Derma-E Vitamin C Weightless Moisturizer SPF 45, 2 oz Moisturizer

Very disappointed in this product. First of all, you have to shake it before use, which is a pain, and odd for a moisturizers. But more importantly, I found it to be be thick, sticky and had a weird smell. It did not apply or spread well. I wanted a simple lightweight moisturizer with SPF but this is not that. I can't even return it because it bought it with a buy 2 get 1 free promotion so I'd have to return the free item as well, which i do want.

A little thicker and stickier than I expected. And the white casting is more opaque than I expected as well. I will need to go back to my other product instead of using this one.

It's ok

Love this product! I use it every day. Rubbing it for a few seconds to warm it up between my palms removes any chalkiness from the mineral sunscreen and it works amazingly well. I forgot to sunscreen my arms for a coffee date a few weeks ago and my arms and shoulders got a little pink but my face and neck were perfectly protected from applying this that morning, hours before!

I tried to love this because I love the Vitamin C Bi-Phase toner, but this did not rub/soak into my skin at all. I felt like I had a film on my face and had a white shower/cast all day. I even tried mixing a little of it with a regular moisturizer to see if that would help it soak in but it didn't. This felt more like a sunscreen than a moisturizer. I wouldn't recommend this product specifically.

This has not been very moisturizing on my skin at all. It leaves your face hilariously clown-paint white for the first 15 minutes or so. The sun protection seems pretty good and it does't smell as bad as most mineral sunscreens and I might be okay with it if it were marketed as a sunscreen, but it doesn't seem to do much at all as a moisturizer.

I do not know how well it works. If you apply too much, it produces a white mask on your face that requires blotting with a tissue. I gave it a rating of two, because I love Derma E products, and it could have been my application that produced the white mask or my completion. By blotting it off, I'm sure if I wiped off too much of the treatment to know its effectiveness. I like the SPF 45 in the cream, however it probably has a lot to do with the white residue.

Not a fan. Definitely feels like more of a sunscreen than a moisturizer. My skin is still very dry. It also makes your face clown-makeup white for the first 20 minutes or so before it soaks in. The sun protection is great though and it doesn't have quite as much of the awful sunscreen smell as a lot of mineral sunscreens have.

Eventually absorbs… but still makes you look like a white sheet. I like that it is zinc based, but this is the worst absorbing zinc sunscreen I've ever used, and it does not blend well with other lotions, makeup etc. it will leave streaks all over. I have used it a few times now in multiple different ways and will only leave this one for my work out in the yard when no one will see me.

I used to test her on the back of my hand before buying this and thought it provided a nice rich cast free finish. But maybe I had other lotion on my hand already or the lighting was odd. At home it is hard to apply to my face seeming to dry and stick instantly rather than spread and rub in. It leaves a significant white cast, cast. Really isn't as strong enough term. If I use very little and top it with a rich facial oil I can rub it in. So I've been trying not to let the money go to waste but I may toss it soon. Can't recommend at all.
