CeraVe 100% Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 with Zinc Oxide & Titanium Dioxide, Hyaluronic Acid & Ceramides, Oil Free & Non-Greasy, Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen For Body, 5 oz

The media could not be loaded. At first I was a little skeptical about the product because everyone seemed to dislike the quite obvious white cast, but had decided to try it because I like the formulation and I needed a sunscreen badly!When I first tried it, I found that it was difficult to spread because of how thick and concentrated it is, and yes, it leaves quite a white cast this way...and my skin is pretty white. I also did notice that it made me break out on my arms where I mainly used it...I was just about ready to give up on this sunscreen until...bum bum bummmmmm.If you take a dab of the product on one hand, then take the other hand and run your fingertips through water so they are a little damp, not drenched, then massage the lotion together with both hands first, and then apply to your body...you will find that it is a LOOOOT easier this way; it helps the ingredients dissolve a bit better, it spreads better, it has noticeably less white cast, and you can layer it on like this. I actually feel better coverage overall, and you can visibly see an actual sheen reflecting off light, as is how these mineral sunscreens are supposed to work. Try it before you give it up.

I’ve got really sensitive skin, and this sunscreen gives me long-lasting protection. I like sunscreens with more zinc minerals because I don’t have to reapply them as often, and they’re better for my skin. This product has everything I need. It does leave a bit of a white cast, but a little goes a long way, and it’s easier to blend in with some rubbing.

Good sun protection cream. I never use this high of SPF normally, but with age, have been feeling my skin become more sensitive to long periods in the sun. Thought this was not bad for the price point, especially for this brand, CeraVe, which I found recently for moisturizers and really like. I will say that it is not super easy to put on, and it is visible as a white film/layer on the skin, especially if you have a darker skin tone. Otherwise, it does the job of protecting my skin under high heat well. No issues yet!

Non greasy yes but not moisturizing either. It looks like a thin white paste layered on top of your skin. It's not hard to blend in but it never blends all the way in. It definitely has a white cast. It looks ghostly. Embarrassing. I haven't used it on my face so I don't know if causes breakouts or stinging of the eyes. I didn't experience any discomfort or rash just an aggravating white cast that looks smeary. I made the mistake of wearing a black blouse for an out of town meeting and it kept rubbing off on my shirt. It wouldn't wipe off so I had to deal with these white smears and streaks all over my top and my ghostly white arms. Said I would never wear it again. A week later, I decided to put it on my legs because I was doing yard work, thought I'd give it a try again, smeary white ghostly legs, oh well I'm home no one can see me. Later that day before bed, I noticed my legs again and thought wow they're still covered with white gunk. I had to rub really hard with a wet cloth to get it off and the cloth was covered in what looked like white clown makeup. I thought that's it! I hate this sunscreen. I'm never wearing it again! I just ordered some banana boat. I've used that for years. I just wanted something maybe more environment and skin friendly. This was a waste of money that I can't return because I didn't try it right away and the return window even though I still have almost a full tube. I just assumed it was good because it's Cerave.

Excelente producto!

Leaves a HORRIBLE white cast and is hard to rub in. Love that it’s a clean product though

Best sunscreen for the face. Is lightweight. Small enough to put in your purse. I highly recommend anyone with melasma use zinc.

I use and love Cerave's facial cleanser and body lotion for extra dry skin and thought I'd give their sunscreen a try. I know it's a common issue with sunscreens to leave a white cast, the darker the skin the more likely it is. That being said, I may not be red-headed vampire pale but I'm not too far off. I rarely pay attention to the part of reviews for sunscreen about leaving a white cast because it has never been an issue in my 35 years. This is the first sunscreen to be so thick with a weird texture, that it leaves a noticeable white cast on my pale skin, no matter how much I rub it in. That's hard to do. I can't even say much for how much sun protection it provides because the texture and cast makes me not want to use it.If you don't mind the feel or cast then it may be just fine. There are too many sunscreens out there, however, for me to continue using this one. It gets two stars instead of one because it didn't really irritate my skin, and I'm not certain about sun protection. But with all the sunscreens in the sea, I'd recommend fishing elsewhere. Look to Cerve for other skin care.
