My Review

As I said at the top, as soon as I saw this product, I was desperate to try it out, and I really haven’t been disappointed. I’m a fan.

There’s huge hype about mineral sunscreens right now. If you find a good one, (Ultra Violette Future Fluid SPF 50+ Superlight Mineral Skinscreen, Kate Somerville HydraKate Illuminating SPF 50+ Drops, Kosas DreamBeam Comfy Smooth Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 30) they are great, but I think that chemical sunscreens also have their place. The Kopari Sunglaze Sheer Setting Mist Sunscreen SPF 50 is a brilliant example of a really easy to use one.

You just need to shake it up and mist it over.

So this is a setting mist-style sunscreen with SPF 50 and broad-spectrum protection. It’s designed to go over makeup, refresh your skin throughout the day, and add that gorgeous dewy glow.

How It Feels & Wears

It’s so lovely to use. The mist is super fine (no chunky droplets messing with your base), and it gives the most gorgeous hydrated glow. It doesn’t disturb my makeup and I think it actually makes my skin look better.

It’s so easy to top up because it doesn’t make skin look greasy and it dries down nicely. The scent is really pleasant – beachy and summery – although if you are sensitive to fragrance, you may need to be careful that this isn’t too much for you.

Pros and Cons

I thought a round up of pros and cons would be useful!

PROS

• SPF 50 Broad-Spectrum Protection – well-balanced combination of chemical filters
• Makeup-friendly setting mist – sets without disturbing your makeup
• Sheer, glowy finish – gives a healthy, non-greasy glow
• Added antioxidants – includes Vitamin C & E to help defend against free radicals
• Fine mist application – spritz, no chunky droplets
• Hydrating Formula – with hyaluronic acid, polyglutamic acid, adds moisture, not weight.
• Perfect for top-ups – no mess, no white cast, no hands required

CONS

• Contains Alcohol Denat – can be drying for sensitive or dry skin types with frequent use (though it’s well-buffered with hydrators)
• Essential Oils & Fragrance Component – Lime, orange, and spearmint oils (plus limonene, geraniol, etc.) may irritate reactive or allergy-prone skin

Final Thoughts

If you’re looking for a high-protection SPF that plays beautifully with makeup and adds an actual glow, Kopari Sunglaze is a total star. It’s certainly an SPF mist I’d feel confident recommending even to those who hate layering sunscreen.

It’s makeup-safe, hydrating, and gives that soft-filter glow without being heavy or tacky. I wouldn’t use this as my main SPF as I definitely prefer to use something a bit thicker to work into my skin as a base, but it is ideal for regular top ups throughout the day, and is one I will certainly be keeping in my handbag.
