The best

— Abo R. (5/5)

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

— Sally M. (5/5)

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)

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!
