It doesn't have the sticky, gritty feeling that sunscreens often have, and it doesn't dry out. It's not heavy to apply, so it's stress-free. It has a slight citrus scent, but it's not too strong, so it doesn't bother me even when I wear a mask. It seems to have a corrective effect that slightly reduces dullness and gives a glow. It's best to think of it as having almost no tone-up effect. It doesn't leave a white cast. It goes well with any foundation I apply on top, and I've had no problems using it so far.
