Designed for sensitive skin prone to redness and irritation; this is one of the few sunscreens that soothe my skin while giving light to medium coverage on days you don't feel like wearing makeup!

I stumbled upon this particular sunscreen on my Eurotrip this year during my French pharmacy haul and it is definitely one of the best purchases I've ever made…I bought 6. I used this daily after my moisturizer, put a skin tint on after and I did not...

A great addition to my morning routine which has helped to control my breakouts…I find it to be gentler than Tretinoin. Would recommend trying on a small portion of skin before applying to entire face to test sensitivity. Start with once weekly, then...
