First off, it doesn't cause any eye irritation, which is a sensitive issue for me. I absolutely can't use products that sting my eyes - they make my eyes crusty, constantly irritated, bloodshot, and ruin my whole day. I'd rather use a mineral sunscreen that whitens my skin a bit than deal with eye irritation. Plus, this one is hydrating. Unlike other mineral sunscreens that can be drying, this one keeps my skin moisturized. While it's marketed as a brightening moisturizer, it doesn't provide a natural-looking glow. Instead, it's just like those white mineral sunscreens that leave a pale cast on your skin. It also applies unevenly, emphasizes pores, and settles into fine lines - it's a mess. You can't use this alone; you need to apply it under cushion foundation. Even then, as your makeup breaks down throughout the day, the flaws of this sunscreen become more noticeable. I wouldn't recommend it for summer or winter. It's absolutely not suitable to use on its own - after all, who doesn't have some pores or fine lines? You'll need to apply cushion foundation or other makeup over this product. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinNov 23, 2019
Kiehl's is still the only sunscreen I've found that doesn't sting at all, even if it gets in your eyes After using the basic product, I tried the brightening moisturizer line for the first time, but the white cast is so severe that I can't apply it generously - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinSep 1, 2019
The only positive is that despite ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate being high up in the ingredient list, it didn't cause any eye irritation. No matter how much you rub it in, there's an intense white cast that just won't go away. You might reduce the white cast slightly by applying tiny amounts, but it's impossible to use the recommended amount for proper sun protection. Even if you apply a small amount, spread it for ages with your hands, and then pat it with a sponge, the white cast is still extremely noticeable. While it doesn't pill when you apply makeup over it, as time passes, an excessive amount of oil comes through, leaving your skin looking greasy and shiny. I'm not a fan of brightening moisturizers to begin with, but this one is truly disappointing. Even if you typically enjoy brightening products, I'd recommend choosing something else. This doesn't give you a radiant complexion - it just makes you look pale.
