Worth the 100% price increase? Not sure…
I loved the previous sunscreen and am really sad to see it go as the new version isn’t as good. It feels heavier on the skin and leaves a drier, somewhat chalky-ish texture behind. I’m also really disappointed in the 100% price increase for sunscreen noting that the price of the new 50ml bottle is the SAME as the previous 100ml bottle. I’ll be returning but honestly, even if I liked the new formula, I would have returned anyway bc it’s not worth the price given all the other clean sunscreen options on the market.

Awesome new formula
The new sunscreen formula is better! It has a creamy lotion texture and feels less oily than the prior formula. And while the new formula contains more zinc oxide for sun protection, it remains very easy to rub in clear on the skin. I am very impressed with the product, and the integrity of the company to only use quality ingredients that are not toxic to absorb! Thank you, Biossance!

Great SPF
I genuinly feel like I’m on the fence with this spf. I love the ingredients & that it brightens my face but leaves a white cast & peels a bit. I don’t hate it but I don’t love it. In my opinion its intentions are perfect but the formula needs to be perfected a bit more. For brow skin I’d recommend using another spf unless you want to look a couple shades lighter. Great under makeup which I am loving. You can see it brightens the face but I’d love that without the white cast. It’s a great indoor SPF & great under makeup.

Excellent
This sunscreen is great! It goes on smoothly and dries to a nice matte finish. I don't wear face makeup, so I can't speak to that, but it blends well and is, importantly, not greasy! Unlike other sunscreens, my face doesn't look like it was dipped in oil all day and my skin doesn't have that "something sticky is on my face" feeling. I have acne prone and sensitive skin and have had no breakouts or issues whatsoever.

New and Improved
I loved the original Biossance sunscreen, but the new formula is even better! The new version is very hydrating on my dry skin without being greasy or leaving a cast.

Sheer and luminous
I've been using the Biossance mineral sunscreen for at least a year now and have been madly in love. I switched to mineral sunscreen years ago during the pregnancy of my first child when I realized how dangerous chemical sunscreens really are. However everything I used left me pasty and sticky, and feeling oh-so-icky on hot days. But I stuck with it because it was better than exposing my baby and myself to harmful chemicals. I discovered Biossance last year and immediately fell in love with the entire line, including the sunscreen. When I learned the formula was changing this spring I immediately panicked! Not only do I use it everyday, but I also will occasionally apply it to my two children when their's isn't on hand. But the new formula doesn't disappoint! It's light and dreamy. It is weightless over my Biossance morning routine and unnoticeable under my make-up. I also love the sheer glow it gives my skin. On more laid back days I can easily just apply a little concealer here and there - the sunscreen has almost a diffusing affect and lasts for a while. My only request is that I wish there was a waterproof version for beach days!! :)

Wish I could love it
This sunscreen was perfect at first. I love that it dries matte and was essentially unscented. It is reef safe which is important to me. It felt moisturizing and not super chalky. However, after a few hours, the skin around my eyes (uppermost part of my cheekbones and also my brown bone) would start to sting. I tried it on several non consecutive days just to test it and it caused irritation and bumps each time. These cleared up after a day of disuse. Nothing else about my skincare routine was different. I was so hoping to love it but I have to pass on it.

Sensitive Skin Review
My sensitive skin loves this sunscreen! This sunscreen does not cause my skin to burn or breakout. It layers and blends perfectly with makeup. I also love that there is not a strong fragrance because I am super sensitive to fragrances as well. Another great product from Biossance!

Now has vitamin e
I LOOOVVVEEE Biossance skincare. I actually flocked to this particular product (in the past) due to the fact that it was mineral, barely had any white cast, and was free of vitamin e. I have a major sensitivity to vitamin e and this was the first sunscreen I found that had all 3 components I was looking for. However the new ingredients now lists tocopherol which I understand is great for almost everybody. But for people like me I’m saddened… Hopefully the old sunscreen I still have can last for a while but I’m definitely gonna have to find a new one now.
