    Non-greasy, moisturizing, no white cast!

    I have sensitive, combination skin, with an oily T-zone and dry cheeks. I use a centella and niacinamide serum underneath, and I apply this as my last step, but I think this would do nicely under make up as well if you prefer to do that. It seems to have a pink-peach tone to it that fades to vivid when rubbed into the skin, and it does not leave a white cast. It has a remarkably slight SPF scent to it, but it goes away. I have neutral brown complexion, so not warm nor cool, AND I have allergies to SO many skincare products. This is light and non-greasy, and a scarce minutes of drying leaves the skin moisturized and pretty dry to the touch. I clip my bangs up during that time and when I let them down and style them, they don't get greasy the rest of the day. Not sticky at all once it has dried down, so would definitely listen to the 15 minute recommendation before going out. Finally, I have found the SPF I need! It also does not pill when I apply it, so it plays adequately with my other products.

    Favorite Sunscreen

    At first I truly disliked this sunscreen since I have pretty oily skin and it appeared quite heavy so I only applied it if I was going to gym in the morning since it's so moisturizing & I didn't mind the glow if I was sweating. Fast forward a month later I go on accutane and thoroughly changed my opinion on this sunscreen. My whole accutane journey I've been using all prequel products like the gleanser, half/half & the hand wrap was the only thing that cured my contact dermatitis that had formed when I wore latex gloves with powder for my chemistry class. I assume it's the glow from the sunscreen & have told tell all about it. Prequel has become my preferred manufacturer. Could not advocate it sufficient. Hopefully it still functions for me after accutane especially since of the mineral formula & the PA +++ Reverse to the sunscreen, I am now on my final month of accutane & everyone at my 9:30 hit gym class have been asking me about my skin & how glowy it seems.

    Not sticky, greasy, or smelly! Great mineral sunscreen!

    This is an amazing mineral sunscreen! It doesn't feel heavy. It doesn't smell weird. Prequel is nailing it! The cost is also so much more affordable than other mineral face sunscreens. Light, not hefty and sticky. It is a bit luminous, as stated in the description, but I don't find it to be anything too wild or glittery. It's not tinted (like rubbing peanut butter on your face). It's actually incredible! I wear it under makeup and it seems excellent.
