This sunscreen is great under makeup for dry skin. My foundation goes on my dry skin smoothly without a primer. Also, by itself, this sunscreen doesn’t leave a white cast even after repeated applications throughout the day, but a dewy sheen— perfect for a makeup free day! It is the best sunscreen I have tried on my dry, sensitive skin. It would be a perfect product for me, if the packaging can be made more compact to take up less room in my TSA quart size bag.
