CeraVe Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 with Hyaluronic Acid, 2.5oz | Face Sunscreen with Zinc Oxide, Titanium Dioxide, Hyaluronic Acid, & Niacinamide For Broad Spectrum Protection

Great product. Does not melt into eyes as day goes, wears very comfortable and leaves face looking nice after wear. Of course leaves face a little white while wearing.

I like this sunscreen and it's my #2 go-to. The only reason it's #2 instead of #1 is because it's hard to get off my hands and when I touch my face I transfer that color to whatever I touch next. The color is nice on my face and I use it on days I don't wear makeup. It wears well under make up though. I find that after I apply it, I have to wash my hands twice with soap, and then still have to scrub the color off with a towel. This has stained my white towels. And the important part - yes it has good sun protection.

It goes on a little thick, definitely feels like sunscreen, and sometimes gives me white in my eyebrows, but that's where the faults end. It does hydrate my skin and I notice a big difference in the redness/sun damage to my face when I use it. Lasts for quite a few hours and gives me all the protection I need. Can easily wear with my makeup. Doesn't irritate my skin at all. Doesn't have an overpowering smell or texture. I like this product. Very little whitecast.

When it comes to sunscreen, the market is saturated with options claiming to deliver sun protection with a side of skincare. But does CeraVe’s 100% Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 deliver more than just promises? Let’s dive into this travel-sized powerhouse that’s redefining the way we think about sun care. Packaging and Portability: The Travel Companion You Deserve At 2.5 oz, this sunscreen is perfectly sized for life on the go—whether you’re jet-setting across continents or heading to the gym. Its sleek design ensures it won’t take up unnecessary space in your bag, while the screw-top cap prevents any dreaded sunscreen explosions. Travel-size convenience meets full-size efficacy. Formulation: Science in a Tube CeraVe isn’t just a skincare brand—it’s a science lab bottled up for your face. This sunscreen combines zinc oxide (10%) and titanium dioxide (5.5%), offering broad-spectrum UV protection that blocks both UVA (aging rays) and UVB (burning rays). But what truly sets it apart is the marriage of sun defense with a lineup of dermatologist-approved skincare superstars: 1. Hyaluronic Acid: Keeps your skin hydrated and plump, battling the dryness mineral sunscreens can sometimes cause. 2. Niacinamide: Calms redness, minimizes pores, and gives your skin that smooth, even finish. 3. Ceramides: These unsung heroes repair and reinforce your skin barrier, ensuring you don’t just survive under the sun but thrive. Texture and Application: A Lesson in Patience Unlike chemical sunscreens that vanish instantly, this mineral formula takes its time. Upon application, you’ll notice a slight white cast—a badge of authenticity that proves its mineral origins. The trick is to warm the sunscreen between your fingers and apply it in layers, like building a skincare masterpiece. The result? A velvety matte finish that doubles as a primer under makeup. Oil-Free but Full of Love If your skin tends to produce enough oil to fry an egg, CeraVe’s oil-free formulation is your saving grace. It sits lightly, doesn’t clog pores, and won’t trigger breakouts—a godsend for sensitive and acne-prone skin. Performance: Under the Sun and Beyond From scorching beach days to winter hikes, this sunscreen holds its ground. It doesn’t sweat off or melt into oblivion, and its water-resistant formula lasts through most outdoor adventures (though you should always reapply every two hours). Unlike many mineral sunscreens that feel heavy, this one breathes, making it suitable for all seasons. The Good, the Great, and the Room for Growth The Good: The blend of UV protection and skincare ingredients feels like you’re doing your skin a favor with every application. The Great: Its versatility—it’s gentle enough for kids, safe for the most sensitive skin, and an ideal first step for skincare minimalists. Room for Growth: The initial white cast might deter those with deeper skin tones, but with proper blending, it eventually dissipates. Final Thoughts: More Than Just Sunscreen CeraVe 100% Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 isn’t just a sunscreen—it’s a daily commitment to protecting your skin while improving its health. It’s the rare product that understands that skincare is about balance: protecting what’s outside and nurturing what’s within. Whether you’re a sunscreen skeptic or a devotee, this zinc-and-titanium duo deserves a permanent spot in your routine. In a world where skincare can often feel overwhelming, CeraVe brings us back to basics—with an edge.

Rubs on white, and very difficult to rub the white away. Probably very good protection from the sun, but leaves a white residue

Safe for pregnant women

Hands down... worse product I've purchased in a very long time. Ladies, let me save you time and a return. This sunscreen is a disappointment. Think of acrylic paint thats drying and you are trying to blend it on your skin... It doesn't blend well at all. Leaves a white cast and has a tacky feel that just sits on your skin. My skin prior to application was well moisturized, easy base for an spf. Horrible product.

My skin is not sensitive but my eyes are very sensitive to anything with a strong scent, hence usual sunblock often burns my eyes. This is amazing, light weight, does not burn my eyes at all, no strong scent. HOWEVER gives an obvious white cast! My coworkers automatically noticed and asked if I was wearing sunblock. This is not problematic if you use a little foundation, but I don't often wear makeup so.... keep that in mind

No hidrata nada. Al revés se siente rara la cara Lo bueno es que el zinc oxide y titanium dioxide son los únicos protectores que está comprobado no dañan en cambio los demás todavía se están haciendo estudios Si protege bien pero no me gusta nada como deja la piel : blanca densa y le quita su efecto glowy Perdón pero reseñas engañosas No mal gasten su dinero

Non lascia quella sensazione di appiccicoso che danno di solito gli spf, noin sudi due secondi dopo perché non traspira, minerale quindi meglio rispetto al chimico, leggermente colorato quindi anche se abbronzati non schiarisce la pelle e non lascia il segno biancastro che di solito gli spf lasciano

Yes, I know mineral sunscreens have a tendency to leave a white cast, but this is just too much. Tacky and hard to spread, unless you're prepared to really scrape and tug at your skin. Even then it doesn't blend in, but pills and looks like semi-dried school glue. I won't even begin to imagine what it's like under makeup. I'd have given it one star but added another just because presumably it IS still doing its job as sunscreen.
