Farmacy

Green Defense Daily Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30

4 out of 5 stars.

White cast

Medium

A little bit goes a long way. It doesn’t have a strong smell and won’t leave your skin feeling greasy either, which I love having combo skin. All this said, it does leave somewhat of a white cast behind and for that reason I’m holding back on 5 stars. Otherwise, I’m a fan.

Green Defense Daily Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30

5 out of 5 stars.

Breakouts/Acne

Light

A little product goes a lot way, I have combo skin & sometimes products can irritate but this didn’t. It calmed down my acne and it makes my face feel nice

Farmacy

Green Defense Daily Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30

5 out of 5 stars.

Excessive Oiliness

Llight/Medium

As a person who doesn't really wear sunscreen, this has been a game-changer! I now wear this daily and its part of my skincare routine. I have combo skin, and most sunscreens I tried would feel oily/greasy and make my face look shiny. This sunscreen absorbs fully and leaves my face feeling smooth.

Farmacy

Green Defense Daily Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30

5 out of 5 stars.

Sensitivity

Medium/Tan

Doesn't cause breakout which is a big plus for sensitive skin, it might look white when you first put on the face, but it will be invisible after few minutes, it also works well with foundations, no white residues or whatsoever.

Farmacy

Green Defense Daily Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30

5 out of 5 stars.

White cast

Light

Finally! A mineral sunscreen that isn’t thick and leaves a white cast. Literally, everything makes me break out but I have had ZERO issues with this. Love everything about this product!

Farmacy

Green Defense Daily Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30

5 out of 5 stars.

White cast

Light

Finally! A sunscreen that doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin, doesn’t leave a white cast, and doesn’t turn my face into a greaseball. It’s a litttttle shiny after applying, but honestly I’ll take it. This is my new go-to daily sunscreen! Plus- it’s Reef-Safe :)

Farmacy

Green Defense Daily Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30

1 out of 5 stars.

White cast

Medium/Tan

I am very disappointed with this mineral sunscreen. It does leave a white cast on my face. I don’t recommend it for skin of color.

Farmacy

Green Defense Daily Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30

3 out of 5 stars.

White cast

Llight/Medium

I bought this thinking that it would not have any white cast, but it does on my skin tone, and a little heavy for my liking but it does the job, will not be repurchasing though

White cast

Fair

I have maturing, dry-normal skin with redness from tretinoin. I wear sunscreen every day, and haven't had issues with chemical ones though I like the idea of using something more gentle and mineral based. Zinc is a white mineral, so it's nearly impossible to not have white-cast with a zinc based product unless it's tinted....it's the fundamental physical properties of the ingredient. So yes, this lotion for sure leaves a white cast (even on my fair-pale skin), and because it's a physical barrier it also is heavier than chemical sunscreens BUT it is not nearly as heavy as some I've tried. It's also pleasantly moisturizing, but I think those with more oily skin might dislike it. MAKE SURE TO LET IT SET!! There is a dry-down change, but it took over 10mins for me to really see a difference, and I live in a moderately dry climate. I tried mixing it 50/50 with some foundation (how I often use foundations) and that helps with the white cast a bit, but that decreases the SPF of course. Haven't tested it in sun, but if I knew I was going to be outdoors in the sun for the day, I'd use something SPF 50 or higher. I wish they'd release a tinted version - light, med and dark tints, so it would eliminate the white cast and be inclusive.

Breakouts/Acne

Fair

I have never broken out using a product until now. This broke me out. Don’t use if you have acne. Should’ve checked CosDNA before purchasing, it had pore clogging ingredients

Breakouts/Acne

Fair

I wanted to love this because I love Farmacy and it has clean ingredients (unlike many SPFs), however, I found it to be chalky and drying and it made my face break out. I am not acne-prone and have never had acne issues. This not only made my face incredibly dry, but also I suddenly had a major breakout. Also, I'm pale, but it definitely still has a white cast. According to other reviewers, this is a new formula that's not as good, and while I haven't tried the original, I have to agree that this formula is not good and I'll be returning the product.
