Manufacturer Contact Information 2010 Solihull Parkwy Birmingham Bus Park Birmingham B37 7Ys Review: Goodbye shiny face! - I bought this only on the basis of its promise that it would leave your face looking matte and not shiny as most other sun protection factor creams do. I am impressed. You can put as much or as little on as you like as this really does absorb instantly without leaving you shiny or indeed having that horrible gloopy feeling. Once applied, you can put make up on straight away without having to wait around until its absorbed. It has a nice fresh smell that doesn't smell too much of a suncare product. That smell is there just a little bit, but most of them do have this and maybe its just the effective ingredient in it that makes the smell. But it is not overpowering. Another good point is that it is eye friendly. For years I never put sun lotion directly underneath my eyes due to wearing contact lenses and the lotions just making my eyes sting all day. This product really is eye friendly. I can vouch for it. I had a scare with a mark under my eye that I got investigated. It turned out to be sun damage only, but it resembled something more sinister. I now realise I probably got the damage there due to years of not putting a sun lotion under my eyes. So I applied the nivea directly under the eye area and was waiting for my eyes to start stinging. Nothing. No sting at all. That was a major plus point for me. I wear this lotion now most days in place of my usual moisturiser due to its high protection factor and that its a really comfortable easy to wear lotion. Review: Favourite cheap SPF for combination skin & acne & olive undertone - Got it on a whim, but I now prefer it over the Beauty of Joseon cream one (and the Neutrogena City Shield one) Pros - has a tad of a yellow tin to it - great of olive skin / warm tones - does not leave white marks - sinks in quickly - spreads easily & easy to layer and to reapply - does not create a "porcelain" shade on my skin like Beauty of Joseon does - creates nice dewy/matte look - keeps shine in control throughout the day - putting it on and going in with a bit of pressed powder (Rimmel Stay Matte translucent) on my T-zone creates very natural look - it absorbs the skin oil in itself through the day to keep you from looking like a glazed donut - has not irritated my skin yet - has not broken me out yet - great to reapply as 2nd layer of sunscreen throughout the day (even on the top of another sunscreen) - it is spf 50 - its smell goes away after about an hour (I like the smell - it smells like 2024 version of the sunscreen used in 2000 lol) - gives a tiny tiny bit of a "snatched"/tight feeling to my skin which I like - feeling very confident while wearing it - make-up - so far so good but I don't apply it often enough in general to have enough valuable experience with that Cons - the label is a bit misleading - it does not create matte look on the skin - it can actually look a bit too shiny after application - it has the typical sunscreen smell to it - but better - but why does it need to have perfume in it at all?? - contains alcohol -> it evaporates quickly and helps with initial oil control, but may not be for dry skin Overall I will keep repurchasing it unless my skin develops reaction to it. IMPORTANT NOTE RE MATTIFYING: I think this is one of the product that is really good and accessible but many people will be disappointed by it and throw it in a bin. Reason being because they will expect a "matte" effect on their skin (the whole time while wearing it). The formulation of the product contains many ingredients that will absorb the excess oil from your skin into them - instead of just letting it shine through - which is what creates that "mattifying" effect. So you still may need to use powder and/or blot your face once or twice a day (if you have combination/oily skin). But this is the only sunscreen that has given me consistent mild dewy look throughout the whole day without the glazed donut look. So my skin actually looks "just normal". Not too dry, not too oily. I usually blot my face 2h after putting it on and then I am good until the end of the day (not the case with other sunscreens). P.S. if your sunscreen is pilling up - it may be your previous layers (I had to give up my hyaluronic acid); water vs. silicone based skin care; not enough drying time between layers; dragging your skin too much during application; not enough regular exfoliation of old skin; or dust & fibres on your face if you don't wash it in the morning. ## Features - HIGHLY EFFECTIVE: NIVEA sun cream protects healthy skin from the outside against UVA/UVB rays and from premature skin ageing and also protects on the inside thanks to a powerful natural antioxidant - DELICATE FACIAL SKIN: Light and non-greasy, the sunscreen SPF 50 formula offers an instant and long-lasting mattifying effect without leaving any sticky residue behind - NORMAL AND COMBINATION SKIN: The face sun cream is ideal for everyday use. Plus, the sun protection formula is ophthalmologically approved (eye-friendly). Skin compatibility dermatologically approved - HOW TO APPLY: Apply generously before sun exposure and reapply frequently, especially after swimming, perspiring or toweling. It comes in a 50ml tube - Great for home use or to take it on-the-go - OCEAN RESPECT FORMULA: 66% biodegradable and free of UV Filters Octinoxate, Oxybenzone, Octocrylene, as well as Microplastic. The tube and cap are made from 50% recycled plastic (without cap) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07BCTT9BS | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Benefits | SPF50, UVA/UVB protection, water resistant, refreshing, immediate absorption | | Best Sellers Rank | 666 in Beauty ( See Top 100 in Beauty ) 22 in Body Sunscreens | | Brand Name | Nivea Sun | | Country Of Origin | Germany | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 3,167 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04005900475220 | | Item Dimensions | 43 x 32 x 131 millimetres | | Item Form | Cream | | Item Type Name | UV Face Shine Control SPF 50 | | Item Volume | 50 Millilitres | | Item Weight | 50 Milligrams | | Item weight | 50 Milligrams | | Manufacturer | Beiersdorf | | Manufacturer Contact Information | 2010 Solihull Parkwy Birmingham Bus Park Birmingham B37 7Ys | | Manufacturer Part Number | 86007-04500-21 | | Material Features | Fragrance Free | | Material Type Free | Octinoxate Free, Oxybenzone Free, Octocrylene Free, Microplastic Free | | Model Number | 86007-04500-21 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of items | 1 | | Package Size Name | 50ml | | Product benefits | SPF50, UVA/UVB protection, water resistant, refreshing, immediate absorption | | Recommended Uses For Product | daily use and outdoor activities | | Scent | Unscented | | Scent Name | Unscented | | Skin Tone | All | | Skin Type | Dry | | Special Features | Shine Control | | Sun Protection Factor | 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF) | | Target Use Body Part | Face | | Unit Count | 1 count | | Unit count | 1 count | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Nivea Sun - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 43 x 32 x 131 millimetres - **Item volume:** 50 Millilitres - **Item weight:** 50 Milligrams - **Number of items:** 1 - **Product benefits:** SPF50, UVA/UVB protection, water resistant, refreshing, immediate absorption - **Scent:** Unscented - **Skin type:** Dry - **Sun Protection Factor:** 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF) - **Unit count:** 1 count ## Images ![NIVEA Sun UV Face Shine Control SPF 50 Cream (50ml), Sun Cream Protects Against UVA/UVB Rays and Premature Skin Ageing, Sunscreen for Delicate Facial Skin - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71+WP2GyJ9L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can i wear this cream under my makeup?** A: Yes I wear it under my makeup all the time! I find it's a really good base **Q: Hi. Can you use this on the eye area, as in on the under eye area and on the eye lids? Thanks** A: I have sensitive skin and am prone to eczema flare ups, and I can use this round my eyes no problem. **Q: Does it dry full matte? no shiny at all? you forget you're wearing sunscreen because it's matte and doesn't make you look dewy?** A: For me it dries full matte & my skin looks fresh but not dewy. My skin is oily & has a tendency towards spots but the cream suits me very well. **Q: Is it cruelty free ?** A: If you mean has it been tested on animals, there is no specific statement on the labelling to say that it hasn't been (eg as companies like Body Shop do) so best to assume it's not cruelty free. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Goodbye shiny face! *by D***2 on 16 June 2024* I bought this only on the basis of its promise that it would leave your face looking matte and not shiny as most other sun protection factor creams do.

First and foremost, the sunscreen offers a high level of sun protection with its SPF50 formula. When I was on holiday and living in a sunny climate, it's crucial for me to shield my skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays, and this product does an excellent job in that regard. I feel confident knowing that my skin is well-protected, even during extended periods of sun exposure. Another aspect that I appreciate about this product is its lightweight and non-greasy texture. It blends effortlessly into the skin, without leaving any residue or white cast. The formula feels comfortable on the skin. Additionally, it works well as a base for makeup, allowing for smooth application and long-lasting wear. Furthermore, the moisturizing properties of this sunscreen are worth mentioning. Despite its shine control abilities, it doesn't compromise on hydration. My skin feels nourished and moisturized throughout the day, without any dryness or tightness. It's a great multi-purpose product that saves me time and effort in my skincare routine. However, when it comes to shine control, I found the performance to be somewhat lacking. Throughout the day, I still experienced some oiliness on my skin, especially in my T-zone. It's worth noting that I have combination skin, so individuals with oilier skin types may have a different experience. The packaging of the NIVEA sunscreen also worth noting. The compact 50 ml tube is travel-friendly and easy to use, with a flip-top cap that ensures no product is wasted. It's convenient to carry around in my bag, making reapplication hassle-free. I highly recommend this product for daily use, as it has become an essential part of my skincare routine. ## Frequently Bought Together - NIVEA Sun UV Face Shine Control SPF 50 Cream (50ml), Sun Cream Protects Against UVA/UVB Rays and Premature Skin Ageing, Sunscreen for Delicate Facial Skin - NIVEA SUN Protect & Moisture Sun Spray SPF 50+ (200ml), Moisturising Suncream Spray with Vitamin C and Hyaluron, Immediate UVA/UVB Protection, Fast-Absorbing No White Cast Formula - NIVEA SUN Protect & Moisture Sun Lotion SPF 50+ (200 ml), Suncream with Vitamin C and Hyaluron, Provides 48H Moisture and Immediate UVA/UVB Protection, Fast-Absorbing, No White Cast Formula --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sc/products/66378785-nivea-sun-uv-face-shine-control-spf-50-cream-50ml](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/66378785-nivea-sun-uv-face-shine-control-spf-50-cream-50ml) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-05-11*
