The Ordinary UV Filters SPF 45 Serum Sunscreen for Face, Lightweight Hydrating Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen, UVA/UVB Protection, Non-Comedogenic, No White Cast, 2 Fl Oz

I have such a hard time finding products with a creamy consistency like traditional sunscreen, moisturizers, and even thick foundations. I'm not sure why but my skin quickly has little droplets of sweat after applying those, even if I'm not sweaty. This is a serum consistency and applies easily. I do NOT have that weird droplet problem with this sunscreen. It's the only product in over 10 years that I've found that offers skin protection that actually soaks into my skin. There is a slight oily film after applying that sticks around. Not too odd for sunscreens. I think blotting paper or applying a finishing powder before applying makeup would help most people take care of that. I'd say wait maybe 20 minutes before applying makeup to let it soak in. A bit inconvenient, but I just do other stuff to get ready in the meantime. Overall, the oily film that sticks around isn't too bad, but is noticeable. It's absolutely worth it for me who has had problems finding a sunscreen that actually works for me. I really don't think it's that much worse than a standard sunscreen. Note that I have fair skin. The product is white, and I don't think there would be a problem with people who have up to medium skin tones. I haven't tested on darker skin so I'm not sure if it would cause an ashy appearance. However, it is a serum consistency and only a little is needed to cover the whole face, so I think it's worth trying.

This is now my number one favorite sunscreen. The reviews were right. It goes on completely sheer with no white cast and feels more like a light serum than a traditional SPF. It absorbs quickly, layers well under makeup, and leaves my skin looking smooth and healthy instead of greasy. I love how lightweight and hydrating it feels for everyday wear. A great broad-spectrum option if you want protection without feeling like you’re wearing sunscreen.

I love The Ordinary products, and this serum sunscreen is amazing. It feels very lightweight on the skin and doesn’t feel heavy or greasy at all. It absorbs well and is perfect for everyday use. Definitely a great addition to my skincare routine!

I’ve tried a lot of sunscreens over the years, but this one has quickly become a staple in my skincare routine. It applies smoothly, absorbs fast, and doesn’t leave that heavy, greasy feeling that many sunscreens tend to have. Best of all—it doesn’t leave a white cast, even on deeper skin tones, which is a huge plus! The texture is lightweight and breathable, making it perfect for everyday use under makeup or on its own. I’ve used it during workouts, beach days, and even under intense sun, and it holds up really well without clogging pores or causing breakouts. Another thing I love is that it doesn’t have a strong, overpowering scent—just a clean, subtle fragrance that fades quickly. And with broad-spectrum SPF protection, I feel confident my skin is getting the coverage it needs. If you’re looking for a reliable, non-irritating sunscreen that feels good on the skin and actually works, this one’s worth trying. Highly recommend!

Very good not as greasy as some

this stuff is amazing! it’s clear on the face, rubs in well and leaves my face feeling and looking hydrated. my skin is rather sensitive and combination dry/oily leaning more dry and i have had no problems once so ever!

Works great to help shield my melasma and helps out from getting worse. It leaves a hydrated looking sheen but it’s not hydrating, sometimes I feel like I need an extra bit of moisture after apply it.

Bought for 21 year old son, outdoor enthusiast. He loved it. Very light and clean feeling.
