Good!
This sunscreen is great to wear under makeup. It's thinner than "regular" sunscreen and doesn't smell so strongly. I like it.

Burning
Recently purchased this serum as was looking for one with SPF suitable to apply under make-up. It went on really nicely but when I came to take my make-up off at night it caused my face to burn and was really painful. I use other Ordinary products to cleanse and moisturise and all are supposed to be compatible with this serum. I tried it for a few days but each time it left me with a burning sensation on my face which was quite painful. Since I stopped using this, the burning has also stopped.

Avoid octocrylene
Octrocrylene is harmful for environment, and also doubtful to be used on skin at all

My skin broke out in spots
I bought this product a couple of weeks ago and was excited based on its great description and ingredients - and my previous experience with The Ordinary products. Unfortunately, this serum is not for me. Just like many other reviews, my skin broke out in spots, tiny reddish bumps where I applied the product. It’s been a couple of days and it’s looking better, but on my shoulders and neck where I reapplied more often it’s still bumpy and itchy. I wouldn’t buy again or recommend this product, considering it seems to be a somewhat common side effect.

So affordable!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sunscreen was so lightweight and moisturizing, and didn’t make my makeup pill at all. I love wearing this on a daily basis to get my SPF in for the day. Definitely a must try for the price! gifted by theordinary

A new fave
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product gifted by theordinary in exchange for my honest review. I really enjoy this spf as it blends so well into my skin and it plays really well under my makeup - no pilling at all. It doesn’t leave my skin overly dry or matte feeling like some other spfs. Big fan!
