Max Mineral Tinted Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 45 UVA/UVB REPACK, 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)

PTR sunscreen has a nice fair but not pale tone with a very slight yellow undertone. It is also slightly radiant but not dewy. It doesn’t highlight my wrinkles as much as some other zinc oxide tinted sunscreens do, but it doesn’t hide them either like more matte, silicone based sunscreens do (Elta MD, Sunbum and MD Solar Science). I really like the smooth look, light glow and the tone of this make-up. I apply it with a wet sponge and it doesn’t look heavy, chalky or waxy at all. However I don’t apply the quarter teaspoon recommended, but I don’t usually stay in the sun for long. I wear it daily to work and it usually wears well unless I touch my face, which is what happened on the day one of the photos was taken. Contras: I have sensitive skin and I don’t know what genius came up with the idea to add vitamin C to sunscreens such as this one. On most days I’m okay but once in a while I look in the mirror after several hours of wear and I see a red spot on my face (allergic reaction) that shows through the make-up. I have to bring a concealer to work now. It also makes my eyes watery after I apply it under my eyes but that goes away after 10 minutes or so. Despite these things, I continue wearing it almost every day, because I love it. It looks better in person than on the photos and I often don’t want to take it off when I get home because, again, I love how it makes my skin look.

This spf is absolutely amazing. Doesn't dry your skin is creamy, light coverage and the zinc oxide prosentage is amazing. My forever broad spectrum spf!!

I switched to more natural sunscreen a long time ago. But I've hated it. I tried several but found myself skipping sunscreen often because I couldn't stand how they looked and felt on my face. Most of the mineral, EWG approved sunscreens caused breakouts as well (and I don't break out easily so there must be a specific ingredient that doesn't agree with my skin). This one may not be QUITE as "natural" as some of the others but I love it and it's way better than the non mineral alternatives. It goes on smooth, doesn't leave my skin greasy or pasty, makeup works with it, and the tint is just enough that I often skip adding extra makeup over that anyway. Plus zero breakouts after a few weeks of wearing it now. After several years of hating putting sunscreen on my face, I now don't even think twice about it. Very happy!

Not too heavy on the skin, lovely sheen without being greasy, non irritating.

This is the only sunblock that doesn’t irritate my skin. I used to use Clinique City Block, but that started irritating my skin horribly after using it daily for 13 years. I then spent years trying to find something that didn’t irritate my skin, or cause acne or rosacea. Had to be fragrance/essential oil free as well. Also wanted my skin to look nice. Nothing worked out for me did until I tried this. There are zero chemical sunscreen ingredients that can cause irritation (a lot of sunblocks that are marketed as mineral based still use chemical sunscreens, just not as the active ingredient, to get it to be sheer- this one does not!) Used to think this was too dark, but you can just add a little bit of any other white pure mineral sunblock to it to lighten it up. I’m sure you can add some spf foundation to it if you need to to be a little darker- just don’t dilute it with something that doesn’t contain SPF. Please don’t ever discontinue this! It was a nightmare trying to find a daily sunblock that doesn't have chemical sunscreen ingredients, clogs pores, irritates sensitive skin, and is fragrance/essiential oil free. Doesn’t make my skin look greasy and make my bangs look wet. It makes the texture of my skin look better. Doesn’t pill and make my skin look flakey. Lays beautifully under concealer. It’s perfection!!
