Did not work for me
2I have rosacea, and I was hoping this sunscreen will work for me, but, unfortunately, at the end of the day my skin is very irrirated and feels burned :( I tried two times. I applied it on top of revolution niacinamide serum and paula's choice calm restoring moisturiser. Will use this sunscreen for my body instead.

Nice sunscreen
5I bought this as the ingredients sounded very good and I liked the fact it uses minerals rather than so many chemicals. It feels nice on my skin and goes onto it very smoothly. It does initially leave a white cast but this mostly disappears once lightly massaged in. I have pale skin with some light brown pigmentation in places. Will buy again.

Great sunscreen
4No white cast if you massaged into skin, little bit oily when applied, but after few minutes oilyness is gone. Amazing ingriedient list, but recommend for normal to dry skin.

Disappointing
2I didn’t like this product at all. It feels thick and heavy on the skin and it leaves a white cast (I have a light to medium complexion). I am very disappointed. I am glad that I have decided to try a mini before purchasing the big bottle.

Complicated... But worth it if you have sensitive skin.
4I have sensitive, combo skin. So far, this is the only sunscreen that does not seem to break me out much, if at all. For this reason, I hope it never gets discontinued, although it's not perfect, hence all the bad reviews. It does pile if you're not careful (and even if you are quite frankly…). It can also be very drying if I use more than a finger’s length. Here is how I've managed to make it work: I apply less than I did at first, over a spritz of pure water and/or face oil. But it will dilute the protection a little. That’s fine for Paris’ winter or early spring, but I’ll try something different when summer comes. Zinc oxide makes this sunscreen extremely astringent. On the upside: it may have helped unclogged my skin. I usually have irregular texture, T-zone covered in tiny closed comedones, some small whiteheads. All that got much better. The white cast is something, even on my very pale ‘celtic’ skintone. As I don’t own a bronzer, I think I will either buy the Tinte version and/or the d-bronzi and mix it all up (the bronzi is said to me emollient): it may help cancel both the chalky look and the drying effect. All in all, to make it work *potentially* better, I would have to buy two to three products. Ehm. But it gives such a pretty radiant look when applied correctly that now, I forgo makeup altogether. I was told I looked good, well-rested. In a nutshell, this is a complicated sunscreen that I’d treat as a medication for sensitive skin that can’t tolerate any other one. I’ll keep using it until I find another one.

Meh
2I really wanted to like this, but it is a no from me. It pills and rubs off in balls on my face no matter what I wear underneath, not for my skin at all. I’ve tried a number of different ways to use this but no can’t get it to sit nicely on my face.

Perfect for me
5I bought it despite all the bad reviews as I love all the DE products and I don't regret it.I start by saying that I have a very fair/pale skin tone and I don't have any white cast when use it.It leaves my normal to dry skin hydrated and no problem under any makeup product : no changes in performance or pilling.The list of ingredients is really good and I've noticed a better appearance in my complexion compared to the previous SPF I used.

Disappointing
2I purchased this product thinking it would be worth the hype as I have seen countless celebrities and influencers endorse it. Skincare is a unique experience, so I can't say that this product doesn't work...it just doesn't work for me and my skin personally. I have combination skin, leaning more towards oily in my T zone, and sensitivities and blemishes including rosacea. This product felt very stripping and dried my skin out completely, to the point of flakiness! I will not buy again unfortunately.

Broke out - would not recommend
1I never usually break out with products across the board but I broke out the first time I used this. I’m currently wearing no makeup so by the process of elimination it had to be this. Have read a few other reviews who reported the same thing.

My first
5This was my first try at using sunscreen separately in my regime. I usually just opt for a foundation with sunscreen in it but recently, I’ve been using retinol so the advice is to use spf 30 as a minimum. It is white and very slightly grainy but it goes on nicely, melts into the skin and sits nicely under make up. I have worn it when going to bootcamp outside so got very sweaty and being ginger, I thought I would definitely burn but no. My skin didn’t burn, the cream didn’t turn white with my sweat and it didn’t sting my eyes or make them water. A little goes a long way, the packaging is fab and the smell is divine. I would buy again xx
