: 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

When I initially saw the product in “real life”.. my jaw dropped!! I felt it looked smaller then I imagined.., so unopposed I sent it back..
then I received a second one ( no charge for some reason!!)
I figured , “ let me try it”.
I tried it and loved it!!
My skin immediately felt better and looked silky!!
Love it now.. will rate this excellent!
Enjoy!! ( Sun doesn’t scare my face now)!!

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2024

Size: 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

I like to use this moisturizer when I plan on wearing makeup that day. It leaves a silvery shine to the skin which I find is great at making my foundation glowy. I don't find that it moisturizes as well as I'd like it to, so I use another moisturizer underneath this one. I would purchase again though because it is a really nice product.

Very good product. I wear it at the scorching Dominican Republic sun and had no any signs of burn. The only thing, you should not put the product if you are on a beach since it is not water proof.

Extremely happy with the sunscreen

Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2023

Size: 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

I am very picky when it comes to sunscreen on my face. I have found very few that I like this one does not burn your eyes. That is an issue that I have found with a lot of facial sunscreens. They either burn your eyes or they’re very white the lotion is an earthy neutral color maybe a very light brown in color this is a especially helpful when you don’t have very light skin cause some sunscreen can make your skin look lighter and give it a white cast. I am older and have dry skin so I kinda wish that it was a little bit more hydrating, however I don’t think it was geared for older or dryer, skins, but for sunscreen it’s excellent. I am a glow girl, so I like the fact that it gives some glow to the skin is a winner for me. I would probably repurchase, but I wanted to buy a small one just to be sure I liked it. You really need a sunscreen if you use retinol and alpha hydroxy and BHA.

No Worth It

Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2024

Size: 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

First of all it has an expiration date of approximately one month from purchase! The size is quite small for what it costs….. more like a travel size. Better deals/products at your local drugstore.

This SPF30 is bae ♥️

Reviewed in India on June 2, 2021

Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

I am sucker of mineral sunscreen, call it moisturizer with SPF or call it SpF with moisturizer, whatever you name it does the job beautifully
Certainly will stay my forever best lightweight SPF , like usual I have stocked this up like other Paula’s choice products I use ( it’s pandemic & out of stock is not happy feeling 😬) , this spf beautifully suits normal to dry skin and like the name suggest Defence glow, it literally adds glow which is quite visible and I totally love it ♥️
Application: I apply two thin layer and it perfectly saves my skin from Sun damages and also soothes irritated skin if any !

Ps : it’s only SPF 30 so it’s perfect for indoor , I wear sunscreen daily & as it’s mineral sunscreen one can safely apply around the eye & on top of lips .. it never stings or irritate skin
However if stepping outdoor and staying longer under the sun then apply a spf 50 preferably mineral 🙌🏻

It’s good for people with dry skin. Texture is good but not suitable for oily people or acne prone skin.
