I don’t appreciate the Tinosorb M in here which gives my skin a slight (slight) white cast (I don’t recommend to darker skin tones), and also it makes this slightly streaky at the hair line and I have to spend longer rubbing this in because of it. It’s lightweight and doesn’t make my skin feel too hot and clogged up. Overall Rating and Conclusion: 3.8 (nearly 3.9) / 5 – A totally fine Sunblock. The initial shine + creaminess of this product makes you think it wont dry down/absorb fully and will remain sticky/creamy, but it doesn’t. But I wouldn’t say this is un-wearably sticky. It doesn’t totally disappear into the skin and therefore works as a good makeup primer (the foundation can stick on quite well). Sticky?: This isn’t sticky BUT it has a slight tackiness when first applying this and letting it absorb for a few moments and settle. So I do think Lighter Skin tones would prefer this > Darker skin tones. Due to the Tinosorb M this has just a slight bit of chalkiness to it (from the physical side of this SPF filter) which you can see in the pictures down below. This feels lightweight (the skin can breathe). Texture: A smooth, silky texture (thanks to the inclusion of silicone).
