UV Shield SPF 45

product review positives

This is my current holy grail physical sunscreen. It has a bit of a cast on me but it doesn't bother me at all since it sits very nicely on the skin. It doesn't sting my eyes and never pills.

product review negatives

No other bad experience except for cosmetic elegance when wearing outdoors on a hot, humid climate. This is not water resistant so you will immediately just sweat it off right away and rest assured you are going to have a lot of white streaks, which ...

UV Shield SPF 45

product review positives

So while this is a mineral sunscreen, this does not have the usual drawbacks of products with zinc oxide. No white cast and it is very lightweight so it is easily rubbed in. Even when layered, there is no cumulative thick feeling or film or cast on t...

product review negatives

I wish the nozzle was finer so that it is easier to do the 2-3 finger length application. It comes out in dollops, so you need to adjust your control and how you squeeze out the sunscreen.

UV Shield SPF 45

product review positives

It’s oil free so it doesn’t sit on your face, it actually blends into your skin and when it dries it feels like nothing. No whitecast whatsoever and is great for oily skin because sunscreen can make your face look greasy. Fortunately, it is the compl...

product review negatives

Nothing is bad about this product. It’s a big bottle so it will last you. The only thing is the price which is more on the expensive side but is definitely worth the money.
