I've always been a stickler for sunscreen, but my husband, with his dry skin, always found it a chore. That's why I was thrilled when I discovered Brickell's Element Defense Moisturizer with SPF 45.
Why it works for him:
No More White Cast: I was tired of seeing that telltale white cast from other sunscreens. This one disappears into his skin, leaving no trace.
Feels Great: He actually enjoys putting it on! It's lightweight and absorbs quickly, so he doesn't feel greasy.
Serious Sun Protection: With SPF 45, I have peace of mind knowing his skin is shielded from the sun's harmful rays, even on long days outdoors.
Hydration Boost: His skin definitely looks smoother and feels softer since he started using it.
Bonus:
I've even been sneaking a little bit for myself! It's gentle enough for my skin, and I love the subtle, natural scent.
Overall:
If your husband (or partner) needs a little encouragement in the skincare department, this moisturizer is a fantastic option. It's practical, effective, and feels like a little bit of luxury.

Detailed review. Good product. Most will see this as sunscreen.
SUMMATION:A fast-absorbing moisturizer which exceeds recommended minimum SPF content, from a reputable company. Decent absorption speed, product may be seen as “runny” when used. Minimal noticeable odor. Most people would see this as “sunscreen” first and foremost but could certainly be used as a daily moisturizer if desired.DETAILED:Delivery and Tracking: As expected.Shipping Packaging: As expected.Product Packaging: Meets or exceeds Amazon’s “Compact by Design” certification. White lettering with sleek black matte finish and texture makes for clear reading and easier gripping. The tube itself is not difficult to squeeze to dispense product. Cap is easily opened, but not so much that there is risk of accidental leakage/spilling if properly secured. Users may experience some spillage into the cap if the top isn’t wiped clean after usage.Product Overview: To be sure, this is more a “sunscreen” in the classic sense. It can be used as a moisturizer as well but should be approached as a sunblock. The size of the tube, look and feel of the product itself along with the SPF and description of how many applications to expect are more in line with a day at the beach/golf course than a day-to-day face moisturizer/sunblock. Vegan and cruelty free are certainly a plus.Look and Feel: The product itself is as expected, not greasy or oily however the tradeoff is that the consistency is a little more on the “runny” side. I did not personally find this to be an issue. Because this is first and foremost a sunscreen, users should expect a light “sunscreen odor”. This mostly faded for me after a few minutes. No other noticeable odors.Application and Absorption: I am using this primarily as a facial moisturizer/protectant. The consistency of the product made application easy and uniform with minimal effort. Initially there was some “whitish haziness” which faded quickly with some very light rubbing. While absorption is not “complete and total,” in about 1-2 minutes it was barely noticeable other than a light “shine” and a lingering faint odor of sunscreen. 30-60 minutes later this remained mostly unchanged. The SPF for this product is 45 and while higher than many other facial-only products (SPF20) it should be noted the American Academy of Dermatology recommends an SPF of at least 30.One criticism would be that when combined with water or perspiration, the area applied does become noticeably slick. In my opinion, it does not differ from any other product similar to this one and is in line with expectations of other “light/non-greasy” products. It should be noted that the product is billed as “water resistant” not “waterproof.”Overall, the combination of the ingredients including Zinc Oxide, Aloe Vera, Green Tea and Sunflower oil along with the quantity for the price paired with the environmental consciousness and Brickell reputation makes this a high recommendation for those looking for a higher SPF moisturizer.Recommended.**UPDATE**Four days later, now that I have gotten used to the product itself, I personally think it’s great and use small amounts with another oil-free moisturizer. The mild “sunscreen odor” for me dissipates (or I have learned to ignore it) pretty quickly and with the idea that “less is more” when applying to the face, the product absorbs and blends in pretty quickly as well.Again, most will see this as “sunscreen” not a facial/body moisturizer.

Pflegende Sonnencreme die den Unterschied macht

Gerade im Gesicht finde ich das extrem unangenehm, wenn ich dauernd das Gefühl habe eine Maske auf dem Gesicht zu haben, der Schweiß über das Gesicht läuft und die Sonnenbrille rutscht.
Die Brickell Sonnencreme ist geruchlos, zieht schnell ein und Schützt meine Haut. Mit einem Lichtschutzfaktor von 45 eignet sie sich auch uneingeschränkt für den Urlaub. Keine Rückstände und ein sehr angenehmes Gefühl auf der Haut.
Zusätzlich pflegt sie dabei auch noch die Haut. Es ist eine Feuchtigkeits- und Anti-Aging Creme, die der Haut Feuchtigkeit gibt und Falten minimiert. Ganz besonders angenehm in der prallen Sonne. Sie Haut fühlt sich entspannt an während sie mich vor den Sonnenstrahlen schützt. Eine super Kombi, die mir erspart noch weitere Pflegeprodukte mit in den Urlaub zu nehmen. Dabei besteht sie laut Hersteller nur aus natürlichen Inhaltsstoffen.
Klar gehört die Creme nicht zu den günstigen Produkten, dabei darf man aber nicht vergessen, dass es sich hier nicht nur um eine Sonnencreme handelt. Ich nutze sie hautsächlich für das Gesicht und die Arme. Somit kann man damit sehr gut haushalten und man kommt eine lange Zeit damit aus.
Für mich ein Gewinn.
