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

Pilgrim's Red Vine Vitamin C Face Cream sets itself apart by building vitamin C and rosehip oil into an SPF 30 daily sunscreen, with a PA+++ rating for UVA protection as well. The vegan, paraben free, sulfate free formula is aimed at people who want a bit of brightening and nourishing support layered into their sun protection step rather than a bare bones sunscreen.

At 1.76 ounces, the cream is sized for regular daily use, and Pilgrim positions it as part of an anti-aging routine, pairing SPF with ingredients meant to support the look of skin over time. It is a more budget friendly option than some of the vitamin C focused sunscreens in this category.

With 1,900 ratings and a 4.1 star average, it has a meaningful base of reviews, though the rating trails a bit behind other sunscreens in this list, and recent monthly purchase volume in this listing is low.

Pros

  • Combines SPF 30 with vitamin C and rosehip oil in one cream
  • Vegan, paraben free, and sulfate free formula
  • PA+++ rating adds UVA protection alongside SPF 30
  • Budget friendly compared to other vitamin C sunscreens
  • 1,900 ratings give a solid base of feedback to draw from

Cons

  • 4.1 star average is lower than most other sunscreens in this roundup
  • Low current monthly purchase volume in this listing
  • Skin type is listed simply as all, so those with more specific needs may want more formulation detail before buying

Performance notes

Vitamin C is included here to target the appearance of a brighter, more even complexion, while rosehip oil is often used to support hydration and nourishment. Paired with SPF 30 and a PA+++ UVA rating, the formula is built to combine daily sun protection with a bit of added skincare benefit rather than standing as a bare sunscreen alone.

What buyers say

A 4.1 star average across 1,900 ratings shows a decent sized group of buyers are satisfied, though the score sits a bit lower than several other options in this list, and the low recent purchase count suggests it is not currently a top seller.

Frequently asked questions

Does this cream brighten skin tone?

The vitamin C in the formula is included to target the appearance of a brighter, more even complexion over time, though results vary and it should not be treated as an instant fix.

Is this a mineral or chemical sunscreen?

The listing does not break down the specific SPF filter used, so shoppers who need a strictly mineral formula may want to look for a product that names zinc oxide or titanium dioxide directly.

How does this compare to other vitamin C sunscreens?

It offers a similar concept, pairing vitamin C with SPF, at a more accessible price point than many vitamin C focused sunscreens, though its 4.1 star average trails a bit behind some of the higher rated options in this roundup.
