Not suitable for brown skin
Made my skin look like a corpse being prepared for burial. Very chalky in appearance.

Hello Danielle, Thank you for your review of the Urban Environment Oil-Free UV Protector SPF 42. We apologize for your disappointment in the finish. This ultra-lightweight, shine free daily sunscreen is best suited to normal to oily skin types and does contain zinc oxide as one of the sunscreen ingredients for maximum protection, however, zinc oxide does sometimes leave a residue as it is a physical, mineral blocker. -Alison, Skincare Expert

Warning: check the expiration date
I love this sunscreen, I've been using it religiously for years. The formula dries down matte and makeup layers on top of it with no pilling or moving around. My only issue with my latest purchase is that the bottle I received expires in less than 6 months. Granted, I'll probably finish it before then since I try to use it every time I'll be in sun, but typically products have a shelf life of at least a year from receiving it. Would recommend others check the expiration date.

Perfection
Perfect for my oily complexion! If you’ve ever had trouble with sunscreen stinging your eyes, then you’ve got to try this one. It glides on with a liquid consistency and dries quickly with a soft non-greasy non-tacky texture. And it really does mattify my oily skin! I look so much less shiny than when I wear anything else.
If you have a light olive or medium complexion, it does have a very slight white cast that does a pretty good job of blending in. I absolutely love it’s mattifying ability for oily complexions, and the way it smooths the texture of your skin is great for an “au naturel” look.

Like this original version
It's been my all time favorite. I read something about the new version of this sunscreen, and I decided to stay with this original one. Non greasy, light weight, very happy about it.
