This is Paula's Choice's first foray into making sunscreens with more innovative filters and I did not have a great time with this. There is a cast to this, it's not terrible but it's not great. It's a thick cream that's SO heavy and greasy and shiny. No eye sting though, thank god. But I think this is only suited for lighter skin tones who have dry skin.
