Reviews For ARCONA ReOzone SPF 40
Former Holy Grail but reformulation forced me to move on
This was my HOLY GRAIL of facial sunscreen! The one! For years. And I have not found anything comparable before or since. I am very fair with sensitive thin skin and require constant and thorough sun protection. I wore it as a sunscreen. I wore it as a foundation. I wore it as a skin tint. I wore it as a primer. I wore it as a pore and line minimizer. Because the original Reozone made my skin look and feel silky-smooth, non-greasy, and perfectly matte enough to reduce the appearance of pores and lines but with just enough dewiness to look like natural skin. I cannot count the number of times that I received compliments about how "flawless" my skin appeared. The tint was just light enough to work for us very fair folk and the "slip" and texture made it easy to apply and set up. It never oxidized or turned orange. Unfortunately, Arcona's reformulation removed most of the redeeming features from Reozone 40. My Holy Grail was desecrated. The product's consistency changed from slip to tacky. The slip is lost, so the product won't blend out and it oxidizes quickly. The shade is now darker and the tone more orange which, unfortunately, makes it too dark for users with very fair to light colored skin but also too light for anyone with deep or dark colored skin. Basically, Arcona has succeeded in segregating their user demographic to a limited color range somewhere in the middle which just happens to be the demographic on which MOST other brands that manufacture tinted sunscreen remain laser focused. As if we need more medium colored tinted sunscreen products flooding the market. You could just bring back the original formula and color/shade for us fair-skinned folks who loved it. Maybe you can keep this one for medium skin colors and add a better darker tint for deeper colored folks. RIP, Holy Grail. RIP

Great Skin Protection
Lightly tinted, Reozone is the sun protection I needed and worked wonderfully without irritating my sensitive skin. I highly recommend this product! Thank you Arcona!!

My absolute favorite sunscreen
I love this sunscreen. For a while, Arcona discontinued it for 'reformulation', I think because it would clump up and lose its texture in weather over about 90F, if the bottle was shipped in summer or stored in a car or something. Anyways, the texture is amazing it's one of the only non-greasy high SPF formulas I have ever found. The tint is great for helping to avoid the white-casting effect of mineral sunscreen, though it is not completely canceled out (it's similar to wearing a Bb cream IMO). Definitely going to be a little off for darker skin tones, but if you're fair to medium, this is an amazing sunscreen for everyday wear. I use this alone without any foundation, and feel like it does a good job of evening out skin tone, but I think it would layer nicely under makeup for those who wear it. A bottle lasts me about 2-3 months, I use on face, neck, and backs of my hands every day. Worth the price, a little goes a long way :) essential if you're in a constant max UV zone like us in AZ.

New re-formulated ReOzone is really great
It took Arcona a couple of tries but their new version of ReOzone SPF 40 is really great. I've used Arcona for many years and like their natural approach to skin care. This product is another great addition to the line.

Best SPF for rosacea
I have tried at least 10 tinted SPF for my rosacea, and this product is the only one that works. It does not cause any irritation, plus it has a mild tint that camouflages the rosacea. The price is reasonable, and a little product goes a long way.
