Bliss Block Star Tinted Mineral Face Sunscreen SPF 30 - 1.4 Fl Oz - Radiant

Update: Setting powder over this sunscreen is a great combo! Also keeps my oily skin nice and matte. I almost deducted a star because this sunscreen and its tint can rub off, which I don’t like. I didn’t want something more like makeup than a moisturizer. I wanted a sunscreen that didn’t leave my face so pale and was willing to try mineral instead of chemical to see which I like better. Overall, this sunscreen is great. PRICE - It is pricey. There are less expensive ones out there but also much more expensive ones. I got this on sale, so I was okay with what I paid. INGREDIENTS - I appreciate Bliss being cruelty free and including several natural ingredients in their products. That goes for this product, too. SCENT - Not the traditional sunscreen smell! Just the lovely herbal scent of lavender. I have never used a sunscreen like that—I think it’s great. SKIN TYPE - I have combo oily skin—normal in the cheeks and oily/acne-prone in the T-zone. This did not make my face greasy or cause breakouts. It made my skin tone look very even and like I was wearing a very light coverage foundation. It left my face feeling soft. It does not leave a matte finish on its own, but maybe setting powder applied on top could give that effect (I’m also considering switching to a matte moisturizer, so I look forward to seeing what that could do). Of course, your skin may be greasy after using this if you don’t prep for it properly. For example, I use things like a foaming cleanser and niacinamide serum to balance oiliness. Overall, I believe this sunscreen would be friendly to all skin types. DURABILITY - I don’t think this product would hold up through intense exercise, but that depends on how much you sweat and wipe your face as well as the air temperature where you live. I played sports (moderate intensity) while wearing this one day and it held up fine because nothing touched my face. I would not use a hat or sweat towel with it because the tint wipes off. That is to be expected with mineral sunscreen, which is supposed to sit on top of the skin, so keep that in mind. IN CONCLUSION - This sunscreen is a keeper. I would wear it for special occasions, light to moderately active days, and when I am not worried about it rubbing off on fabrics; however, I will buy a more affordable, durable, and sheer sunscreen to have as well, especially for game days / beach days / or really any day where I don’t want my sunscreen sitting on top of my face.

I applied this over my sunscreen before I left the ship . Applies smoothly and does not feel greasy

I got this from the IG recommendation of the Budget Dermatologist who loves this sunscreen. It really is nice if you like a good, matte SPF. It's not a foundation but its tint helps to disguise minor redness. I had to deduct one star only because it's too dark for me. Maybelline's Super Stay shade 112 works for me. If you're any darker than that, then this should work well for you!!

As someone who remembers when Dwight D. Eisenhower was President of the United States, it's safe to say I'm no spring chicken! This year, I've been on a quest to find a foundation that helps hide age spots (especially on my forehead) without making me look overly made up. After trying quite a few products, I've settled on tinted moisturizers with SPF because they're lightweight, provide coverage, and offer sun protection. I've tried several brands, and Bliss has become my favorite. I honestly don't know how they manage to sell just one shade and have it work for so many people, but somehow they've figured it out. The color matches my skin tone perfectly. Unlike many tinted moisturizers, it doesn't leave my face looking shiny or greasy. I have fairly noticeable sun damage, and while no product is going to cover it completely, this does a surprisingly good job. I'd estimate it covers about 80% of it, which is impressive and leaves me looking much more polished and refreshed. I use a little concealer here and there, and that combination works beautifully. I don't plan on giving up my time outdoors, so I'm especially happy that this moisturizer includes SPF 30. Overall, this has become a staple in my daily routine.

This is the best skin care it covers like makeup and doesn’t block pores. Leaves your skin looking natural.

Here's the thing, it doesn't have multiple color options so, if you're not the right shade, you're stuck. I feel like that's a bit of a disservice when dealing with a product that is supposed to apply color to the face and match your skintone. Like foundation or concealer, if your going to put out a skintone focused product, there should be enough range to cover many different skintones. There's one shade. That's it. And even on me, a paler girl, it's a bit too yellow and I have to work with it for it to be unnoticeable. The color reminds me of back in the day, when the only undertone to exist in affordable makeup was an unflattering yellow. The bane of my cool toned existence, lol. HOWEVER, I don't even know if there's ACTUALLY a tint! Like, yes there's a color when I first apply, but it's like the pigment literally disappears after your rub it into your face. I've even wiped my hands on my dark grey sleep shirt after applying and it didn't leave color on my shirt? Why wouldn't it do that when it's supposed to be a tinted product? Shouldn't it leave color behind if I wiped it off my hands and onto my shirt? How can a product be "invisible" and tinted at the same time? I mean, if it was meant to go on tinted and then turn clear to "match" your skintone, I feel like that kinda defeats the purpose of a tinted product. I don't understand how this product can 'effortlessly blend into all skintones' with only one color. Also, it does have a sunscreen smell. Personally, I don't mind it, but I know there are people who don't want a smell with their sunscreen or facial products in general. All the negatives aside, if your the right shade and you don't mind the smell, then it's a nice tinted sunscreen and I feel like it does protect from the sun. There's just too many other variables that make me not so happy with the product. If there was a better shade range and the tint actually stayed, I might like it more.

I'm mid-to-late 40's with aging sensitive skin. This product has a nice texture and feels comfortable on my skin. I only buy when it's on sale.

The best thing about this tinted spf is that I can finally put on the appropriate amount of mineral sunblock without it giving a white cast OR a cakey foundation effect. As a middle aged woman trying to mitigate age spots etc, I layer this stuff as much as I want and it’s undetectable. I don’t even see that it evens out my skin tone with thick application, but that’s kind of what I want. Just pure, effective sun BLOCK without the inevitable white cast. Don’t love the rosemary fragrance but doesn’t seem to irritate my skin. I also just bought Cerave’s version of this and it’s way shiny. Bliss’s texture is juuuust right. I wish it was still as cheap as I was first seeing it here last year, under $20 I think?

Very good Spf. Tint is a medium and would suit most fair/medium skin tones. Very smooth and creamy, easy to apply the quarter teaspoon without looking cakey. Evens out skin tone beautifully, pop a bit of blusher on, job done and out the door. It is a little bit on the expensive side if using everyday but I think its worth it, have just bought another one

Great texture. Great tint. If only it was fragrance free, I’d repurchase.

Love the sunscreen. But tint too dark for my skin tone .

I saw this on YouTube and decided to try it. It looks and feels like foundation, I've never used a tinted sunscreen so good.

Love this tinted spf…I don’t even need foundation. It is scented so if that irritates your skin maybe not for you.
