It is a Combination Sunscreen. Its active ingredients are Octinoxtate, Zinc Oxide, Uvinul T-150, Tinosorb S and Uvinul A Plus.

It DOES sting my eyes. I wouldn't call it stinging exactly but it made my eyes look and feel  tired throughout the day.

It DOES smell. It has a very slight fragrance that I would actually describe as herbal rather than chemical.  It fades very quickly and it wasn't a problem to me.

It did NOT gather in my wrinkles.

It did NOT leave a white cast on my skin. This is completely sheer. It is perfect for anybody who doesn't want to wear any sort of make-up or powder over their sunscreen. 

It DOES dry down in 20 minutes or less. It sets very quickly (in around just 5 minutes) to a soft, flexible, slightly tacky finish.

It DOES look lovely under make up. It truly does have a blurry priming effect that glosses over your skin texture, large pores, or dry patches 

It DOES stay throughout the day. 

This sunscreen has a thicker consistency and more comforting feel, it is best suited for dry, normal, or normal to dry skin types. It can work on normal to oily skin as well but I feel it would be particularly moisturising and beneficial to people with dry skin.

This is truly an invisible sunscreen, not only in terms of being sheer but also the finish. It's perfect for people who don’t want to look like they're wearing any product at all. If you don’t want to look oily, shiny and dewy you can still use this sunscreen in copious amounts. 

I would absolutely highly recommend this sunscreen to pretty much anybody. It is a fantastic price for truly undetectable sunscreen.
