My overall experience/comments on the product:
Frankly I really like that while this is a decently high SPF it doesn't feel heavy or sticky and it doesn't have that white casting that sunscreens can have. It makes a pretty good base for makeup although I was May 20th, 2020 (you can tell I was writing these blogs in advance, no?) years old when I found it that it was meant to be used as a primer - I've always paired other primers on top and that worked out just fine.
Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
