Reviews

Never again

"Never again"

— Suzy M. (1/5)

Day cream

"I have stopped using it ; it is thick and I can barely squeeze it out of the tube"

— Cynthia W. (1/5)

Smooth and silky

"The fragrance is lovely and applying it is relatively easy. It initially looks white on applying to dry skin but with a little gentle working it quickly absorbs to my skin colour and leaves my skin feeling really smooth and silky. - Team Member"

— Chandrika M. (5/5)

Evolution Age Defence SPF30

"I was under the impression I was purchasing a moisturising day cream with zinc spf that would absorb nicely into the skin without a white sheen remaining…unfortunately instead I got a full on thick sunscreen that requires a hand workout just to get it out of the tube and just about pulls my face off trying to get it rubbed in. Would NOT recommend this product at all, if you just want sunscreen (which is what this feels like) there are far cheaper zinc options available that do a good job and have appropriate bottles to get the cream out!"

— Rebecca K. (1/5)

Evolu Age Defence Protective Cream.

"Really disappointed as I can hardly get it out of the tube. It is so thick to spread it almost damages the skin on the back of my hands. . in fact I don't use it for that reason. . especially for the face which is what I bought it for."

— Robynne E. (3/5)

A great underestimated cream

"Reading the reviews I do get the comments 'too white' or 'too thick' however I think the customers that buy this cream know that a natural cream with SPF30 (yes zinc oxide is a natural mineral) is essential sun care over summer, that's the priority over other cream preferences. If you are just a little more patient by adding moisturiser and foundation you would never know you have it on - except you do when you don't burn! I believe in this product and it totally deserves the award. Its hard to get a high SPF facial cream. Enjoy"

— Amanda (4/5)

SPF cream a little too thick

"Great ingredients to protect skin. A little too thick for my liking"

— Narelle N. (3/5)

Evolu Protective Day Cream SPF30

"My first impression was that this cream was very thick but using it over a serum and dotting it on, allowing to warm then blending in has worked. The initial whiteness of the zinc totally disappears, my skin initially feels slightly sticky but that disappears as well. I can use makeup over this cream. It has been an effective sunblock for my face, neck and backs of my hands over the summer and I like that it is free of sunscreen chemicals (apart from the zinc). I will use again during the summer, but prefer a face cream that glides on more smoothly."

— Val E. (4/5)

thick and clunky; impossible to get off; disgusting.

"Cream was extremely difficult to put on and made my skin several shades lighter. I've used several zinc oxide sunscreens in the past but this one is impossible to get off at night. Even several scrubbings with micellar water and facewash couldn't remove the icky feeling from my face. In the end I had to resort to using olive oil, which worked perfectly but unfortunately also made my skin very oily and gross in the process. Would not recommend; extremely bad product."

— Even C. (1/5)

protective day cream spf, EVOLU

"Thick white layer, feels like clay . Not easily absorbed into the skin. Facial skin feels heavy and sticky. It's not worth paying that much for this cream compared to La Roche-Posey cream."

— Milda B. (1/5)
