 hard to use November 10, 2008
Betsy A. Powderly (Myrtle Beach, SC)
I used this product and was in the sun....didn't know I didn't have any on because it is clear and obviously I didn't because I got fried. Tried several times to reach dermadoctor and they did not return my emails. So, I am stuck with a product which I don't think works.
 Works for me! October 5, 2008
Lynda (Detroit, MI)
I'm allergic to "something" that is in sunscreen, ever since I was a kid. I break out in some type of itchy hives. Especially on my lips, which get pick, broken out in tiny bumps, and itch and burn like crazy. Therefore, every summer I just try to stay out of the sun as much as possible, since I don't wear sunscreen.
Well recently, I went to get a beta facial peel, as I prepare my face to get married. The esetitian (sp?) warned me that because of the peel that I HAD to wear a sunscreen. She told me about Peter Thomas Roth mineral suncreen, and that I could get it from Sephora. Of course, I was like, "sure... I'll get it"... but thinking that I would be ok without it. Well after I left the spa, I starting walking down the street with no intention of purchasing the mineral sunscreen (I live in NYC). As soon as my face hit the sun, I could feel my face stinging. So I quickly found a Sephora on my phone, and luckily there was one 2 blocks away. I asked the Sephora staff where the Peter Thomas Roth mineral sunscreen, and as soon as I saw it, I grabbed the "tester" and brushed it on my face. I was hesitant to spend $30 on it, but I knew that I would need it. So I coughed up the money to purchase it. When I left, the sun hit my face... and no stinging... or breakouts. It worked like magic!
I'm so excited that I found this. I now brush on the sunscreen every morning before leaving out. I'm just excited that I can finally use sunscreen without having an allergic reaction.
If you have sensitve skin, this will work for you. I wish there was a "body" mineral brush, so that I could use it all over my body... oh well.
Not SPF 30 September 30, 2008
K. Rew (Tacoma, WA USA)
I got several awful sunburns using this product, just walking to and from my car. Unless it's applied all over and very thick, "SPF 30" is a laughable claim. The worst part is that since it's slightly pigmented, the burns weren't apparent until I washed my face. The brush is low-quality acrylic and as other reviewers have mentioned, it leaks and fills the air with powder when you try to apply it. It's a nice idea, but I'll stick with lotion or spray sunscreen.
 almost perfect September 18, 2008
Laughing Sal (San Francisco)
what a great idea this product is! a totally portable sunscreen that I can re-apply during the day. as I am of Irish/Scottish descent, I really need to protect my skin from UVA rays.
this product does contain some pigment, which is probably necessary to prevent it from being 'chalky' on the skin. however, the product as a result gives my skin a yellowish tinge.
also, the dispensation mechanism needs to be improved. the brush tends to leak product. also, in pulling out the end in preparation to apply, the entire end popped off, showering me with powder. [I had not pulled hard.] after I finished laughing, I gathered up what I could and put it back into the cylinder. I lost about half of the product due to this design flaw. therefore, it is just about perfect. I would purchase this again, even with these shortcomings.
A MUST HAVE. GREAT PROTECTION. October 27, 2007
