The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other women's everyday face care: moisturizers, face mists, facial kits, rollers, cleansing brushes and steamers we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
This lotion is unscented, water resistant and oil free, and it's built for all skin types rather than targeting one specific concern. That straightforward formula makes it an easy, no fuss pick for anyone who wants a basic sunscreen without added fragrance.
Each bottle holds 6 fluid ounces, a larger size than most of the smaller travel style tubes in this category, which suits its dual use as both a face and body sunscreen.
With a 4.6 star average and a price under $14, early reviewers seem pleased, though the total number of ratings is much smaller than more established competitors, and current bought_last_month activity is low.
Pros
- Unscented formula suits those sensitive to fragrance
- Oil free, which can help those prone to breakouts
- Works for both face and body in a single 6 ounce bottle
- 4.6 star average among its reviewers
- Affordable price under $14
Cons
- Only 112 ratings, a much smaller sample size than most other picks here
- No current monthly purchase activity reported
- Fewer disclosed ingredients or benefits compared to more detailed listings
Performance notes
Being labeled oil free and unscented makes this a straightforward, low fuss option, though the listing does not break down specific active UV filter ingredients, so shoppers who want that detail may want to check the packaging directly.
What buyers say
A 4.6 star average is strong, but with only 112 ratings on record, it's a much smaller sample than most other sunscreens in this comparison, so it's worth weighing that limited data against the otherwise positive score.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use this sunscreen on my whole body, not just my face?
Yes, it's labeled as a Face and Body Sunscreen Lotion, so the 6 fluid ounce bottle is meant to cover more ground than a face only formula.
Is this a good option for oily or acne prone skin?
It's labeled oil free, which is a helpful trait for those who want to avoid a heavier, pore clogging feel from their sunscreen.
Why does this have fewer reviews than other sunscreens on this list?
It appears to be a less widely reviewed listing, so while its 4.6 star average is encouraging, it's based on a smaller group of shoppers than some of the more established brands here.
