Reviews

Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen

"I LOVE this product. I personally think it was the best product ever created during the pandemic. I cannot live without it. I wait for Friends & Family sales to stock up. I put it on every day after I cleanse, tone, serum and cream. The best thing is that you can put it on your forehead and it never burns your eyes even if you sweat. In the past you could never put sunscreen there and it's important!"

— Caren S. (5/5)

First Time Order. . . Forever in my Rotation

"I absolutely LOVE this product. Normally I hate applying sunscreen because it smells like sunscreen and is often greasy. This is truly non scented and goes on so smoothly and leaves my face feeling fresh and protected. I also brought it to my dermatologist he gave it the green light. Will continue to have this one in my skincare rotation!"

— Kelsey D. (5/5)

Best sunscreen ever

"My girlfriend told me about the unseen sunscreen. I’m allergic to so much things. I tried this product. There was. no sneezing, no itching, no allergic reaction! What else is terrific about this product … that it protects for a couple hours and I don’t get sunburn! Other sunscreen I would get sunburn. Supergoop you did a fabulous job finding a sunscreen that works and not allergenic!."

— Julie M. (5/5)

Sampled it and had to have it

"The unseen sunscreen feels luxurious on my face! Knowing that it also is providing the SPF protection that I know I should have is the best bonus. There is no SPF smell and it has the BEST feel on the hands and face."

— Margot Q. (5/5)

This was my holy grail. . .

"I had been using Unseen for the past 8+ years and I thought it was absolutely perfect. No burning eyes, no white cast, skin looks airbrushed, works with ANY makeup--incredible! When the SPF increased to 50, I thought " OMG! my perfect product is even better!" But since the change, it runs into my eyes and burns like hell, so I canceled my subscription. So disappointed."

— Frankie (2/5)

You MUST have this product 🤩

"I’m a sunscreen lover and also I wear make up no more than twice a week… Let me share my secret: -Perfect primer for make up days: unseen or matte screen -No make up/dewy skin look: glow screen 😍 Highly recommended, no white cast at all, several options for all types of occasions/styles, and no strong scent!"

— Ari G. (5/5)

Best sunscreen ever

"I've been using this for years and it's the only one I have literally put on every single day, even if I don't leave the house. It's a great mattifying makeup primer, doesn't pill over my face oils and serums and never makes me break out. The old formula was great, and the new one is even better."

— Kym (5/5)

a win all around

"from the first time my friend ever let me borrow this sunscreen, I knew I had to immediately get my own bottle. I have sensitive skin and have always been on the hunt for a good face sunscreen, and this one ticks every box! it’s light and easy to apply, and a little goes a long way. I also really appreciate that there’s zero whitecast"

— hayley (5/5)

Supergoop

"I've only used it twice however, so far it is smooth and have not experienced any irritation due to high sensitivity. I thought it was a sunscreen and primer, but a primer is required prior to applying my makeup due my combination skin and hyperpigmentation"

— Stephanie B. (4/5)

Best Sunscreen I've Tried

"This is the best sunscreen I have ever used. I wear it daily on my face since it has a mattifying finish and I just love it. I've even gotten my husband to start using it and he hates wearing sunscreen because they are typically so greasy, but not this one! It goes on so silky and feels like a luxury beauty item."

— Susana (5/5)

Hi Scarlett Thanks for reaching out! Yes! You can use your Flexible Spending Account dollars to purchase all Supergoop! SPF. Just use your FSA/HSA card like you would your credit card at checkout.

I can’t find this on my current tube of unseen 50 - usually there is a little icon that tells you how long it stays good AFTER you open it. How long does this product stay good after opening?
Hi Vanessa, The expiration date for the Unseen Sunscreen can be found along the crimped edge of the product. Reach out to hello@supergoop.com if you're still unable to locate it and we can assist you further!
My question isn't about the 50 PSF. My question is where is the Unseen Sunscreen 40 SPF? I hope it wasn't discontinued! That is my favorite sunscreen.
Hi Laurie, Great question! What's the difference between the new Unseen Sunscreen SPF 50 and the original Unseen Sunscreen formula. We kept everything you loved, and made it even more super! It has higher protection (SPF 50 vs. the original SPF 40), the formula is lighter weight and absorbs more quickly for an even more comfortable feel, it’s even more invisible straight out of the bottle and it is clinically tested for stronger skincare and beauty benefits like improved skin clarity and improved quality of makeup for longer-lasting, all-day wear.✨
Is this sunscreen non comedogenic
Yes, Unseen Sunscreen SPF 50 is noncomedogenic!
