CETAPHIL Sheer Mineral Sunscreen Lotion for Face & Body, 3 fl oz, 100% Mineral Sunscreen: Zinc Oxide & Titanium Dioxide, Broad Spectrum SPF 30, For Sensitive Skin

Bought this face sunscreen to wear under my makeup and its been great. Very lightweight. My makeup goes on so smoothly over the sunscreen drops. I will continue to purchase once I run out! Perfect for summer and also just an everyday wear to protect your face from sun!

this seems to be a great sunscreen, seems to be gentle for sensitive skin as i use it 24 hrs after microneedling. it does have a slight white sheen to it but it sinks into skin shortly after. it is mineral and high level of SPF..i will be using as my everyday sunblock as it is Cheaper than my favorite sunblock, which is mineral and argon oil mixed at 20 to $30 a bottle.As this is only a thirteen dollars and about the same size. The Sun block is all blended in to my skin in this pic.

I can't give it five stars because it isn't a true mineral sunscreen like it claims. Butyloctyl salicylate is a chemical filter that isn't regulated yet, so they snuck it into the inactive ingredients list. EWG doesn't consider it a high risk, so I'm going to use this anyway. Otherwise, this is a good sunscreen. It moisturizes well and leaves a satin finish. It does have a slight white cast, but I don't mind that. It counteracts my red tones.

This product is almost exactly like the one made by a company that starts with "Clin" and rhymes with "eek". Just like the expensive product it doesn't have a lot of fillers. It is in a liquid base that is easy to spread over the skin and doesn't leave a heavy or oily residue, so you can wear it over moisturizer or rosacea medication, and/or under makeup, which is why I love it. It a fraction of the price of the other product, only $11 for 1.7oz vs $37 for 1oz, and it is more water resistant and stays on better. But there are a few things I want to share so that people have realistic expectations.This type of product is a physical sun block, which means it works by spreading a thin layer of a mineral such as Zinc Oxide or Titanium Dioxide over the skin which shields the skin from the sun's harmful radiation. This particular product contains Zinc Oxide, which is a white powder that is often used in diaper rash cream as a skin protectant. You can even ingest it as a Zinc supplement. So there is a lot of evidence supporting the safety of Zinc Oxide.This is not the case for chemical sunscreens that contain Oxybenzone, Octinoxate, Avobenzone, and the like. There is growing evidence that chemicals like these are harmful to people and the environment, specifically coral reefs. Some of these chemicals are even banned in Europe and Australia. Because of these concerns many people are moving away from chemical sunscreens and are switching to Zinc Oxide. But there is a downside to Zinc Oxide.ALL sunscreens based on Zinc Oxide and/or Titanium Dioxide cause a white cast to the skin to some extent, that is how they work. You can minimize this by spreading the product in a very thin layer, which is easier to do with this product because of the thin consistency. But the white cast is still there no matter what. If the white cast bothers you, keep in mind that it means your skin is protected. You can add tint/pigment drops to the product to cover the whitish cast, or you can put makeup, tinted moisturizer or face powder over it to disguise it, but you can't avoid the whitish cast without using chemicals that are harmful to the environment and probably people too. Keep that in mind if you decide to try this product.

I love it! It doesn’t sting my eyes. I looked everywhere for an effective sunscreen that wouldn’t burn my eyes and this one is amazing! I only use it for around my eyes area because it leaves the whitish color where you apply it.

Compré la CETAPHIL Loción de protección solar mineral transparente para cara y cuerpo buscando una opción para mi piel sensible y que me ofreciera una buena protección solar debido a que vivo en la playa. Después de usarla durante varias semanas, aquí va mi experiencia con el producto:Aunque la CETAPHIL Loción de protección solar mineral tiene una protección excelente, debo decir que su textura es bastante densa y más espesa de lo que esperaba. Al principio, pensé que sería una loción ligera debido a su nombre "transparente", pero al aplicarla me sorprendió lo pesada que es. La fórmula se tarda un poco en absorber, y para quienes prefieren una sensación más ligera, esto podría ser un inconveniente.Otro detalle importante es que, a pesar de que el producto promete ser "transparente", deja una capa blanca en la piel. Aunque no es tan obvia como las cremas solares tradicionales, si se aplica una cantidad generosa, notarás que la piel queda visiblemente más blanca. En mi caso, me pareció que el producto me dejaba un tono blanco que no desaparecía con facilidad, lo cual no es ideal si tienes que estar al aire libre por un tiempo o si no te gusta esa sensación de "máscara" en la piel. Para quienes tienen la piel más oscura, este efecto puede ser aún más notable.Por otro lado, la protección solar de este producto es excelente. Con SPF 50 y protección de amplio espectro (UVA y UVB), me siento segura de que mi piel está bien protegida. No he experimentado quemaduras ni irritaciones, lo cual es crucial para mi tipo de piel sensible. Además, el producto no me ha causado brotes ni reacciones alérgicas, lo que siempre es un plus.La loción también mantiene mi piel hidratada, lo que es un beneficio adicional. A pesar de su textura densa, no me ha dejado la piel seca ni tirante. Sin embargo, como la fórmula es bastante rica, es posible que no sea suficiente para pieles extremadamente secas, que podrían necesitar una capa de crema hidratante adicional antes de la aplicación del protector solar.El envase es práctico, con un dosificador que permite controlar bien la cantidad de producto. El tamaño es adecuado para el uso diario y, aunque la textura densa hace que no necesites usar mucho producto, la botella me ha durado varias semanas. En cuanto a la durabilidad de la protección solar, es bastante buena, pero siempre recomiendo volver a aplicarlo si vas a estar mucho tiempo bajo el sol o sudando.El precio es razonable para un protector solar de buena calidad, pero teniendo en cuenta que deja la piel blanca y tiene una textura densa, no es mi opción favorita para usar todos los días. Si buscas una protección efectiva y no te molesta el tono blanco que deja, esta loción puede ser una excelente opción.

Very small but worth it depending on how much you'll need it. Very clean, good ingredients.

Tiny. Thick and a bit hard to spread all over my face. Need to mix with lotion or moisturizer. Does the job.
