Review 1 for Protect The Truth™ Vitamin C SPF 50+ Sunscreen
Excellent under BB creams
-05.10.13
Quick Take: non-greasy, blends in easily, lightweight
I love this sunscreen because it IS so lightweight and yet has a protection factor of 50 plus.
It wears great under Amore Pacific Moisture Bound Tinted Treatment Moisturizer (the best BB out there, in my opinion) or moisturizing foundations.

Review 2 for Protect The Truth™ Vitamin C SPF 50+ Sunscreen
sensitive birthmark on face - great for it!
-05.04.13
Quick Take: non-greasy, blends in easily, natural, nice smell, great sun protection, long lasting
I have a large sensitive portwine stain birthmark on my face and if it gets sunburned it hurts worse than regular skin. This product is great. I've had it about a month and have been outside for hours with it. It is not greasy, goes on smooth under Ole's sheer transformation moisturizer. I was using his Truth Revealed...15 SPF, but I find it to be a little thick. This product provides more sun protection and doesn't feel as thick on the face. A little of the product goes a long way. Worth the money.

Review 6 for Protect The Truth™ Vitamin C SPF 50+ Sunscreen
I miss the old one
-03.28.13
Quick Take: natural
I prefer the older one better. This one feels more like sunscreen than just a nice face lotion with sunscreen in it, giving it more of an oily feel. Also, it smells like Fruity Pebbles. Still a nice lotion though.

Review 7 for Protect The Truth™ Vitamin C SPF 50+ Sunscreen
Wonderful product
-03.27.13
Quick Take: blends in easily, natural, has a good natural scent
I started using several products from this line and I love them all. I have been looking for years for a facial sunscreen that went on more like a moisturizer instead of a heavy sunblock. This is like that and it smells slightly of oranges instead that odd sunscreen smell. You only need a little, it goes on easily, doesn't leave white marks and makeup goes over it smoothly. Great!!

Review 8 for Protect The Truth™ Vitamin C SPF 50+ Sunscreen
Shine-Free
-03.15.13
I love this product because it is one of the very few face lotions that does not leave my skin looking shiny. It's lightweight and truly oil-free with a high SPF. I am a repeat buyer.

Good sunscreen
-01.27.13
A little think and hard to blend in, but otherwise fantastic sunscreen. I love the smell - it's more citrus and less typical sunscreen smell. It served me well on a 2 week trip to Hawaii, and I didn't burn at all. Much better than any drug store brand.

Review 10 for Protect The Truth™ Vitamin C SPF 50+ Sunscreen
-11.24.12
This is the WORST sunscreen I've ever used. The smell is strange, the cream is too heavy and makes the face oily, especially in summer. My friends kept asking me 'what's wrong with your face?'when I used it.

Review 14 for Protect The Truth™ Vitamin C SPF 50+ Sunscreen
Great product!
-08.31.12
Quick Take: non-greasy, blends in easily, natural, white cast, cruelty free, high spf protection, smells amazing
This is a very nice SPF cream, it has one of the highest SPFs on the market, especially for a natural line, reasonably priced, smells so delicious, not too greasy, not too thick, lays well under makeup, company doesn't test on animals. Definitely worth a try if you are serious about skincare. My only con with it that compared to BORBA's 100+ face moisturizer this leaves a noticeable white cast on my face, I'm medium/olive toned and, I don't know how it'll work out in the winter months, but in the summer I can't walk out of the house without putting some sort of make up on my face to cancel out the white cast. BORBA's product provides me all the benefits of this one, is a few bucks cheaper than this and minus the white cast, therefore will be my #1 choice, OH is a definite second.

Review 15 for Protect The Truth™ Vitamin C SPF 50+ Sunscreen
Pretty lightweight though a little clogging
-08.28.12
Quick Take: lightweight, protective
I like that this stuff is SPF 50+ and it does feel pretty sheer and my complexion stayed relatively matte and oil-free throughout the day. My main complaint was that by the end of the day my pores looked bigger and a little clogged, blackhead-style (though not badly). However, no breakouts have been forthcoming, which is a plus. Probably I just need to find the right combination of how to use this with my regular moisturizer/toner/etc.

excellent non-greasy
-08.06.12
I bought a tube for me and my mom because I know she'll love it. It's a non-greasy formula and the smell is wonderful on my skin. I can go outside in the blazing sun and feel like my skin is protected.

Review 18 for Protect The Truth™ Vitamin C SPF 50+ Sunscreen
-08.05.12
Yikes! Not a fan! I don't understand why I had to apply it before and not after my moisturizer (?).... it made me break out, but fortunately my skin cleared up within a few days. I like OH products, and they are usually very good for my skin (i.e. the exfoliating mask that they used to make with oxygen and tea tree oil with the purple label *sigh) anyways, had to return it, definitely not something I would like to purchase for myself. I think they need to rethink this one again. *REBOOT*

Review 19 for Protect The Truth™ Vitamin C SPF 50+ Sunscreen
hesitant at first!
-08.02.12
Quick Take: non-greasy, blends in easily, natural, smells great, great for sensitive skin
I'll be turning thirty this year and I've really neglected my skin... I pretty much never used sunblock. Recently, I've begun to see the early signs of aging on my face, and I've been scared straight! I have very sensitive skin and I was VERY hesitant to use a sunscreen under my moisturizer AND makeup! I have to say, since using the Ole Henricksen line and this sunscreen, I haven't broken out and my skin looks great. I miss my tan, but I definitely won't miss the sun spots! Now I just need to find a really great self tanner... I would highly recommend this product.

Review 20 for Protect The Truth™ Vitamin C SPF 50+ Sunscreen
Moisturizing, effective, and a perfect sunscreen!
-07.25.12
Quick Take: non-greasy, blends in easily, natural, moisturizing, light
Fantastic sunscreen for dry skin and dry climates. This is a fantastic sunscreen and provides REAL protection, can easily be worn under make-up, and the second best part, it is a natural product.
