Reviews mention

  • Velvety, invisible finish

  • Inclusive, no white cast
  • Lightweight, elegant formulas
  • Occasional oily residue
  • Chemical scent or eye sting
  • Tinted shade range limitations
  • Packaging clogs or separation

Supergoop! earns largely positive reviews for wearable, no–white-cast SPF formulas that double as makeup primers—Unseen Sunscreen and Glow Screen frequently impress for smooth, lightweight application and everyday protection—yet some reviewers report greasiness, pilling, breakouts, or separation and question efficacy versus cheaper dupes. Reviews highlight inclusive, matte-to-glowy finishes, easy reapplication formats (sprays, sticks, powders), and family-friendly PLAY, while noting product-inherent drawbacks like oily feel, chemical scent or eye sting, heavy shine from Glow products, limited shade range in tints, and occasional packaging clogs or leaks.

  • I’m torn. Love the packaging and range of types of products but not sure they actually work great since I used (and reapplied) and still burn a little with these. I do want to try the oil spray. Only other complaint is they expire quickly. Like after 6 months it had a very weird odor like it had gone bad and I tossed it.

  • Very light! Easy for everyday wear but provided great full coverage.

  • I really love the texture and smell of this sunscreen! My favorite brand and new go-to. It applies really smoothly, isn't too thick, and doesn't leave a white residue. It seems to last a long time before you need to reapply and I find myself applying sunscreen more regularly as a base layer now that I've found my go-to!

    I had tried some earlier versions or other lines of their products where the sunscreen texture was more clear / gel-like and I personally didn't love that formulation. I much prefer the Play texture and consistency!

  • I've tried several of Supergoop!s products and I love all of them. My favorite is their 'Unscreen sunscreen' which doesn't have a greasy feel at all, and works great as a base for foundation, I also love the 'glow' one, which gives a nice shimmer to my face.

    Feedback

    Most of the packaging looks the same and sometimes I grab the wrong product I intend to bring with me on the go.

  • I purchased the PLAY spf 50 for face and body. The formula smells great - very light and refreshing scent - which helps for a sunscreen because they usually have that chemical smell to them. I like the formula a lot, but after a few weeks the formula started to separate, so I kept getting watery liquid out of the tube instead of the cream.

    Feedback

    The chemists need to make the formula more stable so it doesn't separate so easily. I didn't even leave it in the sun or in a warm place; I kept it at home in my bathroom, so this shouldn 't have happened....

  • Best sunscreen ever! Both chemical and mineral go on sheer and don’t have a white cast.

    Feedback

    I wish more kinds of sunscreen came in bulk sizes, like I’d love the glow screen in a bulk size.

  • I have used many of SUPERGOOP!'s products. Regularly I use their PLAY stick for when I do swim workouts. It's a great water resistant sunscreen which lasts the length of my workout (even as I'm sweating in the water) and never irritates my skin. I also really love the feel of the GLOW oil stick, for quick application when I know I won't be in the sun for very long. If you are used to oily products on your face (or even if you aren't!) the feel of glow screen is really light and nourishing.

    Unfortunately most of their sunscreen products do not have zinc oxide in them. I have very fair skin, and I regularly use products that make me more sun sensitive than I already am. Every dermatologist and esthetician I have ever seen has told me that sunscreen without zinc oxide will not adequately protect my skin from sun damage. Therefore, I shouldn't even really be using the GLOW oil stick. Though I still use it in a pinch when I know I'm just out and about for a few quick errands, when my sun exposure will really just be limited to driving / hopping in and out of the car.

  • Really good sunscreen built on clean beauty principles - definitely admire and appreciate this brand and think it should have much broader appeal. Whether for sports, everyday use or as a specialty sunscreen, this is a go to brand and it is FAR superior in its ingredients to mainstream drugstore sunscreens. Their products are also formulated very well - no chalky residue, no oiliness. Top sunscreen brand.

    Feedback

    Sometimes the packaging is overdone - looking for more sustainable approaches as the brand evolves.

  • Got their GLOW SCREEN because I wanted the shimmer, but because I have dry skin, this cream was too drying for me. I gave it to my 80 years old mom, she loved it.

    Feedback

    I guess it is not for all skin types, but overall, for normal skin, it is a good product.

  • I love the unseen sunscreen. I've gone through multiple tubes of this and am going to repurchase again. Great ingredients and goes on smooth without leaving you white or oily.

  • The sunscreen was recommended to me by people I deeply trust in the skincare world, so now I recommend it.

  • I've tried many of their products and have kept 2 in my daily/weekly rotation (Play and Glowscreen)! Love this brand for its targeted SPF focus & the shimmer effect of the Glowscreen is a total crowd pleaser. I often get comments about how much 'glow' I have :)

    Feedback

    Wish ingredients & formulas were more natural.

  • Glowing sunscreen makes me shine

    Feedback

    More shades for Chinese fair skin

  • I love this! The cream really sinks in, none greasy and doesn't bother make up

  • I love the focus on SPF products, with many great options based on how you'd like to use your products. Recently, the launches have had some overlap though. The things I like: packaging is so nice, very distinctive and modern, especially the Unseen sunscreen. There are PLENTY of options that you're bound to find something that works for you. What I didn't like: a lot of the options felt like cheaper drugstore sunscreens repackaged at a higher price point. Also, their mineral sunscreens with Zinc Oxide often hardened, and were unusable once you got down to the last 30%.

    Feedback

    The formula should be improved for a better user experience. A lotion/cream product should harden and be unusable.

  • I love SuperGoop’s unseen sunscreen. It applies beautifully and leaves a matte finish. Normally face sunscreen leaves a sticky or shiny residue, but with the Unseen Susncreen I can apply it knowing my face won’t look like an oil slick.

    Feedback

    Pricing… so expensive for the amount you get.

  • Love using Supergoop for my everyday routine. I apply the sunscreen before applying my makeup. It's very light and not too much. It's a purchase I go back to again and again!

  • Not greasy, excellent coverage!

    no complaints

  • I've tried just about every Supergoop! SKU and I love all of them. This brand has replaced every single sunscreen brand in my bag.
