Multiple Speaker Views:

Only one main reviewer presented, with detailed personal skin type and usage context.

Overall Verdict:

REEQUIL Tinted mineral sunscreen is a well-formulated, fragrance-free mineral sunscreen offering high SPF and broad spectrum protection including infrared radiation. It is especially suitable for those with neutral to pink undertones and normal to oily or combination skin types, and can work for dry skin if paired with adequate moisturizer. Its silicone content helps smooth skin texture but may not suit silicone-sensitive users. The tint may not universally flatter all undertones, particularly yellow. While thick in texture, it blends well and provides a matte finish. The product is reasonably priced and well-regarded for its protective claims, though further real-world sun exposure testing is pending. Recommended for users seeking a mineral sunscreen with antioxidant benefits and a tint that helps reduce white cast, especially for sensitive or acne-prone skin.

Recommendation:

Consider this sunscreen if you want a high SPF mineral option with a tint that suits pink undertones, and don’t mind a thicker texture that requires moisturizing. Avoid if you dislike silicones or have yellow undertones sensitive to pink tints.
