Cons:
- Pump packaging leads to product wastage and difficulty in using every last bit
- The tint has a noticeable pink undertone which may not suit all skin tones
- Causes a visible white cast, especially when applied in the recommended amount (1 gram)
- Tint may not be deep enough for medium to darker skin tones; best suited for very fair, pink undertone skin
- Requires double cleansing to fully remove due to silicone content
- May need extra moisturizer underneath for dry skin types, as it can feel drying or insufficiently hydrating alone
- Anhydrous formula might not optimize hyaluronic acid’s moisture-binding benefits on dry skin
User Experience:
- The reviewer has dry skin and tested in a dry climate
- The sunscreen takes about 15-20 minutes to absorb fully
- White cast becomes more apparent with the recommended amount of product (two pumps)
- The tint does not fully eliminate the white cast, limiting its tinted sunscreen appeal
- The product sits well on skin but requires careful application and removal
- Suitable more for oily skin types than dry skin due to texture and hydration level
Comparisons:
- Compared to Deconstruct mineral sunscreen and G Gabit mineral sunscreen as silicone-free alternatives
- zinc oxide percentage (26%) is higher than any other mineral sunscreen the reviewer has tried
- The reviewer initially thought Deconstruct had the highest SPF but this product surpasses it with SPF 60
Additional Notes:
- Reviewer emphasizes the need for double cleansing to remove silicone-based sunscreens fully
- The reviewer is not a cosmetic chemist but shares understanding of hyaluronic acid’s behavior in skincare
- Mentions ongoing sales on the brand’s website, making it potentially more affordable during promotions
Different Speaker/Views:
The entire review appears to be from a single speaker providing a detailed, honest assessment with some technical insights and personal skin context.
Verdict / Overall Recommendation:
DERMACO Tinted 1% Hyaluronic Gel Sunscreen offers very high mineral sun protection with added hydration benefits from hyaluronic acid and a unique skin-protective ferment. It is best suited for oily skin types and very fair skin tones with pink undertones due to its pink tint and white cast when applied in recommended amounts. The pump packaging and silicone base may be drawbacks for some users, especially those with dry skin or who dislike white casts. If you have dry skin, be prepared to layer with moisturizer and double cleanse thoroughly. The product is a good option for those seeking a cruelty-free, high-SPF mineral gel sunscreen with a natural radiant finish but may not fully replace makeup for tint coverage on medium or darker skin tones.
