But I was stubborn.

For starters, the options are endless.

Theres chemical SPF, mineral SPF, and reef-safe SPF, too.

Even as an editor with access to endless product, I didnt know where to begin.

I just knew what I didnt wanta formula that would leave me protected but ashy and gray.

After testing it out myself, I totally understood the hype.

The oil-free formula is in fact invisible, and stands up to its primer claims.

It plays well with my tinted moisturizer, and extends the wear by at least a few hours.

I also love the velvety feel and convenient squeeze-tube packaging.
