It was sent to me for free and I have used it a few times now during days out in the sun — it’s perfect for what I’d want in a facial sunscreen, feels like there’s nothing there. I do wish, however, that some of the ingredients were more eco friendly....I LOVE SPF that doesn’t feel like a sunscreen. This one does the job and feels good underneath makeup!
