For a glowy face sunscreen, Supergoop Glowscreen (paid link) SPF 40 has the most glow reports in our 544 Sephora reviews: 37% praise the glow, though 11% report pilling. Tatcha The Silk Sunscreen (paid link) and Every. Single. Face. (paid link) are each called lightweight by 27%; 3% call Tatcha greasy or shiny, against 26% for Every. Single. Face. (reviews from 2022 to 2023).

Which face sunscreen should you buy?

A face sunscreen you like is one you will wear every day, so the finish matters as much as the SPF number. We compared three sold in Amazon's premium beauty store, each with a different finish: Supergoop Glowscreen SPF 40 (glowy and tinted), Tatcha The Silk Sunscreen SPF 50 (mineral) and Supergoop Every. Single. Face. Watery Lotion SPF 50 (invisible). [A1] [A2] [A3]

Reviewers love them at the same rate, 38% to 39%, so the deciding detail is the finish. Of 245 usable Glowscreen reviews, 90 (37%) praise the glow. Of 167 for Tatcha, 45 (27%) call it lightweight and 5 (3%) greasy. Of 121 for Every. Single. Face., 33 (27%) call it lightweight but 32 (26%) greasy or shiny. [R-SEP-GS] [R-SEP-SS] [R-SEP-ES]

How we read 544 Sephora reviews

We read English Sephora reviews that do not carry Sephora's Incentivized flag: the 250 newest for Glowscreen (January 2025 to October 2026) and all 169 for Tatcha (March 2024 to October 2026). For Every. Single. Face. we read 125, from April 2022 to July 2023; its newer reviews were not read for this article, so keep its dates in mind. [R-SEP-GS] [R-SEP-SS] [R-SEP-ES]

Inside those windows we set aside 255 Incentivized reviews without reading them (12, 236 and 7), plus 4 Sephora employee reviews and 5 in other languages. We then dropped 5 from people who only tried a sample or reward mini, 2 that mention a free product, 2 with no usable text, 1 from someone who had not used it yet and 1 about a sunscreen bought for someone else. That leaves 533 usable: 245, 167 and 121. [R-SEP-GS] [R-SEP-SS] [R-SEP-ES]

Drugstore names such as CeraVe, La Roche-Posay and Neutrogena are not here because they are not sold at Sephora, where we read the reviews.

Supergoop Glowscreen is the glowy tinted sunscreen for face

Sephora's product description calls Glowscreen a glowy tinted sunscreen that hydrates and primes for makeup, with hyaluronic acid, vitamin B5, sea lavender and cocoa peptides. Amazon's listing adds niacinamide and says it suits normal to dry skin. We link the 1.7 fl oz size in Sunrise, sold by Amazon.com; Golden Hour, Dawn and Sunset are on the same page. [S1] [A1]

The glow is what reviewers praise most: 90 of 245 (37%) praise it and 39 (16%) mention the tint. Forty-four say they wear it alone as a skin tint, and 34 of them loved it. Of the 30 who wear it under makeup, 14 say it works well there and 7 report pilling. [R-SEP-GS]

It splits reviewers more than the other two: 105 (43%) gave five stars and 54 (22%) one star. Pilling (27, 11%), a greasy or shiny look (28, 11%), a shade or shimmer that was wrong for them (21, 9%) and a packaging problem or separated formula (32, 13%) are the common complaints. [R-SEP-GS]

Tatcha The Silk Sunscreen is the mineral sunscreen for face with the fewest greasy reports

Sephora's product description calls it a weightless SPF 50 mineral sunscreen with KLEAIR zinc oxide, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and silk extract, free of synthetic fragrance. Amazon's listing says it is water- and sweat-resistant and non-comedogenic. We link the 50 ml full size, sold by Tatcha. [S2] [A2]

Feel is where it stands out: 45 of 167 (27%) call it lightweight, 26 (16%) not greasy and only 5 (3%) greasy or shiny, and 32 (19%) say it leaves no white cast. Twenty-three (14%) say it works well under makeup. Of 14 reviewers with sensitive skin, 9 loved it and 8 say it left no white cast. [R-SEP-SS]

Its weak spot is the packaging: 33 (20%) report a problem with the tube or pump, leaking or a separated formula. Price comes up for 25 (15%), 13 (8%) found it drying, and 3 of the 6 reviewers with deep skin tones saw a white cast. [R-SEP-SS]

See Tatcha The Silk Sunscreen SPF 50 (50 ml) on Amazon (paid link) · This link opens the 50 ml full size sold by Tatcha; 17 reviewers (10%) say the formula, scent or packaging changed, so it may differ from older photos.

Every. Single. Face. is a light daily sunscreen for face, if shine does not bother you

Sephora's product description calls it a universal, undetectable daily chemical sunscreen with a cooling feel, non-comedogenic and water- and sweat-resistant for 40 minutes. We link the 1.7 fl oz size, sold by Amazon.com. [S3] [A3]

Its share of lightweight reports matches Tatcha's (33 of 121, 27%), and its no-white-cast share is about the same (24, 20%, against 19% for Tatcha). Forty-seven (39%) loved it, and 11 of the 16 who wear it under makeup say it works there. [R-SEP-ES]

The trade-off is shine: 32 (26%) call it greasy or shiny, including 7 of the 11 with combination skin, and 15 (12%) say it stung their eyes, the most of the three. Remember these reviews run from April 2022 to July 2023. [R-SEP-ES]

See Supergoop! Every. Single. Face. Watery Lotion SPF 50 (1.7 fl oz) on Amazon (paid link) · This link opens the 1.7 fl oz size sold by Amazon.com; the reviews we read for it date from April 2022 to July 2023.

How each face sunscreen feels, according to the reviews

Tatcha and Every. Single. Face. read as the light, watery pair (27% each call them lightweight), while Glowscreen reads as a dewy tint (9% lightweight, 37% glowy). For a sunscreen with no white cast, Every. Single. Face. (20%) and Tatcha (19%) get similar praise; it comes up far less for Glowscreen (4%). [R-SEP-GS] [R-SEP-SS] [R-SEP-ES]

As a sunscreen under makeup, Glowscreen has the most pilling reports (11% of its reviewers, and 7 of the 30 who wear it under makeup), against 3% for Tatcha and 2% for Every. Single. Face. Breakouts are similar for all three (6% to 7%), and skin irritation (stinging, burning, redness or rash) is rare (2% to 3%). [R-SEP-GS] [R-SEP-SS] [R-SEP-ES]

Which face sunscreen to buy, and when to skip it

For a glow or a light skin tint, choose Supergoop Glowscreen, picked in your shade, but skip it if pilling under makeup is a dealbreaker (11% report it). For a mineral sunscreen that few reviewers call greasy, choose Tatcha The Silk Sunscreen, unless packaging problems would annoy you. [R-SEP-GS] [R-SEP-SS]

Something watery and invisible: Every. Single. Face., but skip it if shine bothers you (26% call it greasy or shiny, including 7 of the 11 with combination skin) or your eyes water easily. [R-SEP-ES]
