I got this in a makeup subscription box. I have very oily skin and love a good matte moisturizer. This exceeded my expectations! It glides on smooth, keeps my face hydrated while also leaving it matte. It minimizes the touchups throughout the day. I also love that it has SPF in it! Definitely a bonus. I am in my forties and it been great for my skin but my daughter who is in her 20's also loves it and uses it everyday. I actually made this purchase for her so she would stop using mine. haha. But once I'm out, I will be purchasing for myself again!

This has become a staple in my morning skincare routine. IMAGE Skincare Daily Prevention feels lightweight, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave a greasy or white cast, which is hard to find in a daily SPF. It layers beautifully under makeup and doesn’t pill.I love that it provides strong sun protection while also feeling gentle on my skin. My skin feels hydrated and smooth throughout the day, and I haven’t experienced any irritation or breakouts. It’s perfect for everyday wear, even in hot or humid weather.A bit pricey, but absolutely worth it for the quality and how well it performs. I’ll definitely continue repurchasing.

It’s very smooth on my skin

Excellent quality no residue

This sunscreen is soothing and has a thick, creamy texture. It has a slight tint of color, but after applying it to the face it proves to be very sheer with no color per se but also none of the typical white mask look you get with an old school sunscreen. It feels super soothing and pleasant on the skin, and it looks seamless on the face with no cast. It absorbs well and doesn't make you look super oily almost like a highlighter like some other sunscreens do which is awesome. It smells like any other sunscreen and does not cause irritation on my sensitive skin. It nicely sealed and packaged well. Great stuff!

Pros:-This is lightweight and felt good on my skin, especially because sunscreen is usually the last step for me after serums and other face products, and I need something that isn't going to feel heavy when layered.-I like the protection and felt like it did prevent me from burning when other parts of my body burned at a recent event where I hadn't applied this... so, clearly, it works.-I love that it's broad-spectrum.-It doesn't have the weird "sunscreen" smell. It's pretty odorless/neutral. It also doesn't have that weird sunscreeny greasiness to it.Cons:-I don't love that this was tinted. While I think the tint kind of helped avoid a white cast, the fact that it's not listed as tinted and you never really get an opportunity to pick between light or dark means that it doesn't necessarily work for all skintones. I'm fair, and you could see a slight difference in the before/after of my skintone where I looked darker with this on than without it on... which tells me it doesn't apply invisibly.-It didn't go on matte for me. While I'm aware some of that may be that I layer skincare and this goes on after my toner, etc, I was surprised that it advertises as matte, and other matte products and sunscreens I've tried do matte-ify my underlayers, where this didn't. I didn't look greasy, but I definitely didn't look matte as advertised.I think it's a decent sunscreen, and a nice, portable size, but I don't think it would work well for extremely light or even moderately dark skintones, unfortunately.

The IMAGE Skincare DAILY PREVENTION Sheer Matte Moisturizer SPF 30 is a fantastic choice for those looking for lightweight sun protection with a matte finish. This oil-free moisturizer is formulated with XOSM™ Technology and oil-reducing microspheres, which help control shine and leave the skin feeling smooth and non-greasy throughout the day. It provides broad-spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays, making it a reliable daily sunscreen. I particularly love how it doubles as a primer, creating a smooth base for makeup while keeping my skin shine-free. Additionally, it delivers light hydration and helps reinforce the skin's moisture barrier, which is a bonus for those with combination or oily skin.One area for improvement would be the reapplication process. While it’s effective for initial use, reapplying every two hours, as recommended for sun protection, can be tricky when wearing makeup. A spray or mist version of this product could make reapplication more convenient. Additionally, while the formula is lightweight, those with very dry skin might find it less hydrating than they’d prefer.Fun Fact: Clinical results show that 80% of users agreed this moisturizer controls shine and keeps skin mattified throughout the day, and 90% agreed it doesn’t leave a white cast after application.Overall, this moisturizer is an excellent option for anyone seeking a multitasking product that protects, hydrates, and controls shine, with just a few tweaks that could make it even more versatile!

I adore this lightly tinted moisturizer. It goes on a bit lighter than my skin tone, so was worried it would not be complimentary but it blends right in and evens out my skin tone. I like knowing I’m using SPF daily and protecting my skin while also using a product that is gentle and moisturizing. This product and brand has been amazing for my skin, no breakouts or issues and it is gentle. I love this moisturizer and a little goes a long way.
