I’m so impressed with this sunscreen. I’ve struggled for years trying to find one that doesn’t give white cast, can withstand New Zealand sun, doesn’t sting my eyes and sits good under make up. And I’ve finally found it! Stoked with this
Loving using Glowguard as the final step in my morning routine, it is super lightweight, not a hint of greasy or chalky spf. A definite repurchase for me.
I didn’t mean to become emotionally attached to a sunscreen… but here we are 😭✨
I’m on my second bottle of GLOWGUARD and already mentally adding a third to cart. It started as a cute little face + neck SPF moment… and somehow turned into me slathering it everywhere… because it’s that AMAZING.
It’s officially Skincare-GLOWGUARD-makeup. The glow?? Unreal.
Also… my boyfriend??? Secretly obsessed. Like sir why are you using my sunscreen on vacation like it’s communal?? Caught in 4K.
10/10 product. 12/10 marketing. The bottle is so cute. I’m fully obsessed.
I am really impressed with Glow Guard. I love the texture and it is wonderful under makeup. My only minor issue would be with the pipette not drawing up enough of the product at once. I will definitely buy this product again.
Glowguard SPF50 has become my absolute go to daily sunscreen. As someone with sensitive skin at increased melanoma risk (and as a biochemist) I am picky about sunscreens and evaluate the ones I use carefully for safety, SPF testing and transparency about ingredients. I love that this provides a very high degree of broad spectrum UV protection and is water resistant yet isn’t greasy, doesn’t irritate my skin or cause breakouts, is very light and absorbs incredibly quickly without leaving any residue. Unlike other SPF50 sunscreens I’ve tried, it also works well under my foundation with no separation or pilling. I appreciate the detailed information about all the ingredients and that the product has been independently tested by Consumer NZ labs, and conforms to NZ, Aus and Korean sunscreen standards. I bought some for my daughters and they both love it. Highly recommend.
