Glow Recipe just launched their Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Sunscreen and they sent it to me to test out. Glow Recipe is a cruelty-free company and a lot of their products are vegan. The SPF is available at stores such as Sephora, as well as the Glow Recipe website. Here is my full review of the Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Sunscreen.

Glow Recipe Sunscreen Review
I have never tried any Glow Recipe products before but seeing how hyped it is on social media, I had really high hopes for this sunscreen. I have tried dozens of sunscreens and I have never had one work so bad on me. I did my regular skincare routine as I normally would do and as soon as I applied the sunscreen, it pilled up. The only way I could get the sunscreen to not pill up is by using a heavy moisturizer underneath. This sunscreen does have a watermelon scent but I found that it went away after a few minutes and I could just smell typical sunscreen scent. However if you are sensitive to scent, this might not be the sunscreen for you. I have seen other people have success with this product. I’m not sure if it is my skin type (I have oily skin) or maybe I received a bad batch. Either way, I hope that Glow Recipe improves their formula in the future so everyone can enjoy this sunscreen.

Wow, that’s disappointing! I have a good stock of sunscreen at the moment (possibly too much LOL) and I was curious about this. I’ve never tried any of their products, and have been eyeing the brand. The Dew Drops have been popular.
I need to try the Dew Drops next!! They seem promising. I feel you about sunscreen…but is there ever too much? I go through it so fast!
