Kiehl's Since 1851 Store asked: Why did you choose this?
laura m: moving to a place with little shade and lots of sun! I'm also 30 and am continuing taking care of my skin May 22, 2013
Ivy W: Super lightweight and fluid enough that a little goes a long way. I have oily skin and this keeps my face shine free. I use this as my moisturizer in the summer. May 21, 2013
Laura C: I have fair skin and didn't want to put on a heavy SPF during the summer because its so hot. The reviews made it seem like this is the perfect solution May 18, 2013

Nichole T: I've never found another product quite as good! Unfortunately, it's not yet available in Germany -- where I live. May 2, 2013
Danielle Y: Recently went to dermotologist and found out how much sun damage I have and I was given daily lotion to whiten spots and told that a good sunblock was necessary. I read good reviews on this product and thought I would try it. May 1, 2013
Rebecca S: summer is here and kiehl's really cares for my skin well so I chose the super fluid uv defense to keep that care consistent Apr 26, 2013

Lawrence W: This is the best daily, moisturizing facial sunscreen I have ever used. It seems expensive until you realize that one large bottle can last over 6 months (even here in Southern California!). Apr 18, 2013
julie z: This is great! I use it every day. In the sun, my face never burns and my eyes never sting! I take it on every trip to the Carribean and have never been disappointed! Apr 7, 2013

Rachel S: best sun screen i've ever used. a little goes a LONG way. i've used the 1.7 EVERY DAY for the past 6 months, and am only now running out... it's thin and light, goes on easy, but dries matte. full spf coverage, and no greasy feel... Mar 18, 2013

SeoYeong M: I'm looking for sunscreen - and it shows good rating so, I ordered with hope to works for me. Feb 16, 2013

Weiwei W: I just bought the ultra facial cream and was fine that there was not a SPF in it because it's winter time and I'm inside a lot. Then I saw this product, which goes over moisturizers, and I became interested because sometimes my other moisturizers either don't have an SPF added or just isn't enough. Jan 31, 2013
Elisabeth N: This is a wonderful sunscreen and works very well under foundation. I started using Kiehl's products because I liked the All-Sport Non-Freeze Face Protector SPF 30 Sunscreen, which is no longer available. Nor is the Cross-Terrain UV-Skin Protector SPF 50. This super fluid is great, but not good enough for a day on the slopes or even walking the dog on cold days. Jan 25, 2013

A shopper asked:
What is first...Moisturizer or sun protector?
Apr 25, 2012
Elyse G:
It is a sun protector that goes over your moisturizer. It is a thin cream, more like a liquid that dries on the skin almost instantly and does not leave a greasy or wet feeling.

You want to moisturize first and wait a couple minutes to let it soak into your skin and then apply the sun protector! Hope this helps :)

Moisturizer first! It will help protect your skin from the (slightly) drying effects of the sun protector.

A shopper asked:
I wear tinted moisturizer oil free by Laura Mercer. I have oily skin. Will wearing both be too oily?
Apr 11, 2013
Ann R:
I do not think using both products will be too oily, but my skin tends toward the drier side. I loved the Super Fluid and did not find it greasy at all. It is very thin and leaves no noticeable trace to me. Good luck!

I used to use the same foundation and have oily skin as well! I found no matter foundation I wore, as long as I let the kiehl's product set before applying my foundation it was never a problem!

When you apply the defense moisturizer let it sit for a few minutes before appling your tinted moisturizer. It will make your face feel so soft, and look so smooth while protecting your skin!

i have very sensitive skin and only use Neutrogena or Kiehl's Super Fluid UV Defense SPF50 on my skin. i take the Kiehl's when i travel (which is quite often) and use the other at home. I ski and visit friends at the beach so sunscreen is very important to me. the Kiehl's is not greasy and goes on like you are not wearing anything. i have turned several people on to this who never wore sunscreen and now they won't go out without it.
i have tried almost every sunscreen product out there. and yes, even $65.00 plus brands have caused me to break out or have had allergic reactions to them. this brand i highly recommend. been using it since it came out on the market. Apr 17, 2012

Tana H:
I have been using this product for about a month and have extremely sensitive skin. I have not noticed any bad side affects at all. It is light and powdery feeling to the touch. My Kiehls representative advised me to use it as the last step in my morning facial regimine using only a small drop as though you were coating your face and neck with a drop of water. It is working well for me and has no affect on my makeup application. She also advised to use it everyday for even the lightest exposure to the sun.

Raiyn B:
This is one of the best sunscreen products for the face, and I use it daily. I have very sensitive skin, and most sunscreen products for the face cause my skin to break out. I use it prior to putting anything on my face, and then apply a light cream prior to applying my make up.

I have sensitive skin too but with no any problem to wear Kiehls Super Fluid UV Defense SPF 50+. This light weight sun block is very easy to apply and not leave white mark on your face; just like your 2nd skin.

A shopper asked:
Can this product be used in lieu of moisturizer?
Apr 10, 2013
Simone S:
Possibly. I usually put it on after I have put my moisturizer on and haven't used it on it's own. It is light and doesn't feel thick on your skin so I could see it used without a facial moisturizer.

Carole M:
In the summer, I use a serum and then the sun block because adding a moisturizer would be too heavy.
If you don't need an intense moisturizer, it might be worth a try. Apr 11, 2013

A shopper asked:
What are some of the best ways to remove the UV Defense SPF 50+ at the end of the day? My pores get clogged very easily (esp on my nose, unfortunately), and while I recently started to use MAC's makeup remover to remove my makeup (I mostly use it to clean my mascara off cuz that is pretty much all I use), is there another remover that will clean up the sunblock completely?
Jul 15, 2012
Eloise M:
So sorry not to be able to speak directly to this. I only know this is head over heels the best product of its kind. After I use it, I just clean my face as normal and have had no problems. Enjoy!

VERA D:
U use Super Fluid UV Defense SPF50+ on my face, but I mix it with my Kiehl's mosturizer and make up. I find removing it fairly easy. I use DHC deep cleansing oil followed by their olive soap. My skin is clear, clean and not too dry after this procedure.
Hope this helps. Jul 16, 2012

Heather B:
Personally, I find this sunscreen so light, that I don't notice the extra layer of product. However, Dermalogica makes a product called "pre cleanse." It is fantastic for removing sunscreen, make-up, etc, so that your facial cleanser works more efficiently. Good luck!

Sarah S asked:
Does anyone know if this product is water or sweat proof? I have it but it does not say anything on the bottle. I want to know if I should bother using it before a run or at the beach, or if it is best for walking around the city. Thanks!
Feb 26, 2013
Stella M:
I use this during the summer, as I am out in the sun from 8-16 hours. I have never checked to see if it is waterproof or not. I do sweat out there, and I will pat my face with a clean paper towel and reapply by patting it on.

I use it for the beach and have not had a problem. Of course, you should still reapply it after 2 hours just to be sure, like any sunscreen.

randy s:
i used to have dark spots and my skin can be oily in the summer. i use the super fluid uv defense spf 50 and used its predecessor for my sunscreen. i never had a problem with either. highly recommend it. the only other sunscreen i used is neutrogena but kiehl's lasts longer and use it whenever i ski or spend time at the beach. would not be without it and i have used very expensive sunscreens from dematologists as well as department stores and pharamcies. this one is my favorite.

Sharon F:
My skin is acne prone w/ scarring and bumps under the skin. In summer it is very oily/sweaty. I like super fluid spf 50 because it is light weight and imparts no shine. It leaves a dry almost powdery finish. Perfect for my skin's particular mix of problems.

is it suitable for wheatish complexion - Asian pacific origin? May 3, 2013
Heidi Q:
Yes. I'm not Asian Pacific, but I have a lot of yellow/olive undertones and have a lot of hyperpigmentation on my face. This sunscreen doesn't cause me to breakout and has a high spf for such a light weight formulation. If you were to go higher in spf it tends to be heavier with a white cast (from my experience). I really like this sunscreen.
