Review: Best sunscreen for Kanaloa - I had the chance to test out the Face Republic Purity Sun Essence yesterday at the beach, and I must say I'm thrilled with the results. The sunscreen is incredibly light and not oily and easy absorbing which made it a joy to wear. As someone who's passionate about Indigenous knowledge and environmental care, I appreciate that the sunscreen is reef-safe, cruelty-free, and vegan. Respecting Kanaloa, the Hawaiian god of the sea, and I'm glad this product aligns with my values. I try to be mindful of the ingredients that go into the ocean, and it's reassuring to know that this sunscreen is eco-friendly while also providing excellent sun protection. The balance between being environment-friendly and non-sticky with no white cast is impressive, and I'm sure I'll be using this sunscreen for a long time. I highly recommend the Face Republic Purity Sun Essence to anyone who's looking for a high-quality, environmentally friendly sunscreen that's also vegan and cruelty-free. Not only is it a great product, but it's also aligned with my values, which makes it even better.
Review: New Favorite - i've been wearing sunscreen faithfully since the pandemic so i've tried MANY. this one is now in my top two of ALL time. when i first started using it i had a slight itch that lasted for a few minutes (barely noticeable though) but i guess my skin was just adjusting to it. it's not greasy at ALL and i actually think it's been helping my oily skin out. since its summer the lightweight feel is great and refreshing. i actually get excited when it's time to re-apply!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Non irritating and doesn't dry out my skin !
*by M***. on April 29, 2025*

It's a moisturizing light weight gentle sunscreen great for dry sensitive acne prone skin and all skin types. It leaves no white cast feels very refreshing and cooling and has a light scent from the extracts in the ingredients list it's fragrance free and it leaves a satin finish It be perfect if it was a tad more moisturizing and gave a more dewy or glowy or radiant finish imo but overall I absolutely love this sunscreen and I highly recommend it. It didn't bother or irritate .y skin or eyes ahd didn't cause any breakouts even on my currently overly sensitive flaired up acne prone skin my skin type is normal to dry in the warmer months and dry to extra dry and I'm 31 so my skin is becoming more mature I alo have eczema psoriasis and acne prone sensitive skin plus tons of allergies and my skin I'd no longer agreeing with a ton of my once holy grail sunscreens and skin care products . So I bought this sunscreen to try and I'm happy to say it's definitely going to be one of my go to water resistant reef safe facial sunscreenscand I'd definitely recommend to anyone who has similar skin conditions and concerns .
