I have sensitive skin with blemishes, scars, and dark spots, so I switched from chemical to mineral sunscreens. Among the mineral sunscreens I own, this one has the best absorption. I'm currently using Doc* Olga and Shu*phy mineral sunscreens, but Cellmax feels like it adheres thinly to the skin and has the most natural finish with minimal white cast among the three. Unlike the typical dryness or grittiness of mineral sunscreens, it applies smoothly like a hybrid sunscreen. I appreciate the gentle ingredients and the slim, no-frills design. It also works well as a makeup base. I usually wear semi-matte makeup, and it seems to maintain hydration without causing dryness. When worn alone without makeup, it gives a glowy appearance to the skin, though the thin texture means it may not last as long.
ConsGiven its thin texture, the staying power seems a bit lacking for a mineral sunscreen. Even when layered, it applies thinly without feeling like it's building up, so I use it for short outings rather than extended periods outdoors. The product's nozzle is a standard tube type, which makes it less convenient to apply directly to the face compared to an eye cream-style long nozzle. You need to clean the cap well to keep it tidy, which is a bit of a drawback.
TipWhile this product isn't particularly sensitive to skincare layering, it's important to adjust the amount and ensure proper absorption of your final moisturizer. Like most mineral sunscreens that can pill, this one adheres best and doesn't clump or pill when applied after your skincare has been fully absorbed.
