Works for Indian/brown skin!
I haven't found any reviews or videos of this product being used on Indian/brown skin so I wanted to put in this review. I am not the darkest Indian out there but I would say I am medium to light when it comes to Indian skin tone.
If you have any experience in mineral sunscreen, you know that even the slightest white cast is really a problem on skin of color. After trying Drunk Elephant Umbra Sheer, Cotz primer, and Bare Republic (from Target)- all of which gave white casts and distinct sunscreen smells, I finally decided to try a higher range sunscreen which was this Colorscience one. I am so happy to finally find a product that doesn't pill and actually blends into my skin even if I apply a good 1/4 teaspoon amount.
MAKE SURE you actually wait 10 minutes for the product to sink in and then it will completely disappear and there's no smell! It is not a matte finish and gives me a slight moisturizing effect. I do not look oily though (my skin is normal, neither dry or oily). I also love that it gives the tiniest bit of coverage. It is nowhere near a cc cream or a sheer foundation, but I really enjoy wearing this alone rather than going completely makeup-less.
