CALM Barrier Protect Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30, 2 Oz | Face Sunscreen for Sensitive, Rosacea-Prone & Eczema-Prone Skin, UVA/UVB Protection, Fragrance-Free

Make favorite mineral sunscreen ever! Easy to apply, very light cast but it goes away. This is one of those that you can reaply every two hours and it feels doable. The others feel chunky and I don't even want tot try re-applying.

I am currently on a medication that makes my face extremely dry and this helped not just keep hydration to the face, but also calm redness. So many of my products were triggering perioral dermatitis on my face and this is one of the few SPFs that help helps with that and with acne. I can rarely ever find this SPF in store anywhere so this is my go to to purchase it when I need it.

This sunscreen 1) Doesn’t make my skin shiny like I dipped my face in margarine- I know some folks love the “glow” look - but that’s not for me - this looks like skin 2) Doesn’t make my skin look dry, flaky and dull or accentuate my dry patches by making them look extra white and noticeable 3) Doesn’t aggravate my skin or break me out 4) Doesn’t smell 5) Doesn’t make my concealer pill or look like paste 6) Doesn’t make me look like a ghost 7) Doesn’t take forever to rub in It’s a bit pricey, but for a physical sunscreen, it’s in the Goldilocks zone for my pale, dry, sensitive winter skin. I apply over basic moisturizer like Cetaphil. For comparison: Vanicream is less pricey but takes wayyyy longer to rub in and is shinier. Elta MD Clear is more expensive, absorbs super fast with no initial white cast, but leaves me dry with white flakes by day’s end. It

Best mineral sunscreen that I wear every day! I rarely reapply and even with fair skin, I'm keeping sun off my face. I'm afraid they are discontinuing it because they don't have it on the Paula's choice website... I'll keep buying it here until it's gone but I don't know what other brand makes a mineral sunscreen that is this effective and doesn't make your skin white.

This is well worth it it really does help

Have already repurchased for a second time!!! Love the finish and feel of this product. As a brown person, I struggle with finding a mineral sunscreen that doesn't make me look like a ghost. This one works perfect for my needs, I just wish it had more SPF. Will continue to use!

Do not buy if you have a octocrylene sensitivity. This is NOT a mineral sunscreen. This contains ethylhexyl methoxycrylene as the 4th ingredient. This chemical is an O-methyl substituted version of octocrylene, which I learned after having a reaction to this product.

I didn't want to give it just one star because I'm sure this spf will work for a lot of people. The formula doesn't feel super heavy and the whitecast isn't horrible. It has calming ingredients and washes off easily. However it did give me an itchy rash after two uses and flared my rosacea. So unfortunately it just isn't for me. I will say I have spent hundreds of dollars on sunscreen and all of them do the same, so my skin is HIGHLY intolerant and I probably have ingredient allergies that I'm unaware of. Just sad I spend $40 only to end up with a rash. :(
