don’t even notice it on my skin

I’ve tried the kit on my bike touring trip across the US and love it.
I’ve always had the issue that mineral sunscreen feels weird on my skin, especially when I sweat. Utu blends so easily into my skin and the stick is handy for reapplying.
Will take it with me for skiing too!

I have only been using the kit for a week, but am already loving it! I have aging, rosacea-prone skin and the Daily Moisturizer is hydrating and soothing without the chalky, white residue. I work outside and the Sunscreen Stick adds that extra protection my skin needs. Love it!

GREAT FOR WATERSPORTS!

Love this for my daily surf session out here in Hawaii where the sun does get quite strong during the middle of the day. I love how much this sunscreen moisturizers my skin while protecting it!

Impressive

I was interested in the packaging with zero plastic and the formula is nice enough. It blends into my skin so well! The lid is finicky to put back on

Luxury Skincare- only zinc face spf that doesn’t pill or leave cast

I am SO impressed with this spf daily moisturizer. Like…wow! To me, this is a true luxury skincare product. It applies so smoothly and really absorbs into skin while leaving a glow, but no pilling or white cast, unlike other high end mineral SPFs I’ve used (looking at you Alo!). Or leaves a real radiance on my skin, without a slippery silicone feeling like I get from chemical gel sunscreen or spf moisturizers. I also do not get any irritation, texture, or breakouts like I have with every single other zinc and mineral based face spf! This stuff seriously rocks. It looks, feels, and acts like skincare instead of just regular old sunblock or sport spf….and yet it is sports ready!

I tried a few products from utu and was not expecting the moisturizer to be the hero product for me but it really really is! I don’t wear face makeup, and with the utu moisturizer I don’t need to. I get all the glow I need (without the burn!)
