So I like this, but two caveats. 1) It's EXPENSIVE and 2) it stung my eyes. (always a personal thing). I mean, I wouldn't pay $65 for an SPF 30 but that's just me. It's also a touch heavy so this would replace a moisturizer in my opinion. It does have some nice moisturizing ingredients as well as some ingredients to soothe the skin and fight dark spots, but overall this is just a fine product for me.
