Dermatological sunscreen!
I could not find this sunscreen and the Skinceuticals brand anywhere. The only store that carries the brand is Bluemercury Cosmetic store. There is no such store in my area. I really enjoy the Dermstore website, fast, convenient, quick delivery. The website is user friendly. My children like the website!

Just what I was looking for!
Great sunscreen that provides a nice amount of coverage. It evened out my skin tone, but doesn't look like I'm wearing makeup at the beach. Kept me sunburn free for over 6 hours and kept the shine at bay too! Great for oily/combo skin.

This is the best Skinceuticals sunscreen for me
I've tried pretty much all of Skinceuticals UV products by now, and this is my favorite by far. Why? The texture is DRY, thank heavens. I can't tolerate the drippier versions that you have to shake up, or the more moisturizing-like ones that leave your face slightly white and feel thick and a little wet. This one goes right after my moisturizers, and doesn't add anything except sun protection. No color, no added shine, nothing. I LOVE IT!! I hope Skinceuticals decides to make these in bigger, more economical sizes.

Excellent sunscreen!!
I had seen so many reviews about this product and i decided to purchase on a whim. It is excellent. I have oily skin and was not wild about having to put something more oily on my face. However, this product spreads beautifully, sinks in quickly, leaves a matt finish and there is a little tint in the product so it evens skin tone. Will definitely repurchase!

I really like this!!!
I can't believe how much I like this sunscreen. I have normal to dry skin (due to aging) and this sunscreen makes my skin look better when I'm wearing it. I'm fortunate to have nice skin and often get compliments on how good it looks when I'm not wearing any foundation. I like a little bit of a radiant look & my previous sunscreen favorite was Aveeno Positively Radiant SPF 30. That's why I'm even more surprised that I like this Physical Matte EV Defense SPF 50 so much. Even though it's matte, it doesn't have the typical flat matte look. Love it!!!

Fine product but bad odor
This product is lightweight compared to the majority of facial sunblocks on the market. I have normal to oily skin which starts off slightly dry and gets shiny by the end of the day. This product does an okay job of absorbing the oil. The finish is semi-matte, almost dewy and needs a light layer of powder to achieve a true shine-free matte. The coverage is really nice. You can skip foundation because it evens out the skin tone well. My skin color is light and this tint is slightly dark on me, but the difference is not very noticeable. The one quality I dislike is the odor. It is toxic smelling. It reminds me of chemical sunscreens rather than the physical sunscreen that it is. I got used to the odor but it would prevent me from purchasing again. To compare Physical Matte to my favorite sunscreen, which is Coola Mineral Face SPF 30 Matte Tint, I like Coola more because it's made of mostly organic ingredients and has a truly matte finish with no noticeable fragrance. It is also less expensive. The tint is more sheer than with Skinceuticals Physical Matte. So on days that I want more coverage, I'll use the Physical Matte.

This Sun Protection is a Winner!
I love Physical Matte UV Defense SPF 50 and will be purchasing it again! It offers a clean, lightweight, matte finish that is great for those days when I don't want to wear anything heavier on my face. It's straightforward sun protection, with the bonus of making your skin look just that little bit better. I have "aging, oily" skin and apply this after my SkinCeuticals "Adult Acne" regimen and Daily Moisture. Also appreciate that this product doesn't irritate my eyes like some sunscreens do. Although it does have zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, it does not make the skin look white. NOTE: I have found that it is helpful to shake the tube a little bit before application - I live in Phoenix and I think the hot weather (even with air conditioning) causes the product to separate slightly.

Truly matte finish
I have used both facial sunscreens by Skinceuticals. I have oily skin and this product works beautifully. It provides excellent protection and does not make my skin oily. I use it as my foundation and it doesn't make my skin feel greasy. I live in Florida with its high humidity and find this product works beautifully and provides a soft tint. I do apply a serum beneath it and it helps the matte sunscreen glide on. Covers my skin and leaves it looking nicely textured and does cover up the large pores nicely.
