While this sunscreen has a beautiful lightweight texture that leaves your skin velvety smooth, the ingredients are both questionable and misleading:
- The official site claims it contains hyaluronic acid, but if you review the ingredients, it's nowhere to be found.
- Contains essential oils high up on the ingredient list, one which is potentially phototoxic. Yet this is a product marketed for sensitive skin?

PROS: It is lightweight, non-greasy, and does not leave a white cast. Overall, it is comfortable on the skin in any season, especially during hot and humid summer.
CONS: It has a strong rose scent (but some people likes it).
