One of the few tinted mineral sunscreens, you can follow the two-finger rule without looking too much!! Ance prone safe! Hydrating, but not greasy. Since it has titanium dioxide, it helps with hyperpigmentation even more! Also has other ingredients that help with anti-aging too. A little pricey, but worth it. Best sunscreen ever. Read more

This is the best sunscreen I have ever used. I prefer this to some of the other medical grade products. It provides excellent protection and coverage. The tinted version is really universal even on the fairest of skin . I find I don’t need foundation and use only a moisturizer with this sunscreen and a bit of blush or bronzer in the summer . Note you will need to do a double cleansing with this sunscreen at night to remove it thoroughly. Read more

Love this sunscreen- offers great protection (was out in the sun for 6 hours, re-applied halfway), had no sunburn on my face but had painful sunburn on my neck/chest area as I forgot to put sunscreen on those areas! As the other reviewer said, tint is a perfect match for warm/light-medium skin tones- I'm a MAC NC 35 for reference. The untinted one leaves a slight white cast when layered, but not that noticeable in natural light, but is captured on photos for sure. So, I use actinica for daily use, and layer or switch to ageless (tinted) for when I know pictures will be taken! Wish it was unscented, but I don't mind the scent. It's mild and pleasant. Non-greasy, texture is nice, light, and smooth. Did not cause me to break-out. Highly recommend! Read more

The good. Very lovely liquid tinted sunscreen that easily applies and dries down matte on unmoisturized combination skin. No white cast for a Fitz IV. Contains DNA repair enzymes which purportedly reverse previous sun damage from the days before you were a fastidious sunscreen queen. Iron oxides even skin tone without making you feel like you’re wearing makeup, and also provide additional protection against visible light which can contribute to hyperpigmentation. The bad. It has fragrance which is somewhat baby powdery in its aroma. Not great but also not the worst. It’s a bit pricey but subscribe & save for 10% off is a solid deal. Also, it’s a rather large bottle at 100 mL so it’s akin to paying 35ish for a 50 mL bottle which isn’t cheap, but isn’t too bad. While it boasts a good SPF, and while there is more to UVA protection then concentration of zinc oxide, specifically formulation, I cannot help but be dubious of its UVA protection, particularly at longer wavelengths. At the end of the (sunny summer) day, UVA protection is far more important for skin aging than DNA repair enzymes which may or may not penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin in sufficient quantities to actually make a clinically significant difference. The ugly. For combination skin using tretinoin thrice weekly, it can be rather drying particularly with repeated applications throughout the day. TL;DR In spite of my concerns about potentially suboptimal UVA protection from a mineral sunscreen, concurrent with my problematic desire to look like I’m in my 20s forever, I think the potential benefits of DNA repair enzymes are worth the pain in the wallet and potential dryness that must be counteracted with a base of moisturizer. Postscript. Most combo skin types living in humid climates don’t need a separate moisturizer in addition to their sunscreen, but this product is a clear exception. I circumvent the dryness by applying an oil absorbing moisturizer beforehand (Cetaphil Derma Control; chemical sunscreen SPF30), which permits me to maintain the delicate balance required for managing combination tretinoin thrice weekly skin adjusting to life/hell in a horribly humid climate. Given my concerns about how adequately a zinc oxide sunscreen will protect against longer wavelengths of UVA, and the fact that reapplying tinted sunscreen when out and about without access to plumbing is awkward and annoying, I tend to exclusively wear this sunscreen when I’m working, (aka indoors where people can see me) or out of doors at times of day when the UV index is low.

What impresses me most is how gentle it is: no irritation, no breakouts, even when I wear it every day. It also doubles as a great base before makeup: skin looks fresh, radiant, and protected. Read more

This is my favorite under-makeup sunscreen. My makeup stays in place when applying on top and the tint in the sunblock prevents the weird white spots Read more
