I'm so glad this product is back! I have extremely pale skin and struggle to find a face sunscreen that gives enough protection - regular body sunscreen is horrible on the face! The Zinc content creates a barrier and I've never burnt (indeed barely caught the sun at all!) whilst using this and it seems somewhat sweat-resistant, even on the nose - and I've tested it in 40 degree heat in Malta too! As some other reviewers have said, it can have a whitening effect, as it's a zinc-based sunscreen. I overcome this by using sparingly (a little goes a very long way) and working it in well. If I still feel like I look a bit pale, I just pop on some tinted moisturiser to compensate! On that note, it's also a great primer for makeup!

This is so rich & lovely...It keeps my face hydrated all day & protected from the sun. I have fair skin & I spend everyday outdoors as a postie & this has kept my skin protected from the sun’s rays! It’s a god send!!! 

I’ve used and loved Neals Yard projects for such a long time but unfortunately I’m hugely disappointed with this. It really blocked my pores and I can feel it on my skin all day. It leaves a white layer and dries my skin. It does smell lovely but that’s the only good thing. Definitely not worth the money!

Given as a recent birthday present. so disappointed. thick. drying and not moisturising at all. makes skin white! And makes my eyes sting! there is nothing to like about this product. I love Neal's Yard but something wrong here

I'm a huge Neal's Yard fan - and this hasn't put me off buying their products, but I am disappointed by this cream. I was hoping to find a moisturiser which incorporated the SPF qualities. However, this cream has a funny smell and is very thick to apply. It left my skin feeling heavy and dry. I've decided to keep the moisturiser and SPF separate going forward

Hello would like to find out if a 6 month old baby use this

So disappointed with this product, hated how it was so white on my face and that I could feel it all day, didn't realise it would be like this, should've read the reviews! Have given the product to my friend who has drier skin than me, it went straight into her arms. I would never have used it

This product has several major issues. Firstly, the essential oil content is really high: if you have sensitive skin forget about it. It will sting you and feel uncomfortable. Second: the white cast is rather ghastly. It also doesn't seem to absorb properly and you'll be left with tacky skin all day long.Third: it just doesn't wash off very easily. Good luck getting this off. Even after towelling it off my skin and using soap a 'film' persisted on top of my skin and so did the smell of sunscreen. It is just not pleasant and I wouldn't recommend. Look out for other mineral sunscreens out there. I know NY has been trying to get a good formula for sunscreen for several years. Doesn't seem they are there yet unfortunately. Eagerly awaiting the reformulation of this product or a good sunscreen alternative

I use a lot of NYR products and love them all but this SPF moisturiser was a disappointment. I was willing to live with the fact that it’s very greasy and can leave white marks but after a week of usage I noticed that all pores on my nose and chin are blocked with white heads. This was the only change in my skincare routine and after I stopped using the product the problem was solved. Very disappointing

I’d been looking for a face spf for a while and was really excited when I found this. However when it arrived I thought faulty - it had slightly separated, had a grainy texture and didn’t absorb into the skin. My skin felt very tacky and I was aware of it sitting on top of my skin. I definitely couldn’t put make up over it. I went into a store only to find it wasn’t a fault but that’s just what the product is like. I don’t enjoy using it but the search continues for another spf for the face from an ethical brand
