CeraVeHydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 with Sheer Tint, Tinted Mineral Sunscreen with Zinc Oxide & Titanium Dioxide, Blends Seamlessly For Healthy Glow, Light, 1.7 Oz

Nice alternative to Korean or chemical-based sunscreens, and the tint smooths out skintone. No chalky white look. Subtle enough to be used by Men.This is a mineral-based SPF 30 sunblock without harmful chemical sunscreens that turn sunlight's UV rays into infrared heat that cooks the skin, creating cancer [so ironic!].FYI: Hence the rising 'skin' cancer rates DESPITE so much Sunscreen use these days. People used to use Baby Oil at the beach, which was not good, either.Feom what I learned,Skin cancer is actually diet-based & in the rancid stored refined fats & various 'bad' toxins (such as copper in the fungicides used by Big Ag & clothes co's) stored by the body in the fats & oils just below the constantly renewing skin, IF the liver-filter doesnt know how to safely get rid of them. Lack of anti-oxidants (such as a LOT of daily Whole Food Vit C complex, not plain ascorbic acid, unless in IV form) causes the wrinkles and sun damage. Humans (& primates) have a weird genetic defect where we do not make Vit C in our liver (like almost all other mammals), and often do not get enough every day. A deficiency can cause thin weak skin, fatigue, & eventually scurvy (easy bleeding, loosened teeth). It is ignored by Western-trained Doctors until it gets bad and requires ($$$) hospitalization and/or treatment.Hence the importantance of good 'clean' diet, keeping a strong immune system, avoiding synthetic chemicals, and not burning, so as to prevent signs of aging and certain cancers. Hence the millions of years of use of sunblocks like zinc & other minerals (mud!), fur or long hair, loose long clothes with a hood, trees, roofs, caves, and a healthy natural diet by all mammals & humans.This sunblock has little smell to it, a nice cream makeup-like texture, and Light, Medium, or Dark(ish) tint, and fairly good 'coverage'. Medium was perfect for blending my 'natural beige' slightly tanned (for the natural Vit D that prevents cancer!) Caucasian skin tone, scars, spots, and a spattering of what used to be cute Irish freckles when I was younger, into a smooth skin tone on my face, arms, and parts of my legs, without looking chalky or drying the skin, like some concealers or 24 hr makeups w/sunscreen.I put it on my always-exposed face & upper chest, sometimes the back of my hands, then elsewhere as needed. I keep a light tan so I do not burn, which as we all know, damages the skin. Sun exposure is necessary for optimal health, and blood Vit D level >40 (in winter) is a biomarker for getting adequate full-spectrum sun (per large Norweigan studies).The CereV lasts as long as regular dept. store quality cream-based make-up, BUT costs a lot less IF you have a standard light, medium, or medium-dark tan skin color, dry, normal, or combo skin type, and are of the 80% with a neutral or golden-yellow undertone.Not sure how it would match up with a rosy-red or olive undertone, or breakout -prone oily skin, but probably would be better than most sunscreens, since zinc is very good for the skin and the immune system.The 'Dark' tint will be chalky on very dark brown-black skin.Hope this helps you!

40+ going through perimenopause here! I used to have combo skin, but now I need more hydration. My skin seems to be more on the dry side now. I’m also trying to use less heavy foundation. This stuff is great! Nice light coverage for a tinted sunscreen. It goes on like butter and makes me look awake. It does look shiny but not in a bad way. Careful using too much. A little goes a long way. I tried colorescience but it’s not worth the hefty price tag. This one is better!

I have pretty sensitive skin, so I was extra cautious when picking out a sunscreen. I’ve had issues in the past with some formulas feeling too heavy or leaving that stubborn white cast that never quite blends in. I also didn’t want anything that would clog my pores or make me feel greasy halfway through the day. I already use a few other products from this brand and they’ve worked well for me, so I figured I’d give this one a try.I’m really glad I did. The texture is lightweight and absorbs quickly without sitting on top of my skin. It gives a bit of a glow—but doesn’t look oily or greasy. The tint surprised me in a good way. It’s very subtle but just enough to even out my skin tone a little, which is nice on days I’m not wearing makeup. I’ve used it under light foundation and on its own, and in both cases it wears comfortably throughout the day.I didn’t have any irritation or breakouts from it, and that’s saying something with how reactive my skin can be. I also appreciate that it’s mineral-based, especially with zinc oxide, since I’ve found that works better for me than chemical sunscreens. It feels like it adds a layer of protection without being suffocating. I’ve been using it daily and will definitely repurchase.

This moisturizer is incredibly lightweight and boasts the perfect tint, making it an ideal choice for daily use. It effortlessly glides onto your skin, leaving your face feeling soft, supple, and with a beautiful dewy finish. Its gentle formula ensures that your skin remains hydrated throughout the day, enhancing your natural glow without feeling heavy or greasy.I will be purchasing this product again and will recommend to my family and friends.

I was looking for a no makeup makeup look and this fit the bill for me.I just started hating the way foundations looked on me.Im not huge into long makeup routines, and I always live somewhere beachy and humid so I decided to give this a shot since all of my other skincare is cerave.Im happy I did, I use a small amount and a foundation brush and it gives me the perfect amount of coverage.I will say it does give a dewy effect so if that's not for you then maybe you'd need a matte power or something but personally I dont mind.I love this product and I will keep buying it.

I like this product enough that I buy it a couple of times a year, but don't use it every day or all year-round. It's wonderful for going to the beach, where I layer it on top of other chemical sunscreens. It stays on in water and really does keep the sun off. It's excellent for swimming laps. It's perfect for coverage after RF micro needling and the like. The medium tone works in summer; it's a shade darker than I usually use, but I've never seen a lighter color here so I work with it.But outside those purposes, I don't wear this sunscreen. It's just too greasy for my already oily skin. It rubs off on everything and is generally messy. The tube is very messy. So while it's a summer mainstay, especially if I'm going to be in the sun for quite a while, it's not a holy-grail never-need-another-product product.

I am not a foundation girl. I hate how heavy it feels on my face. This surprised me because a lot of products like this are very oily and will crease/rub off easy but not this one. It goes on very smooth and once you set it with powder, you're good to go. You can even get away with just applying this and cream or liquid blush if you like a more glowy look!
