“I've tried a few SPF's from PC before but this one is my absolute favourite. It gives such an amazing dewy glow, not greasy like some SPFs. It doesn't have much of a smell which I like, it really sits well on the skin and doesn't pill if you add a foundation over the top. Despite the initial colour as it comes out the tube it leaves no white cast, although I'm fairer skin and this may not be the case for darker skin tones.”

“This sunscreen is indeed moisturising and does leave a nice glow, as well as blurs imperfections. There is no cast on my pale skin and no eye stinging. A bit pricey though.”

“This is my second purchase of this. Excellent value and 1-step daily moisturiser and mineral SPF with blue light protection too. Light smell which is fairly pleasant and absorbs pretty quick for a mineral product. I’ve tried loads and this is the best I’ve found.”

“I'd rate this moisturiser 4.5/5 in most other categories, but when it comes to leaving a white-cast, this product is a no go. I have medium-dark skin, and putting this on leaves me looking casket ready. It's okay if I am wearing makeup, it sits quite well underneath my foundation. However, if I wanted to go the day barefaced, the white cast is VERY noticeable.”

Thank you for taking the time to review our products. We are sorry to hear it leaves a white cast on your skin. Only a pea size amount is needed, if too much is applied it can leave residue on top of the skin. Someone from our customer care team will be in touch. With love, Skincity.

“I'm picky, I need cruelty free, non-comodegenic products (I check every ingredient!) and avoid avoid chemical options as they're bad for the environment. Previous sunscreens always break me out. I can see it potentially leaving a greyish tint, but this isn't an issue for me as I've pale skin, I just blend it in well. I think this is the same effect from all oxide sunscreens though, it's a physical block. It's a really matte finish, fab! but it does seem to leave my nose a little dry at the end of the day, but I just use my favourite oil to counteract this. Will definitely buy again, very happy to have found it.”
