One of the worst facial sunscreens. Incredible oiliness on the face. And as for the scent, it smells okay at first. After a while, however, it becomes unbearable. It leaves a feeling like greasy oil. It's not even suitable for the beach. There are other excellent sunscreens available.
I got it as a trial because it was recommended to me, but it didn't suit my face. The positives are that it smells wonderful, it is lightweight, and it spreads easily without personally needing to reapply it throughout the day, my face doesn't burn nor have I developed freckles, sunspots, etc. (although I am fair-skinned). However, the big negative is that after a while, the skin starts to become so oily that even if you blot it with a tissue, your face will still secrete oil afterwards. I wouldn't buy it again.
The nicest sunscreen I have ever used. It spreads easily, has a wonderful scent, and absorbs without leaving a greasy feeling. I would buy it again and again.
It leaves incredible oiliness on the face. I used to apply it in the morning under my makeup, which I would set with a powder that absorbs oiliness (because my skin is a bit oily), and within 2 hours my face looked like I had applied oil to it.
I borrowed it three times from a friend of mine and every time the next day my face was full of tiny pimples with pus. Clearly, it's not suitable for my face. It is heavy, greasy, and does not absorb easily.
The best facial sunscreen I have ever used. It absorbs incredibly quickly, feels like applying a perfect moisturizer rather than a sunscreen. Smells amazing!!
I have left a very positive review on the same tinted cream, hydra fresh tinted, which I have thoroughly enjoyed! Unfortunately, this specific one, as much as I wanted to like it, leaves me with excessive greasiness to the point of intolerance! I wanted to wash it off within an hour, I couldn't stand it that much. And my skin is normal to slightly combination! I do not recommend it at all.. It's going to the beach and I will go back to the all-time classic LRP uv mune400 fluid.
Well,
The fragrance is okay.
It spreads well.
The color is perfect.
BUT I SEE IT SITTING ON THE PORES in the magnifying mirror.
MAYBE IT'S THE MOISTURIZER'S FAULT.
I WILL TRY ANOTHER COMBINATION.
IT DOESN'T STING AT ALL AND IT'S a bit greasy BUT I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM.
I WILL COME BACK
In my own skin (combination to oily), it worked very well. It moisturizes and at the same time leaves a nice glow. Nice scent and perfect texture. I have used it several times and I will definitely choose it again.
It is a very good facial sunscreen, but greasy. It protects from the sun. Of course, it needs reapplication. You cannot wear it and sit in the sun for 5 hours without reapplying... of course, you will get burned. But I think it does a very good job with wrinkles. It is also quite lightweight, spreads easily, and does not stick. And it does not leave any white residue or flakes. It leaves a slight shine, but that's because it keeps the skin moisturized. However, this may not be very tolerable for oily skin. I have dry to combination skin and I'm okay with it. I would buy it again.
UPDATE: Actually, it is quite greasy. I would recommend it for dry and dehydrated skin because it also works as a moisturizer. Personally, since I want to use it for everyday regardless of going to the beach, it definitely needs powder on top. And compared to a similar facial sunscreen from another major brand that leaves a matte finish, I would not repurchase it. Especially if you have oily skin, I believe it will feel too heavy. Otherwise, it is okay as a facial protection and moisturization, but I deduct one star because it feels heavy and leaves a shine.
From the sunscreens I have tried, this is the only one that keeps the skin moisturized for a long time. I bought it because I read positive reviews about its protection and I have been very satisfied with the result. Also, the makeup goes on perfectly. Since I tried it, I haven't bought any other sunscreen.
Good sunscreen with a very high UVA protection factor. At least in the version I got, it doesn't have a fragrance, but it smells like a classic beach sunscreen. It's perfect for the beach, but not for winter/city use, as it can make combination/oily skin look shiny (because it's a moisturizing substitute for moisturizer). Also, it doesn't sting the eyes and doesn't leave a white cast.
I have been using it for the past month, it has a light texture, spreads very easily, does not leave any white residue on the face, and most importantly, it does not sting the eyes at all. It leaves a slight shine at first, but it is not bothersome, it is quite tolerable. I would buy it again.
Nice fragrance, there is protection, it spreads very easily, but for me with normal skin it is greasy. The shine is there, but it is borderline (not like some others that you say are only for the beach). For the last two reasons, I will probably choose another one next time.
I am 55 years old, I do not use makeup products and I have normal skin without any particular issues. With the face cream I use in the morning and this specific sunscreen, I am fine. It leaves a slight shine because I apply a lot of cream and a lot of sunscreen. I let the products absorb for a few minutes and then I put a tissue on my face to remove the excess product (and the shine as well). This particular sunscreen is light and fluid, it has a pleasant scent and moisturizes without weighing down my face. If I were younger, I might not even use moisturizer or use less quantity. For now, I don't think I will experiment with other face sunscreens because this one covers me well and has a good price.
I bought it because I have fair skin with freckles and every summer from March to October I smother myself in sunscreen and hide under a hat in the shade like a vampire. Until now, I was using the regular one which is supposed to have a lighter texture. I don't understand it. This one is lighter and more easily absorbed and has anti-aging properties! It doesn't leave a noticeable shine. It goes without saying that I will be buying this from now on.
+ It is both a sunscreen and a face cream 2 in 1.
+ It smells neutral, it doesn't remind you that you're wearing sunscreen.
+ It spreads very easily, it doesn't leave any greasiness or annoying white residue.
+ I can easily apply it around my eyes and it doesn't sting at all, unlike frezyderm which is painful!
+ It leaves my face with a nice glow, neither fully matte nor oily.
+ I used it after a laser treatment on my face that requires serious sun protection, and it protected the "damage" from sun exposure perfectly.
I was skeptical before purchasing it, as I always am when a product is discontinued and I have to buy the new version. Since I can't afford to make changes at the moment, I asked for samples.
My skin is now combination (as it changes as we grow - sometimes even our minds) but it remains sensitive and reactive.
Texture: I was satisfied with its texture. It spreads easily and absorbs quickly, without leaving any greasiness.
Color: It's pure white, which suits me better now that fine lines have appeared on my forehead. The previous cream with a subtle color made them appear slightly more pronounced.
Scent: It's fine, my sense of smell doesn't complain, nor does my rhinitis.
Hydration: Yes, and I don't need to use a moisturizer before applying the sunscreen.
Anti-aging: No cream works miracles (only "youth" does). They all offer something in this area, some less and some more.
Allergies, breakouts, etc.: It didn't cause any for me. Fortunately, that's my biggest fear when trying a new product.
Effectiveness: I didn't have the joy of going to the beach and basking in the sun in the summer of 2021, so I don't have an opinion. It worked fine in the city.
The product has changed its packaging and composition. Now it is more oily, shiny, pores are erased, and it looks like you have applied sunscreen, while before it was more matte, spread better, and covered like a light make-up.
Wonderful cream, much better than the previous one in the same series.
It spreads easily, it is incredibly moisturizing (ideal for older ages!) and dries quickly.
The feeling of greasiness mentioned in the comments lasts for 2-3 minutes, then it is absorbed by the skin.
If you want a sunscreen cream that is also an anti-aging product and an ally against wrinkles, I highly recommend it.
(If you have oily skin, it is generally good to use gel creams)
Light moisturizing sunscreen that spreads easily and doesn't stick, but leaves a lot of greasiness on the skin. You may not mind the shine or have dry skin, at worst it can be powdered. The scent is unacceptable, it reminds me of Depon syrup and even two hours after application, I still smell like synthetic fruits.
Terrible. It leaves an incredible greasiness and shines as if you have applied oil. I wouldn't even use it as a moisturizer. And my skin is not oily or acne-prone. What a shame. The scent is nice though. Other sunscreens from Apivita are worth it.
