Purchased this as it was highly recommended. It's unlike any other sunscreen I've used in that it has no noticable sunscreen odor, just a pleasant scent. It isn't totally whitening or extremely thick and in fact goes on more like a moisturizer than a sunscreen. it leaves a bit of shine but I just let is set for about 15 minutes before I put on any makeup. At the end of the day my face still looks pretty good for lathering on the sunscreen. I use a serum and eye cream underneath, sometimes a bit of added moisture as my skin is dry. It seems to work well as I haven't gotten tan (yes, I do have a bit of color). Would definately purchase again, wish this was available locally.
