Reviews

The best on the market, especially for clear skin goals

"Carbon theory had transformed my skin. I used to be in so much pain from cystic acne, then I found carbon theory. This SPF50+ keeps my face and neck protected, looking plump and dewy with no whitecast or heaviness. I love that I can go makeup-free or knowing my skin is protected when I have a full BEAT. Perfect sized bottle to travel with, fits in your makeup bag or pocket so you can keep your skin safe! I love it!"

Sting free

"This sunscreen is the first to not sting my eyes, been using it for a few years now and I love it. White cast may be an issue for some people as I am really pale I don't mind. Seems to be okay for acne prone skin too"

— Cerys G. (5/5)

Outstanding

"Such an amazing brand, they’ve really changed how my skin looks and I cant express how happy I am that Ive chosen Carbon Theory. They are certainly doing a superb job at boosting confidence of many women like us who struggle with skin imperfections! Highly recommended."

— Layla M. (5/5)

Great

"Great. Good texture. Fragrance free and non irritating"

— Sally M. (5/5)

Leaves skin greasy

"Whilst I love this product whilst on holiday as I don't burn & I don't get acne with it, I cannot use it everyday as it leaves my skin very greasy.. Its also very watery, could definitely do with being thicker"

— Zoe C. (3/5)

Leaves a white cast

"This product leaves a white cast. Even though the consistency is nice, i wouldnt buy it again as it takes ages to make sure i dont look like casper before i leave the house. Would not recommend to people of colour. (I'm asian)"

— Semrina A. (3/5)

Nice but leaves a white cast

"I’m a white person but I don’t have very fair skin. In foundation terms I have light skin. The SPF leaves a white cast sadly. Otherwise it’s really nice, if a bit watery. It’s moisturising and doesn’t contain perfume or alcohol. I’m on Roaccutane so it’s great for sensitive skin."

— P (3/5)

A great spf facial cream

"Best spf moisturiser I've used. Its consistency suprised me, not chalky or greasy which I have found with many past spf moisturisers, neither of which work well on my dry but hormonal acne prone skin, but this is great. A little goes a long way, as with all their products I've used so far. Sits nicely as a base under my make up too. Will buy again 🙂"

— Hannah E. (5/5)

"Did not like this on my skin at all"

— Farzana (2/5)

Q&A

I would like to buy, do you have plastic free containers? 😬: Hey Elena, the bottle for our SPF is made of plastic, however it's very easily and widely recyclable, so please make sure that you recycle the bottle once you're finished with it!
Am I able to wear this SPF every day under make up?: Hey Fiona, yes you can!
Do you still have to moisturise? If so, do you apply the sunscreen after moisturiser?: Hey Jayne, yes, you can still use the moisturiser, and we'd recommend applying the SPF after using the moisturiser!
