This sunscreen has a light creamy consistency that absorbs very well leaving a light white film but fades quickly although it leaves a faint "Tone Up" finish very common in a physical sunscreen. It does not leave a greasy trace and leave a discreet shine on the skin, it even has a semi-matte finish that I really like. It doesn't feel heavy and it's hydrating, My recommendation is to use the right amount and not overdo it. It didn't clog my pores or irritate my eyes.
