Sports BB Cream - SPF 50+

Loved it when it went on but it oxidized within half an hour. Smells nice.

this gives me dull yellow skin. you have to wait forever after the skincare products totally dry to apply this. Or your face sheds flakes insanely.

Size is so smaller than I expected Color is perfect matching with my skin for me

Excellent SPORTS BB Sunblock

This is a great ACTIVE BB sunblock. It stays put through sweat when on the beach, running, hiking, etc. and the protection lasts. It's more of a suncreen first, BB cream second so it's very watery in texture: you need to make sure your face is clean and ideally, fresh out of the shower to get it on properly. This is true of all sunscreens: most of the reviews I see bashing "white cast" and cakey sunscreens are due to user error, not the formulas. For instance, my husband, who does not exfoliate etc. and puts sunblock on dry, looks like a mime sometimes ;D

daughter approved! love it!

I have been trying to find something like this and waalaa!!!!! this is the stuff!! it has perfect coverage! color is beautiful! and to top it off, my daughter loves it too! and she is not easy to please, especially when it comes to makeup!! she is a glamour queen. big score, win, win!

My daily go-to foundation: SPF 60, lightweight, great coverage. Cant ask for more!

Aces!

This product delivers on its promises. I wore this product on my skin over my normal moisturizer for 12+ hours in the summer sun while sailing and sweating. It doesn't budge. It protects skin and looks flawless! it is quick to dry and is pretty solid medium coverage so if you want lighter coverage I'd recommend adding to face oil or moisturizer before applying. I use it that way from time to time also (usually in the winter when sun exposure is less and dryness is high!) The only drawback is that its tougher than most products to remove at the end of the day - it's that water and sweatproof! I use a bit more fash wash that I would normally when I'm wearing this product. I do have acne-prone skin - it doesn't aggravate that though.

I’ve been using this product for more than a year, I’m very satisfied and I will be buying it again. It’s great coverage, it’s stay put nicely and it has a matte/natural finish on my fair-light combination skin. I do give 4/5 because there is only 3 shades available which is a real issue and the mildly annoying sunscreen smell.

Must Have for a Day Outdoors

This is my go to for days when I know I’ll be spending in the sun (ie beach, pool, etc). It’s great coverage, so you don’t need extra foundation or powder, and great protection from the sun w/ an spf of 50!

lifesaver

I have lupus which means I need daily high spf and I often need to hide bad rashes on my face. This has been a lifesaver for me for the past year. Super easy to apply, hides redness even without concealer and it’s much easier to blend than foundation. Plus gives me the spf I need. I hope this never gets discontinued. I use translucent powder to set and the compact version for reapplication during the day.

a little disappointed

I didn't like the formula. I found it very sticky. I also didn't like how it felt on my skin. love everything that it stands for though. I really tried to give it a chance but after 1 year of inconsistent use I had to put it in the trash.

feels heavy

First of all, I love Shiseido as a brand, I think their non-tinted SPFs can offer pretty good protection. I have a fair-light neutral skin tone in foundations I usually purchase. The Light shade for this product runs SUPER pink and is not light enough for my complexion. If you are applying liberally for sun protection, it also feels very heavy, maybe due to being water resistant? In addition, Octinoxate 4.9% is a UVB filter, Titanium Dioxide 15.0% mostly filters UVB as well with minimal UVA protection. I would suggest using a full spectrum sunblock instead. UVA filters I usually look for are avobenzone (chemical SPF) and zinc oxide (mineral SPF). If you're looking at Asian sunblocks that aren't US FDA approved there's also other ingredients you might want to research. Shiseido products are also fragranced - doesn't bother my skin but I know it could bother others.
