I bought this from the Space NK website (not the factor 30 but factor 50), it had mixed reviews but it was billed as good for sensitive skin.

OMG, it make my skin BURN. In the beginning it felt fine, non greasy and comfortable. Within 4-5 days I had small bumps on my face, then my whole face turned red and scaly, now I'm peeling.

NEVER EVER BUY THIS.

I've been using this for at least a month. I bought a big jug of it at Ulta. I purchased it based on the fact that it is made without a lot of the toxic ingredients found in drugstore brands, but the price is very reasonable.

It works very well and did not break me out, but the downside is that it's very sticky. Other reviewers have said that it aborbs in time, but I did not find this to be the case. In this dry winter weather, it does dry down to the point where it just leaves my skin looking hydrated. But in warmer weather, I felt like it never dried or absorbed.

My skin is normal and not prone to excessive shine; however, I used to have very oily skin and I know that I would not want this on my face if my skin tended toward shine. It's your typical heavy sunscreen consistency.

But with my dry-ish winter skin, I find it works great under makeup. Still, I'll be looking for something lighter and less sticky for my next sunscreen purchases.

I wish I could say more good things about this - but I just can't. Granted, there are several formulas, and I only tried one - the SPF 30 Face and Body - but I can definitely say I am completely underwhelmed. The product sinks in, but leaves my skin very shiny. I think the sun protection is decent, but I felt greasy. The big problem, though, was how my skin behaved over time. I went through 2 bottles, wanting to give it a decent chance, and I'm sorry I did. I broke out some, but the worst was that my face just looked congested all over, with larger than usual pores and a definite loss of glowiness, mostly because I then overcompensated by over cleansing!
Like I said - just not impressed. And the price is ridiculous. I went back to my usual Aveeno - half the price, twice the product, better performance.

I love SuperGoop! I couldn't find it in CVS so I bought one bottle cheap off Amazon for $17. I was reading about it in a magazine and I liked the name and I needed something like this for the summer. It works well. It's not greasy and it does the job. Check out the article:

I bought this product from the Space NK website thinking that it was sure to be a good quality product due to it's high price and the credibility of the store. I was very disappointed to find that first of all, the cream smelled unpleasant and second of all, the texture was not as light as promised in the product description. Much to my dissatisfaction, this SPF cream actually caused my skin to sting and has made the surface of the skin on my face flake - obviously an allergic reaction. I do not have particularly sensitive skin and have used all different SPF creams as moisturisers and never had a problem like this. This was a sale item, however, when I purchased it and I think this is probably why. Would not recommend this to anyone, even at it's sale price (original price £25)!

Its sticky, makes my face looks oily. I have to use makeup primer after using it. I like Peter Thomas Roth Uber Dry than this one :(

I like this product as a body sunscreen, primarily for myself and my kids at the beach. It goes on clear, isn't too thick, spreads easily, and is tenacious in water. I've found it protects us well from burning/tanning/pigmentation even on very hot and sunny days. I agree with other reviewers who feel it's not the best choice for the face because it is a little sticky/shiny (though since I don't care about that at the beach, I do use it on my face there). It does have a "sunscreeny" scent, but to my nose, it's quite faint and doesn't linger, so it doesn't bother me.


Another reviewer mentioned that this s/s has a low PPD. I'm not sure what the PPD is, but Supergoop does contain stabilized avobenzone, so I surmise it at least has a higher PPD than all-physical s/s. It is also free of the controversial ingredients oxybenzone and retinyl palmitate. In the US, it's extremely difficult to find a stabilized avo sunscreen without oxybenzone; the only other one I'm aware of is Coppertone Ultraguard spf 30. My guess is the two products are similar in terms of protection. Since I avoid oxybenzone, especially for my kids, I'm satisfied with this product and will repurchase.

Very similar to the Olay Complete SPF 30 (the non-sensitive version that has Avobenzone). When I wore this on my face, I shone like a disco ball and turned pink. Low PPD. Too expensive for what it is. I returned to Sephora and will not repurchase.

Just started using Supergoop! a few weeks ago and LOVE IT!! I personally love the lip balm, and the AM moisturizer. Its very easy to use, quickly absorbs into skin and i always feel protected for the sun. Living in Texas this sunscreen has saved me from several sunburns. I Highly recommend it for anyone and everyone!

Typical sunscreen, very heavy, strong sunscreen smell, leaves skin very oily. States for face & body, I wouldn't use it on my face, ick! If you want a typical sunscreen, buy a drugstore brand rather than spend $20+ on this!

Hate to bring down the ratings for this but this gave me a terrible rash. I do not have sensitive skin and rarely break out or get rashes from products I try. This gave me a very bumpy rash on the sides of my cheeks and on my neck. I'm pretty annoyed because my complexion was clear and now it may take a while to get these bumps to go away. This was the only new product I tried that day, so I know this was what did it.
That said, if I wasn't allergic to this, I would love it. It is light weight and dries completely invisible (not greasy, no white cast). it works really well under make up. There is no strong suncreen smell. there are no parabens, and the sunscreen is stable (though it doesn't provide super high UVA protection, it does provide some.)

I've been using this as one of my sunscreens for a couple of months now, and I really like it. It's not perfect, but close. I have acne prone skin that tends to be sensitive sometimes (I use retin a). This sunscreen doesn't cause me to breakout, sting my skin or cause irritation. It does not leave a white cast to my skin, and it shinks in nicely. I keep a couple of tubes on hand. One of the better, effective sunscreens I've used.

I've been using this product for about a week, but I didn't want to review it until I was able to give it a good test.

I originally bought this to use on my face everyday, and it's a great sunscreen to use. I bought the 3 oz airless tube lotion for $22. It does get absorbed quickly initially, but it needs about 10 mins to truly get mostly absorbed into the skin. Even though it's oil-free, it's still slightly greasy to me, but not enough that I'm adverse to using it on my oily skin. It is advertised as a moisturizing sunscreen so that could be partially why it has a slightly greasy feel on my face. It also has a sunscreen smell, in case anyone is bothered by that. In the time I've been using it, I haven't broken out. Also since it's a chemical-based sunscreen, it will not leave you with a white cast nor will it gather into the cracks & creases of your skin (i.e. inner elbows, where most physical sunscreens tend to buildup I've found).

The real test was when I used this during one of my trips to Disneyland recently. It was 90 degrees or so outside with no cloud coverage at all. I was at the park from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and reapplied the sunscreen twice. I came home with no burns whatsoever. Wonderful sunscreen, definitely worth trying out!

I would wear this everyday if it didn't make my skin so shiny. This is too heavy on my oily skin in the summer, but it's slightly better on my combination skin in the winter. There are equivalent drugstore SPFs.

Pros:
Water & sweat resistant, wears well under makeup, no white cast, antioxidants & SPF 30, good for sensitive skin, convenient packaging & price, doesn't break me out
Cons:
Takes time to absorb fully, can feel greasy on oily skin, makes my skin very shiny

This sunscreen is great and its rated 3 in safety in the cosmetic database. I used this during the aids walk and it lasted 3 hours for a sunny day. I didn't get sunburned. I wish i gave some to my friend who got sunburned using something else.

Was recommended Supergoop! by a Sephora associate. this is a good product and one of the better sunscreens i've tried. it goes on well and dries relatively fast. it has pretty good ingredients and UVA/UVB protection. the price is really great! i really like the squeeze tube its in because its really tight and secure but slender/flat shaped so it's easier to travel with compared to other SS. i wouldnt say this is the best SS on the market or its so good that there arent others that are comparable. but, it pretty good and the price is an extra draw. i would repurchase.

I have very sensitive skin and I read ingredient labels very closely so I was excited to find an SPF without all of the commonly used carcinogens. To boot, this product is very light in texture and quickly absorbs leaving no sticky or white residue. This sun protection is definitely a find! LOVE it!

I found the Supergoop Swipes at Nordstrom a couple of weeks ago and fell in LOVE with them. Have been using their lotion on our whole family (even our Nanny and my father-in-law!) and we think it is the greatest! Such a cool new way to keep sunscreen handy! I still make everyone wear the lotion, but the swipes are so convenient for touch ups!

Stumbled upon this lovely sunscreen the other day in Sephora. Only $12 for a travel tube so I thought I'd give it a go. Here's the deal:

What it does:
With a PA++ international rating for sun protection, Supergoop! SPF 30 is ideal for all skin types, 6 months of age and up. Through the use of Parsol 1789 (Avobenzone) and Parsol SLX, Supergoop! PLUS stays on the skin without any residue or heavy skin feel, has low irritation potential, and delivers superior performance.Vitamin E softens skin and provides a generous dose of antioxidants, working to protect the skin from further environmental damage.

Also contains no Parabens, Sulfates, Synthetic Fragrances, Synthetic Dyes, Petro-Chemicals, Phthalates or GMOs.

It absorbed well, left no white residue, didn't interfere with my makeup and NO BLEMISHES! Try it, girls, you won't be disappointed!
