Reviews

Matte Protection You’ll Actually Love

"I’ve been really enjoying the IMAGE Skincare DAILY PREVENTION Sheer Matte Moisturizer SPF 30. It gives the perfect lightweight hydration while keeping my skin protected throughout the day. The matte finish is a huge plus—it helps control shine without drying my skin out. It layers beautifully under makeup and doesn’t feel heavy, making it an easy everyday essential for both skincare and sun protection!"

Olga (5/5)

This is a great facial

"This is a great facial sunscreen. It doesn’t look oily on my face but provides ample hydration. I used the sheer matte spf 32 from years ago and loved it. This newer version works well and helps me protect my face from the sun."

Ashley A. (5/5)

Great product

"This is great for summer! Doesn’t cause any breakouts for my skin"

Michele G. (5/5)

"Feels nice and matte after application and i like the addition of the light tint"

Jennifer (5/5)

Matte is a must for me!

"I loved the prior matte 30 sunscreen, which was not tinted, and was disappointed when it changed. Before trying this one, I tried the spf 50 (non-matte) and it makes my skin uncomfortably oily from the time of application until I clean it off. I have to admit that I really like this version now that I've given it some time. It's hydrating without being oily or heavy, it goes on really nice and even, feels lightweight after soaking in, and the tint doesn't seem to transfer much. I live in CO so it's important to be able to don hats without leaving a bunch of color behind. I also used the primer with spf and was sad that it was discontinued."

Hilary (4/5)

Great product, but I do

"Great product, but I do not like the tint. The previous non-tint seemed to have better sun protection as well."

Max F. (5/5)

Best spf cream

"Hands down best spf moisturizer for keeping oiliness and shine under control giving your skin beautiful glow."

Anastasia U. (5/5)

a very good sunscreen

"I bought this sunscreen thru beatypass website, I was skeptical at first due to many negative reviews here. I have oily asian skin tone. The 1st time I applied on my skin, I was woww, it was thick tuxture but spread out easily and I like the neutral tint. The tint blend well with my asian skin tone, not too dark not too light. It does not feel heavy or oily during the day at all, instead it gave me a glow. I re-applied once during the day and still not heavy feeling. I never use the original version so I cannot compare. But I know I really like this formula and this is my daily sunscreen now."

tram l. (5/5)

Improved!

"I like this sunscreen MUCH better than the old one! Much easier to apply make-up over it. Thank you!"

Tami B. (5/5)

Is the moisturizer in the building with us?

"This is NOT moisturizing. It is thick and almost chalky feeling when trying to rub in. The new reformulation is not it. It’s made my skin SO DRY."
