Reviews For SkinCeuticals Sheer Physical UV Defense Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50
Love the non-tinted version for my very pale skin
I see a lot of reviews complaining of the white cast it leaves on their skin. i'm so fair-skinned that it blends right in. the tinted version of this or any other sunscreen leaves me with an orange or brownish cast so i look like my face is dirty and needs to be washed--like i 've spent a day in the garden and a thin film of dirt has stuck to my face. so i have the opposite problem as most reviewers. i hope they never discontinue this non-tinted version because it is the only one that i've found that doesn't do that and also sinks in without leaving my face feeling greasy. i never break out and my skin stays lovely and wrinkle free. i guess in a way it *is* tinted but the tint of white matches my light skin.

Not for me
Not in love with this sunscreen unfortunately. I had high hopes since this is from a brand I otherwise love. It does leave a white cast on my tan Indian skin.

Lightweight feel, heavy weight protection
I use Sheer Physical sunscreen daily on my neck and shoulders and arms as I am outside in the sunshine every day. It absorbs quickly but provides powerful protection. I use Skinceuticals Physical Fusion with a slight tint for my face. I prefer to use Sheer Physical on my body parts so I do not leave a makeup like residue on my clothing.

This is a great sunscreen! I use it daily, often in the place of foundation. The color blends and matches perfectly. The consistently is really thin but the coverage is great. I used it all summer and it provided great sun protection.

Love this sunscreen
This is my favorite everyday sunscreen. It goes on easily and the light tint keeps you from having a white cast like many other mineral sunscreens leave.

It’s good but not my favorite
I like this for my chest and body but on my face it leaves a white cast.

Lightweight Sunscreen
Very sheer sunscreen. Blends into skin very easily and works great under makeup.

Leaves a chalky residue
I was hoping this would just be the clear version of the tinted SkinCeuticals Physical UV Defense Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 that I love. Wrong. This leaves me looking ghostly. Boo!

Feels great, but takes time to soak in
I love the level of protection and how this feels on my skin. But it leaves a white cast on my face for a while. I plan to mostly use this on days when I'll be out in the direct sun instead of a day-to-day sunscreen.

Sheer mineral sunscreen
I have sensitive, redness prone, normal-to-dry skin with acne rosacea. This Sheer Mineral Sunscreen is the best. It's not greasy and doesn't cause breakouts. Sheer leaves a white cast, though, so I prefer the Tinted version.

Perfect Sunscreen
I purchased tis sunscreen for my husband. He's out in the sun a lot and needed a daily sunscreen. He uses it regular and has no complaints above it feeling heavy or greasy. I will certainly purchase this product again when he runs out.

The Only Sunsceen I can commit to
This is the only sunscreen that I can commit to for every day use. It is light, odorless and colorless. I use this product on my neck and chest and the tinted version on my face. I love them both and never leave the house without them protecting my skin.

Greatly Improved Product
I used the previous formulation of the SkinCeuticals SPF50 sunscreen. So, was a bit dismayed when I found it had been reformulated. However, the new formulation is far superior! It is non-greasy, leaves no white tint on your skin, and is much easier in this liquid format to spread and apply. Besides using it on arms, legs and chest, I can also use this on my face and neck under makeup with no greasiness at all. I am very fair skinned and burn easily. This is my daily sunscreen go to.

Not bad for a mineral SPF
I bought it to try yet another mineral sunscreen, as I needed a reef safe option and higher SPF than my typical daily sunscreen. It’s ok. I press it in, it seems lightweight but ends up feeling heavy and sticky after a day of reapplying. It does a decent job protecting from sun with a minimal white cast. I’m fair skinned and wear a hat anytime I’m in the sun but still don’t want to look more white and I’m not a fan of all over tints (especially since my whole family uses whatever SPF I hand them, which is whatever I’m using). This is a pretty good mineral option but I’ll stick to a nicer, chemical (I know, ick) formula for my every day.

Great Product!
Bought this for my teenage brother so that he would have an SPF in his regimen. I’ve used this before and we both felt that it was really light, no white cast, and blends in the skin nicely.

Skinceuticals Sheer Physical UV Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50
I love this sunscreen! I’m always apprehensive about trying new products on my face because my skin is so sensitive. It didn’t make my skin greasy, and it didn’t make me break out. I was thrilled!!

Best sunscreen for face
I have used this sunscreen for several years. It is not greasy, it does not break out my face, and it provides excellent protection with no harsh chemicals. I started using it years ago when it was recommended by a plastic surgeon. I will continue to use this product in the future because it does protect against sun damage.
