Review Summary

Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen SPF 40 has revolutionized sunscreen with its completely invisible, weightless formula that works beautifully under makeup. The clear gel texture glides on smoothly and absorbs instantly, leaving absolutely no white cast regardless of skin tone—a game-changer for deeper complexions. The formula is oil-free and provides a subtle blurring effect that minimizes pores and fine lines, functioning as both sunscreen and makeup primer. The reef-safe, chemical sunscreen filters provide broad-spectrum SPF 40 protection without any of the typical sunscreen drawbacks—no greasiness, no pilling, no interference with makeup. The formula is also fragrance-free and suitable for sensitive skin. Makeup applies beautifully on top and lasts longer with this primer-like base. However, the completely clear formula makes it difficult to ensure even coverage, and it's easy to miss spots. The price point is very high for the small bottle size (1.7 oz), making daily full-face application expensive. The pump also dispenses quite a bit of product, making it easy to use more than intended. Despite the cost, for those who've struggled to find a sunscreen that works under makeup, Unseen Sunscreen is worth the investment.
