So glad it's back!! The best unscented daily sunscreen
The previous version of this sunscreen is what first brought me to Biossance (because of EWG), and I've been hoping & praying it would be back. It's been hard to find a replacement. I love that it's completely unscented, feels so light on the skin (not sticky or drying), and it plays nice under makeup. The new version has has slightly more Zinc Oxide, but it still disappears into the skin quickly. I'm so excited that my fave is back!

Glowy Skin
It leaves my face glowy! I have sensitive and dry skin. Also, I have sensitive eyes however, It does not irritate my eyes. It has a light consistency and although at first it leaves a slight white cast, it goes away after applying it thoroughly. I love the formula better than the previous one. Even my husband used it while he was playing volleyball and he truly loved it! I received the newly formulated product in exchange for my honest review. I would highly recommend this sunscreen to anyone looking for a mineral sunscreen with so many great ingredients.

It blends right in!
This sunscreen doe snot have the chalky look of so many zinc sunscreens. It seemed to protect my face well on a sunny day and it left my face feeling moisturized. I would have given it five stars if it had been water resistant -- but I will use it on days I am not planning to swim.

So glad Biossance brought this back!
I am so, so happy this is back! I have combination skin which is extremely reactive and sensitive to just about anything. This new version, like the old one, is one of very few sunscreens I can use to keep my skin calm. I love this new version because I haven't experienced any redness/rosacea flare ups with it. It goes like a dream under makeup and my skin feels primed and moisturized. Zero white cast! My husband loves this for his outdoor runs because it goes on clear, and doesn't make his eyes sting like the chemical sunscreens.

New formula
I’ve been using this sunscreen for a few years and have always loved it. The new formula is a bit thicker but blends in beautifully and leaves my skin feeling moisturized and protected. I am going to love this new formula.

Holy Grail Sunscreen: Biossance Squalane + Zinc Sheer Mineral Sunscreen (5/5 stars)
This sunscreen is a dream come true! As someone who struggles to find sunscreens that are lightweight, hydrating, and don't break me out, this one ticks all the boxes. Here's what I love about it: Lightweight and invisible: It feels like a moisturizer going on, not a greasy sunscreen. It blends in perfectly and leaves no white cast, making it great for all skin tones. Hydrating: No more dry, flaky skin from sunscreen! This formula is super moisturizing and leaves my skin feeling soft and dewy. Non-comedogenic: Hallelujah! I haven't experienced a single breakout since I started using this sunscreen. Multitasking: It acts as a moisturizer, sunscreen, and primer all in one. This saves me time in the morning and reduces the number of products I need on my face. Here are some other benefits that I've noticed: Great for makeup wear: My makeup applies smoothly on top and doesn't pill throughout the day. Protects from more than just UV rays: It also shields my skin from pollution and blue light damage, which is a major plus. Brightens skin tone: My skin looks visibly brighter since I've been using this sunscreen. Overall, I can't recommend the Biossance Squalane + Zinc Sheer Mineral Sunscreen enough. It's a fantastic option for anyone looking for a lightweight, hydrating, and non-comedogenic sunscreen.

Like the old, but a little thicker
I just got this, and it’s really similar to the old one (thank goodness because I loved the old one). I do love a good spf that doesn’t break me out, and this one fits the bill!

Effective Sun Protection with a Matte Finish
I've been using this sunscreen every day, and the new formula has definitely caught my attention. Compared to the old formula, the new one is thicker and provides a more matte finish. While the old formula had a nice sheen to it, the matte look of the new formula is great for daily wear, especially under makeup. One significant upgrade is the increase in Zinc Oxide content. The new formula boasts 17.68% Zinc Oxide, a significant jump from the old formula's 14% Zinc Oxide. This higher concentration ensures better protection against harmful UV rays, making it a reliable choice for daily sun protection.

must have to skincare routine
Thank you BIOSSANCE for releasing a new mineral SPF, it was hard trying to find another replacement. New formula has been great so far. Great texture, it is non greasy and leaves no white cast. Love that it is weightless and blends seamlessly. This should be a must have product for those who need spf as part of their skincare routine!

Biossance sunscreen
I am enjoying the new formula of this sunscreen. I like that it’s thicker and not as runny as the previous one, but still blends in and doesn’t leave a white cast on my skin. It feels light on my skin.
