I have been using this sukin spf for the last few months and I like it. It applys nicely and looks great. No typical heavy spf feeling or shine. It is a tinted spf which is nice so when applied it gives you a nice natural glow and it just evens out my skin nicely so I don't feel like I need a layer of foundation. It does apply nicely under foundation too. The shade I have is light - medium and it is on the darker side so if you did have very fair skin then it may be too dark. It does have a slight scent to it but I can't smell it when applying. It comes in a squeezy tube so it's easy to get the product out just shake well before hand. It is a physical suncreen not a chemical sunscreen so the active ingredient is zinc so no chemical absorbers which is great. I really do like this product and I will continue to use it, it's so easy to chuck on in the morning and you look a little more put together and fresh once applied due to the tint . Definitely recommend

Tips: It should be reapplied every 2 hours and I can confirm it does sit just as well on the skin after the 2nd or 3rd application as the first time it was applied that day.
Sadly not my favorite facial suncreen. I love Sukin and I have high expectations on this product and really wanted to love it. The texture feels like Maybelline's dream matte mousse foundation from the 2000's (admit it, you loved it too lol) but feels more gunky and gloopy. Also an odd smell but maybe because it is a natural product and has no fragrance but fragrance had never been an issue to me with other Sukin products and I have tried so many and loved them all. I did wonder if maybe I got a dud product or it's expired but I checked the expiry date and it's months before expiration. I had it exchanged, but it's the same thing. It feels and smells expired even though the expiry date stamp says it's OK, it's just how it is. Sorry Sukin! I hope you reformulate the gloppy texture and weird smell as it's very off-putting for me, and I'm usually a fan of natural and fragrance-free products. The matte texture is great and no white cast. Looks great but doesn't feel or smell nice at all.
Is it effective as a sunscreen? I have medium/olive skin that tans easily and I don't easily burn. I didn't burn or tan so I guess it does what it claims.
Tips: Use a tester before you buy. See if you don't mind the texture and smell.
Things I like: this product offers quite good coverage and is super moisturising. It goes on well and I love that it is reef friendly. It seems to be offering good sun protection. Things I don't like: it's a bit dark for my skin. I find it transfers quite easily. I'm worried that it isn't absorbing into my skin and therefore might not be offering full coverage.
It gives a nice glow and evens out my skin without layering the foundation on in summer, which I love BUT it smells, likely the natural product with no fragrance. Not sure how I feel about my face smelling...it does make my face feel super smooth and soft!
