Reviews For SkinCeuticals Physical Fusion UV Defense Tinted Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50
i have expected a little bit more
I live in sunny country 365 days of the year, I specifically bought this spf to protect me during the days when I use retinol products at night. I have combo dehydrated skin. The formula is very very oily and it has a very strong chemical scent (I am not that sensitive to the scent usually). Just remembering how it smell puts me off from using it. However after I have a peel treatment my skin becomes more normal - oily (around for a month) and I am able to use it more often. If you layer some before and then put another layer once absorbed, it is not that oily. Bottom line: not for combo-oily skin, and applies best by layering.

skinceutical physical fusion UV defense
This is my first time using this product.. I don't feel that the tinting provides any coverage and a short while after applying my face had a slight burning sensation. The other product I have used provides a bit of coverage with the tinting and it also has a higher SPF. No burning.. I will not purchase again.

I think your skin really needs to be exfoliated before using this. I do love how it evens out my skin tone, but my face tends to look dry with it on sometimes. Im in search of a good moisturizer that I can put on underneath it.

At first, this tinted formula looks a lot darker than my skin (I have moderate-fair skin) but It did not look odd on my face. It was just OK. but It does have some kind of grey-sh shade in it. I have extra sensitive skin and every time when I apply this, I could feel something irritating my skin for a short moment. I still dont know why but It didnt make me to break out.

Perfect, but broke me out
I really wanted to love this product. Besides the size of the bottle (tiny for the price), I loved everything about it. The sunscreen feels oily when you first apply it but within a minute, you feel nothing but dry, soft, skin. No glaring shine, and definitely none of the unflattering white translucence you get from other sunscreen. I also felt that the little tint it had also somewhat covered up my redness. Could be used a a primer! BUT. A day after I started using this sunscreen, I started getting zits, small and large, painful and not painful, all over my face. I have a somewhat sensitive skin and cant use certain products like Bobbi Brown (another unfortunate..) without breaking out but hadnt expected this one to break me out. I stopped using the product after the first day and within 2 days, most of the zits are gone. So I had correctly identified this sunscreen as the zit-producing factor. I read somewhere after purchasing this product that it contains some ingredients that can clog pores. Perhaps those are the culprits.

too dark for really pale skin
This is an elegant, lovely product which would work really well for most people, including people with sensitive skin as it does not clog pores. It does not leave a white cast or a sheen, it is not greasy and it caused no breakouts for me. However it was too pale for my superpale (NC15) skin and it made my skin look dirty. They should come out with a lighter shade - I would definitely buy it.
