This is the best SPF product I've ever had. I have brown skin and unlike others that make you look grey, this one doesn't. It is lightweight and feels smooth when on. It doesn't roll up into little balls if clay like others I have used. Just perfect, highly recommend it 5*

No, I don't recommend this
I bought this as I wanted an effective, daily spf. The product texture, perfume etc was pleasant, however I had an allergic reaction to the product, resulting in a rash and swelling of my face.

A lightweight, easy to wear day cream with a good level of SPF; perfect when I want to wear a little make up but need sun protection. The cream rubs in well without any hint of stickiness even on hot days. It’s exactly what I wanted and it smells great too.

Silky Soft
Originally posted on ESPA
Lovely brightening SPF moisturiser, absorbs quickly without leaving white residue. Have tried the clairns one which has similar brightening properties but my preference is this one as it feels just like a lovely moisturiser but with the benefit of SPF50.

New go-to
Originally posted on ESPA
I've found the one! It absorbs really fast and most importantly, sinks into the skin with no white cast, which is always something I struggle with! It's been a heavy and hot summer so far so I really appreciate the lightweight texture, and good moisturizing/nourishing performance - especially since I usually rely on much heavier textures to counteract my natural dry skin. Definitely my new favourite!

Great SPF
Originally posted on ESPA
It’s a really great SPF. It’s really light on the skin and feels like you’re wearing a normal moisturizer! Highly recommend if you don’t like the thick/heavy SPF creams that are usually available at other brands.

Fantastic product

Fantastic product. You can now wear sunscreen without feeling like you are wearing sunscreen. Lovely light texture which goes on perfectly over your moisturiser. Soft texture and appealing scent.

Light and silky
Originally posted on ESPA
Silky spf which glides on to the skin. Doesn't pill when another product is layered on top which is fab. Will definitely be reordering.

Glowing and Protected
Originally posted on ESPA
I’m in love with this SPF! The texture is so lightweight and non-greasy and it absorbs beautifully into my skin. It gives my complexion a healthy glow and sits perfectly under makeup. I also love that it’s packed with skin-loving ingredients, so I feel like I’m getting both protection and skincare in one step. A definite must-have in my daily routine! Highly recommend.
