The tint is definitely very fair so I’m not sure how it would look on darker skin tones but my guess is it would turn transparent. Also, the lotion has no scent which is really nice for day to day application...My skin felt hydrated and doesn’t make me feel dry like some other sunscreens do. The scent is neutral and so faint, which is great since I prefer to smell like my perfume.

What it is: A pearlescent and lightweight body sunscreen that visibly illuminates all skin tones with an island glow.
