VanicreamFacial Moisturizer with SPF 30 - Mineral Sunscreen - 2.5fl oz - Formulated Without Common Irritants for Those with Sensitive Skin

I’ve only been using this moisturizer with zinc oxide (sun protection) for a couple of weeks, and so far it’s great. Glides on smoothly, unlike thick sunscreens that can get blotchy, and it absorbs quickly. My skin feels very soft and fine lines disappear, so I know the moisturizer is working. I’ve had problems with the drying effects of sunscreen in the past. No discernible scent, which is a plus.It does leave a faint whitish cast that disappears after a minute or two, and my skin tone looks even. The very faint “glow” or hint of zinc oxide reduces some of the redder spots on my sensitive skin, so I am able to use this alone as foundation. Makes it easy to reapply every two hours to continue the sun protection.It’s important to remember that no sunscreen product lasts all day—always follow the directions and reapply to keep sun protection active.I really like the safety rating this cream received from EWG—this is rare for sun protection products. It’s not perfect, but since I have to moisturize and use sunscreen, this product gives me all that without added worry about health and safety concerns.I live in the Pacific Northwest and we haven’t had many full-sun days since I started using it, but so far the sunscreen factor seems to be working. Because this product glides on so easily I am able to avoid areas of missed coverage. I will update this review when I’ve tested it in the summer, but I expect that I’ll need a full sunscreen if I’m spending all day outside.Reading other reviews, I’m concerned to see that people use this as both day and nighttime moisturizer. Zinc oxide is one of the safer sunscreen options, but give your skin and overall health a break by using this only during the day (even on cloudy days). Wash your face in the evening and apply a non-zinc moisturizer overnight. I think Vanicream makes one if you like the way this product feels.

Regular sunscreens burn my sensitive eyes, but because this is mineral, it doesn't. Plus, no white cast! Great product for a great price. Doesn't dry my skin like other mineral sunscreens and gives a dewy, but not oily, finish under makeup which I like.

Really good and lightweight with no smell. It's really good for my sensitive skin. The only things I didn't like are that it takes a while to completely absorb and it's more on the greasy side (but way better than some others that I have tested). I would buy it again.

One of the very few sunscreens that doesn’t burn my eyeballs out of my head lol it is a tad dewy upon initial application but settles down after an hour or so. I know you’re technically supposed to reapply but I usually don’t and it lasts all day! Doesn’t cause any acne for me and I have super acne prone skin. Love that it’s affordable and pretty accessible!

Love this moisturizer with sunscreen. I am new to using Vanicream products as for some reason I always thought they would be expensive. Quite the contrary. These products are reasonably priced and are good for your skin. I love the moisturizing quality of this product along with the sunscreen benefit. This moisturizer doesn't feel like you're wearing sunscreen at all. It is silky and smooth. It has very little odor. And best of all, I haven't had any reactions to this product. Love Vanicream! Thank you for making a sunscreen I don't mind wearing.

I have been searching for a good facial sunscreen for a while. This is unfortunately another one for my bin of sunscreen flops. Note that I have very oily, sensitive, acne-prone skin. This product was used for typical daily wear (for me, taking several 10-minute walks in the hot summer sun throughout the day). I don't sweat much, but I am typically quite oily even without moisturizing products.Pros:- Very moisturizing. It would be good for someone with very dry skin. My skin looked exceptionally well hydrated.- Unscented. My skin tends to react poorly to scented products. This had no scent.- Does protect against the sun. With proper application, I have never burned with this product.Cons:- VERY greasy. I applied just enough sunscreen to cover my skin. It felt like I was covered in an oily film. My whole face had a slick sheen to it. It was especially greasy looking in the summer sun.- Does leave a slight white cast. I would say my skin tone is lightly tanned. There was a light but noticeable white film over my whole face, even after rubbing in and drying down for 15 minutes. Would be best for those with fairer skin tones.- Thick formulation. It was difficult to apply in a uniform layer because of how thick the product was. I prefer a more liquidy formulation for even, light coverage. It felt very oily/film-like on my skin even after drying down.
