Farmacy
Green Defense Daily Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30
5 out of 5 stars.
Sensitivity
Fair/Light
Great mineral sunscreen! I am allergic to all chemical sunscreens (anything with Active chemicals) but this one doesn’t break me out at all! Definitely recommend if you are also sensitive to sunscreen. It does go on fairly white, but I think it blends nicely and I am also a very pale lady so it doesn’t bother me too much.

Enlarged Pores
Light
I absolutely love this sunscreen. It doesn't clog my Enlarged Pores, leave me greasy, or leave a white cast. Plus it has clean ingredients. I am a fan, it was really hard for me to find a clean sunscreen I liked. It wears really well under makeup. **This isn't waterproof so it's great for every day but not at the beach**
Farmacy
Green Defense Daily Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30
4 out of 5 stars.
Excessive Oiliness
Fair/Light
I actually use this as a primer; it dries to a matte finish and operates as a better primer for my combination/oily t-zone skin than most products marketed for the purpose. Its qualities as sunscreen alone are decent—it works, though I do feel there is an initial white cast but couldn’t say for how it absorbs into deeper skin tones. It WILL sweat right off in heat and humidity when worn alone. SPF 30 is a little low on the protective scale for my preference so I do tend to layer it with an SPF moisturizer or foundation/bb cream. Once this runs out I do think I’ll repurchase it for its priming usefulness—I notice quite a difference in my oil production throughout the day.

White cast
Fair
I adore this sunscreen! On me, the white cast fades in seconds and my skin is left protected without feeling greasy.

I am a light skinned Black woman and this product leaves a *terrible* white cast on me, but due to sensitivities to chemical sunscreens, I will continue to purchase and use this item. Sucks, but I need SPF.

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.

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.
