Might work but too much pilling and too little product
The amount of pilling is crazy especially when you consider that I tried exclusively pairing with Biossance products. Also, should mention I used to love the old formula- as just about everyone else has mentioned so I was excited when I saw they were offering sunscreen again. I wasn’t sure how it would go- purchased as part of a bundle and was disappointed. The product is subpar and the amount is almost insulting.

Amazing under foundation!
I’ve seen some people comment that the product gets pilly but what I noticed is once it’s on you can’t be rubbing it in anymore. It will them get pills. Otherwise it’s absolutely amazing as a primer! Goes on super smooth and isn’t noticeable at all by feel or otherwise. Highly recommend. Just put it on, smooth it in and leave it.

Terrible
This sun block does not rub in at all. It leaves small bits of white all over your skin and hands after you put it on.

Thick. Dry. White Cast.
This was disappointing. I have very sensitive, oily skin. It certainly passes the sensitive test but for it to dry out my skin to the point it becomes gritty & I’m almost pulling at my skin is really saying something. It’s suggested to apply liberally but it just makes it worse and leaves a terribly unattractive white cast to my medium-tone skin. Unfortunately, this product is part of my skincare trials and money eaten.

Bad pilling & drying Issue. BRING BACK THE OLD FORMULA PLEASE!
I'm a Licensed Esthetician who has an allergy to Titanium Dioxide. So when I found this sunscreen with Zinc Oxide only that was hydrating (I'm referring to the OLD formula), I had found the miracle sunscreen I had been searching for, for years. After the formula was changed, I'm now searching for yet, another Zinc Oxide only HYDRATING sunscreen because it's over drying my skin and causing me to breakout. PLEASE go back to the old formula or bring it back IN ADDITION to the new formula and market it as "dewy coverage" vs "matte coverage". You make incredible products (cleansers, facial oils, etc.) however, this one IS NOT a winner.

Please go back to the original formula and price
As others have said, the original formula was perfect. And the new tube size is ridiculously small. Why so greedy? Adding another unhappy customer about this product.

Ruined a good thing
When I received this, I was shocked that the product was now half the size. Not only that, but the new formula is trash and just keeps piling. This was the ONLY mineral sunscreen that worked on my skin tone. Now I will have to find another one. Very annoyed.

My favorite facial SPF
I loved the original version and I'm fine with the revision. Really my favorite SPF for my face. As others have mentioned, I'm really disappointed in the size of the new product. The original was 3.38 oz. and the new version is 1.7 oz. Also, it's very difficult to squeeze out the end of the tube. This is frustrating.

Good coverage, bad pilling issue
I'm not sure why there was a need to "revitalize" this sunscreen into a "better" version. While the texture feels nice on the skin, if you rub it in too much or long or add something on top of it (make up primer, etc.) it immediately starts to "pill" and leaves a bunch of white flakes on my face. Not a fan.

Decent sunscreen bad value
I used the old formula a lot and it was one of my favs. Something about it was giving people dermatitis so I get the reformulation. They upped the zinc in the newer stuff so it’s thicker and spreads less far but should protect more. The issue is that you’ll need to apply a good bit of it for proper coverage and sun protection. Low % physical spf just isn’t the product where a drop will do it. At the same time they stopped offering a jumbo size and increased the price on the smaller bottle. I like a lot of biossance stuff but with so few days of use I can’t recommend their sunscreen at this price.
