Fenty Skin Hydra Vizor Broad Spectrum Mineral SPF 30 Sunscreen Moisturizer, 50 ml / 1.7 fl. oz., by Rihanna

I’ve tried majority of the brand when Fenty Skin launched, and this is one of the few products i’ve found myself returning to. I live in a colder climate, so I especially enjoy this product in the Summer when i’m out in the sun a lot more. The moisturizer added a glow to my skin and along with the amazing smell, it leaves my skin feeling soft while providing the extra coverage when out in the sun (which is great since you should always use a sunscreen)! I used this product first of all a few years ago when I worked a summer outdoor job (in and out of shade), and it definitely works great as a light sunscreen! Since i also was working outside, i appreciated that it didn’t leave my skin feeling oily and it did not clog my pores whatsoever. If you plan on tanning or ... MoreI’ve tried majority of the brand when Fenty Skin launched, and this is one of the few products i’ve found myself returning to.

Since i also was working outside, i appreciated that it didn’t leave my skin feeling oily and it did not clog my pores whatsoever. If you plan on tanning or being in the sun directly for a longer period, I would suggest looking at an additional sunscreen or even just keep the Fenty moisturizer with you so you can reapply. I would definitely recommend this product for everyday use, even if you’re not in the sun for a long period of time, using an SPF moisturizer in the morning has its benefits!

A good mineral spf choice!

For reference I am a medium neutral in the bare minerals powder foundation & also allergic to chemical spf.Like many others, most of the mineral spfs I have tried have given me a white cast or require some serious arm work to blend the product in. This left no white cast on me, settled in quick, and I think the pinkish tint helps a lot with this. It does have a sort of medicinal/rubber-y smell to it; not something I liked nor hated, per se. It quickly dissipates, or maybe I was just noseblind to it at that point.I love that this doubles as a make-up base. I find even without make-up it leaves me with nice finish. A comparable product I'd say is Supergoop's ZincScreen (which I previously tried but still sunburned despite it), though this formula is a little ... MoreFor reference I am a medium neutral in the bare minerals powder foundation & also allergic to chemical spf.Like many others, most of the mineral spfs I have tried have given me a white cast or require some serious arm work to blend the product in.

Best for normal to Dry skin

Beautiful moisturizer, but if you have oily skin you will be better served by the Paulas Choice Youth Extending spf 50. Its also clear, but as a moisturizer its a better fit for olier skin types. Its less emollient and more lightweight. A watery lotion. It also does a soft set wich makes it a better spf barrier because it doesnt mix as readily into your foundation (that waters it down). It grips a little to the skin.Hydro Vizor is very similar to the Neutrogena Hydro Boost spf 30-50 in the squeeze tube. With both if you touch your face the spf transfers onto your fingers with that oily shine typical of chemical sunscreens. This means that when you apply your foundation it literally mixes into the sunscreen.The Paulas choice has much less of that happening. Even ... MoreBeautiful moisturizer, but if you have oily skin you will be better served by the Paulas Choice Youth Extending spf 50.

Even though Hydro vizor transfers onto fingers, the foundations ive tried buff into it beautifully.Hydro vizor is also similar to the PTR Water Drench spf 45, BUT its a little more lightweight, and not as comedogenic. The PTR feels suffocating on me (but its also a fantastic moisturizer) and breaks me out. The hydro Vizor doesnt feel suffocating and doesnt break me out. Its just emollient, wich can be a plus because it makes full coverage, matte foundations look very skin like.Would only reccomend for oily skin if you live in a cold, dry climate. If you live somewhere humid, youd be better served by the Paulas Choice Youth Extending spf 50 fluid, wich is also a moisturizer that goes great under makeup. No breakouts with thag one either.

Honest review!

It is definitely different from the OG, so expect that when buying. The texture is thinner and the scent is not the same. The way it works into my routine is a little bit different too. I would not recommend using this with the OG Fat Water, because zinc can be a tad drying, so pairing with the Fat Water Milky Toner is probably your best bet. There is a slight cast but i have a more olive skin tone so it’s not really an issue. It’s definitely doable and does give you the same glow as the OG. If you’re someone who has a complete skin care routine, I think it would be a great addition if you enjoy mineral spfs. My boyfriend doesn’t like to buy a lot of products so he uses the 3 OG Starters day and night. I would NOT wear this to bed. The OG is more of a moisturizer ... MoreIt is definitely different from the OG, so expect that when buying. The texture is thinner and the scent is not the same.

The OG is more of a moisturizer with added SPF, where as the mineral is more of a hydrating sunscreen. My makeup does lay very nice on top of this one just like the original. So overall there’s Pros & Cons, but if you enjoy mineral sunscreens you should check it out (with the Fat Water Milky to keep your hydration up!)

I hate it!!!!!

So, I went in the store to purchase my refill thinking I picked up the same Hydra Vizor refillable Invisible Face Moisturizer SPF 30 Niacinamide that I have been using for the past two years. Well it wasn't until the next morning when I was doing my morning facial regimen that I realized that this was not it. I hate the way it leaves this tent on my face. I immediately smelled it and it didn't smell like that bubble gum scent. I hate the medicine smell that it gives. It feels and looks horrible on my skin. I was unaware that there was even a new moisturizer because it was not displayed at the store and of course I hadn't checked online. I want to return it but I already threw the box away. I will give this stuff away that's how much I hate it. I am very disappointed ... MoreSo, I went in the store to purchase my refill thinking I picked up the same Hydra Vizor refillable Invisible Face Moisturizer SPF 30 Niacinamide that I have been using for the past two years.

Made my friend ask me if I was pregnant lol

I love this! Not sure if it helps with dark spots as I haven’t had any bad acne flair ups since using it-props to it not causing any breakouts though! I religiously used Fresh Rose Hydration cream as my moisturizer for years, but I have to admit it doesn’t always play well with other products on too (such as spf, which I know is essential). I’m so glad I went out on a limb and picked this up for daytime use. It plays well with products underneath, as well as mixes fairly decently with the fenty skin tint (for when I can’t be bothered to give it time to set, haha). I’ve been using it for a couple months, but today I went to visit a friend and she was super impressed with my skin. She was like, “omg, what are you wearing? You’re totally glowing, are you pregnant?” ... MoreI love this!

Sometimes if I’ve gone too hard with serums and what not underneath, it can get a little greasy feeling, but nothing a quick pat of fenty setting poder can’t fix

New formula is not it

Like everyone else I was gutted when this was out of stock everywhere, delighted when it came back, horrified when I pressed the pump and it’s BRIGHT PINK! The new formula is thicker in consistency. It has the same underlying scent, but it’s almost overpowered by a smell like old plastic fake Tupperware. The pink leaves an ashy cast on my skin (pale olive - might not happen on people with pinker toned skin) and I have to spend ages rubbing it in.Why 3 stars? It still works well and you only have to use a tiny bit of it (it goes further than the original and using a small pump gets past the grey cast issue). I’ve got it now so might as well use it. So, so disappointed because the old formula (white, lightweight, more like a gel, gorgeous scent) was a game-changer. ... MoreLike everyone else I was gutted when this was out of stock everywhere, delighted when it came back, horrified when I pressed the pump and it’s BRIGHT PINK!

I never used skincare before it, but the OG Hydravizor plus Fat Water gave me super radiant skin in 3 days.A major shame. Hope they bring back the original but if you’ve bought this then it’s not the end of the world.

Perfect moisturizer for dry skin in FL

This is the best mineral sunscreen I’ve tried so far on myself and my husband (most notable ones include Kosas, Saie, Ilia, Tower 28, CLE, Native, Pacifica, Beautycounter, Iris & Romeo). I have very dry, neutral medium-tan skin; my husband’s warm pale-light toned skin is super sensitized and dry but also breaks out very easily. We’re usually hot, sweaty, and sticky from humid FL weather, causing us to wipe off and reapply sunscreen often.- Smooth application- Comfortably moisturizing- No ashy cast or chalky finish- Doesn’t burn eyes- Doesn’t cling to flakes or dry spots- No greasy/glowy/shiny residue- No earthy funky smell (looking at you, Ilia)- Minimal packaging- Reef- safe ingredients- Reasonably priced- Usually in stock at several local Sephora ... MoreThis is the best mineral sunscreen I’ve tried so far on myself and my husband (most notable ones include Kosas, Saie, Ilia, Tower 28, CLE, Native, Pacifica, Beautycounter, Iris & Romeo).

So Glad they Came out with a FRAGRANCE FREE LINE!

I was Very hesitant to give this a Second try ONLY because the first time, I bought the Original version. It had Fragrance.. which Broke me out due to my sensitive skin but once I seen that they had a FRAGRANCE-FREE version.. I COULDN’T BE ANYMORE HAPPIER! I swear this is exactly what I needed, it’s my EVERYDAY Moisturizer & even PRIMER! I haven’t used a primer with my makeup since using this! It keeps my face protected and moisturized, WITHOUT feeling GREASY like a lot of SPFS, And Moisturizers WITH SPF do! So I’m so glad they came out with a fragrance free line! The only “Problem” is that Fenty doesn’t Sell a Fragrance-Free Refillable option. I just hate to spend more money on a refillable container I already have, let alone pay extra for a new set.

As well as Not having the FRAGRANCE-FREE line in sephora.. so those are the only downsides but Besides that, I love it! And would HIGHLY RECOMMEND for people with SENSITIVE SKIN and for people who want a 2in1 moisturizer/spf!!!

Unpleasant fragrance and fiddly assembly

I bought this as a reef friendly suncream to support nature and the fact I could re-fill. I was planning to use it all over my body but think it is mainly for the face due to the small amount of product and it is coloured a salmon pink which would prevent you wearing light coloured clothing. It has an unpleasant strong scent which is just like the leather cleaner and conditioner I use on my furniture and for this reason I will not be purchasing again. It does not smell of melon or the fragrance ingredients used described as lemon, citrus or jasmine (citral, hexyl cinnamyl, Benzyl salicylate). The case and refill come separately and I did not like having to assemble the product myself. The instructions to push and click did not feel secure and I was worried about the ... MoreI bought this as a reef friendly suncream to support nature and the fact I could re-fill.

The instructions to push and click did not feel secure and I was worried about the product leaking whilst doing this. When it is in the case, you twist it to raise the dispenser which looks slick but not totally trusting it will travel without opening or leaking and how beach or sand proof it will be. The product does feel silky smooth and absorbs very well with the recipe of silicon and emulsifiers getting the feel just right. I have only given it 3 stars due to the fragrance
