Avène Mineral Sunscreen Multi-Defense Fluid SPF 50+ - Tinted Sunscreen, 100% Mineral UVA/UVB Filter Sunscreen, Face SPF Tinted, Water Resistant, No White Residue, Fragrance Free for Sensitive Skin

This is a really nice option if you’re looking for a gentle, physical sunscreen. It has a watery formula, which can make application a little tricky at first, but it absorbs well and feels very lightweight once it’s on. It’s alcohol- and fragrance-free, which is super important to me since I’m sensitive to a lot of formulas and ingredients. Plus, it doesn’t sting my eyes at all — a huge win. While it does leave a slight white cast on facial hair, it’s much better than most physical sunscreens I’ve tried. It also has some great skin-beneficial ingredients like niacinamide, allantoin, vitamin E, and bisabolol, which help soothe and support the skin barrier. If you prefer to avoid chemical sunscreens or are sensitive to stinging, I would definitely recommend this. It’s a great choice for anyone with sensitive skin!

I purchased this for my very sensitive facial skin. It doesn't cause any irritation and it has no bothersome fragrance as many sunscreens do. I think it is a good choice for sun sensitive skin or for those who will be out i the sun and want to protect their skin. At 50 SPF, it is very protective.

This is a mineral based sunscreen and is highly rated. It does not have a lot of additional additives, very pure. Effective protection. It is a bit more expensive but seems to go a long way.

I love this face lotion, especially for the hot summers where the sun just agitates my face. But I don’t like how pale it makes my face. A couple of people have pointed out as to why I was so pale and it’s all because of face lotion… I love it, but would be moving with tinted from now on…

I’ve been using this sunscreen for a few weeks now and I’m absolutely loving it. As a sensitive, acne prone skin girlie I have gone through so many sunscreens that were either way too heavy and caused irritation, or felt okay on my skin but were slowly contributing to my clogged pores. This sunscreen takes the cake! It’s lightweight and absorbs really well even on top of moisturizer. It leaves a very small white cast at first but once it absorbs that white cast disappears. I love that it’s mineral based and doesn’t have any chemical UV filters (which are not even recognized as safe OR effective). Would definitely recommend to anyone with sensitive or acne prone skin.

This lotion is very sticky and feels very heavy. I love their non SPF face lotion so much and I wanted to love this but I can’t stand it on my skin.

Great

Once upon a time, I had an Avene sunscreen. It was gentle, effective, left no white caste, and was virtually free of fragrance. But the Evil Queen of Cosmetic Reformulations grew jealous that young women so loved a product that kept their skin fair. She devised a scheme that every few years, a new formula would grow in the place of an old beloved one. Her minions worked tirelessly on this dark alchemy. You never knew when it was coming: what would they add in, what would they remove? Then the Evil Queen expanded her empire from the delightful province of France, known for its gentle skincare, into the dog-eat-dog world of America, known for pouring industrial waste into its toothpastes. And then ... well, the excrement really hit the oscillator. Everybody got confused. Suddenly, there were 2+ inferior products taking the place of a once single, superior one. And I've tried them all and they made me cry, and they left my skin looking pale - and I'm not actually tryin' to be Snow White here, folks. And this one? It made my nose run and my eyes red; and while it may have protected me from the sun's harsh rays, it made it no fun to go out at all looking like an irritated, allergic, ghostly mess! Raise your hand if you want to grab your pitchforks and put down the Evil Queen of cosmetic reformulations once and for all!
