SPF 30 Brightening Moisturizer

This would be great for someone with dry skin. It was just a little too oily for my Combination/Oily skin. And I only use a pea size amount. My husband always thinks I'm sweating when I wear this. But I like that it has SPF and eliminates that extra step. Plus, it does not break me out.

This is amazing! I have used this moisturizer for three weeks and can see an incredible change in my hyperpigmentation.

Great formula, not ashy or excessively heavy and it helps to reduce my hyperpigmentation

I love this moisturizer! A little of this product goes a long way. With that being said, I noticed some instability issues. It took me a while to get through the product, and before I could it started to separate and was no longer homogenous. I’m definitely going to purchase again because I’ve not found another that works well with my skin but I would recommend working on ways to extend its shelf-life. If you need a formulation scientist, feel free to contact me :)

Great moisturizer. Unfortunately, the SPF makes my face look shiny/greasy. I have yet to find a SPF product that doesn't react the same way with my skin so I guess it's just my luck.

I use the Brightening Moisturizer as a sunscreen. It does not leave a white cast on my face, is not shiny or oily. I noticed that blemishes from pimples faded quickly once I started using the cream. It also does not sting my eyes when I perspire, which is a plus. It is expensive compared to other products, but I only apply a pea size amount to my face so it is cost effective. It feels as though there is a light coating on my skin but I do not wear makeup, so to a makeup wearer it may have the feeling of a foundation product. I will purchase it again.

I love the way Bolden's skincare products have helped to heal my skin.

I have acne-prone skin and usually very sensitive to products containing SPF however this product hasn't broken out my skin, my dark scars are fading. I use this cream daily especially on my "no make up" days and it gives a slight glow to the skin. I definitely highly recommend this product.

I have extremely oily skin and this product makes it more evident. I do love the fact that none of these products caused any outbreaks on my sensitive skin. I will never use any other skin care line because this one is the best one I've found. I just don't like the greasiness of the sunscreen.

It was great. Saw improvements in about a month! Definitely buying again!

I am glad I found this product, it brightens my skin and leaves it looking radiant without the ashy look that most SPF products do.

Light and pleasant scented formula. Blends on well without white residue which I love.

My skin certainly felt moisturized and I didn’t get any sunburn. It was really easy to run in and there were no annoying white streaks or residue which was great. I’m just not in love with how greasy it made my forehead feel.

I see a big improvement in my skin. Someone nicely told me that it was too hot for make up, to which I agreed. "You don't have on any"? No mam, straight skin

I love the smell and how nice it feel putting it on your face. And it also adds a glow to your skin.

Does what it says. Doesn't leave a white cast. Like the pump, controls the dispense. Wish it came in a bigger size.

Love the SPF Brightening Moisturizer. I pair this with a minute drop of Grapeseed Oil that adds a nice glow w/o being shiny and no chalky buildup.

Very lightweight, does not smear, cause acne, or leave residue like a lot of sunblocks do. Easy to wear even under makeup.

I absolutely love the sunscreen product. My face has hyper pigmentation. This product is what I need to protect my face from this North Carolina sun which is extreme in the summer months. I hope by summers end my face will be more even toned.

I do like this product and would’ve given it all stars ⭐️or “love it” but for the texture of it. It’s a little too thick for me , but not in a bad way where most ppl would think so, because there’s several other products that have this texture. It doesn’t feel thick on the face, just in texture. However, a little goes a long way too!! Overall and more importantly, I love the results from using it so far. I’ve used it for maybe three weeks and it has given me a glow if you will, that I’ve never had with other products. I noticed it the second day of using it!! Not only that, My 17yo daughter also noticed. She said, “your skin looks good today”. I’d noticed it myself that day, so when she said it, i knew I wasn’t just “imagining” that I was glowing. Also, I’ve applied makeup over it as well, and it doesn’t interfere with the makeup. In fact, it makes my makeup look better! So, I’ll end with saying that I would definitely recommend this product for black women (I’m speaking as a black woman), because of the spf30, the glow that brightens your natural skin, and lastly, to support a black owned company that provides great customer service, and a product that delivers what it claims!! Thank you, Jackie

Love this product but got a bad pump in the bottle so it doesn't come out very well.

A bit oily and the perfume is too strong. However, the fact that it doesn’t leave my skin ashy allows me to overlook these issues. If this could be resolved this would be a perfect product.

Lightweight formula leaves my skin looking and feeling smooth and radiant

Knowing about Bolden fell into my lap like fate. I found out about through Watching youtube and i was sold. I was very reluctant to purchase a spf30 sunscreen scaree that id be ashy&greasy. But that is not the case with Bolden's sunscreen. I make sure to put it on each day i go out in this hot atlanta sun to ensure the skin on my face dont get any darker then the rest of my body. It has worked very well and i can say i would surely purchase again.

It broke me out alot

Okay I will be completely honest to say that the shipping on these products took forever, but was it worth the wait? I can say yes. Few breakout , but my skin has been glowing since I’ve been using the cleanser and spf

Awesome smell!

I’m currently enjoying the SPF 30 moisturizer. At first I was hesitant to try the moisturizer because it does have SPF, and I learned my lesson in the past that SPF with moisturizer tends to break me out. However I thought to myself to give Bolden a try because it’s For Us, By Us. I’m glad I did give bolden a chance. My skin is glowing!!! I will be buying more products in the future.

The only thing I didn't like was how strong the scent of the SPF was.I am not a fan of such a strong scent, especially not something going on my face daily.

No white residue or weird sheen on my brown skin .

I had struggled with adult acne for years. Now that I have been using Bolden for about a year now. I have not experienced random out breaks like before, and my skin feels so good. I highly recommend this company to everyone I know with similar skin to mine. Plus the company itself has upheld a high level of customer satisfaction for me. (I did not receive my original shipment and Bolden made sure I received my replacement package. I am truly grateful that Bolden is a trustworthy vendor.) I appreciate your candor as a company, and the quality of your products.

I love how sheer this moisturizer is.

I won’t buy again

Unfortunately, the product isn't beneficial for oily skin. I have breakouts all along my cheeks and forehead. I really wanted this product to work. The consistency is quite nice and the smell is alright. Really sad this product didn't work for my skin.

I wanted to like this product particularly because it has some brightening aspect. However, I found this product hard to use because 1-2 pumps left my skin feeling tight. But 3 pumps left my skin looking greasy, especially my forehead. But generally, moisturizers that contain SPF tend to leave my skin looking too shiny, so I don't think it was this product specifically. I'll keep experimenting with it, but I will likely stick to using a separate SPF.

I love this moisturizer! It is not heavy or oily, and even though it has SPF protection (which was the main selling point for me) it does not leave a white cast/build up on my face like other face sunscreens. It absorbs wonderfully into my skin and feels like I have nothing on, but my skin is very smooth and soft. Great product!

I have been using this moisturizer for a week now and I love it. Lightweight, but effective. Didn't irritate my eyes although it has sunscreen in it .

My skin had cleared up in a matter of weeks of using the trial size Clarifying Cleanser and Brightening Moisturizer. I will be purchasing the full size bottle of Cleanser soon.

I watched Evelyn on the Internets' review of it, and that's why I chose to buy this particular moisturizer and sunscreen. It rubs in perfectly, and I don't feel it heavy on my face. I can also feel how much more moisturized my skin feels, and it feels like my face is protected from the dry winds all day. I really enjoy this product!

It does it's job as an SPF and is moisturizing. I have oily skin and tend to have to blot during the summer but my skin didn't get shiny with this! Also, now that it's winter while my skin doesn't get dry, I find that when I layer the Vanilla oil under this, my skin is perfectly moisturized!

I was surprised that it was a pump product. That’s a first for me. When I saw how little came out, I had thoughts how to ration it until I could buy more. The pump is a hit or miss. When it works it’s great. When it doesn’t, unscrewing the cap to get access is a non starter. The product itself is phenomenal. I do not have a white cast on my face or purple undertones. I can put on sunscreen in my mirror and smile afterwards. That’s huge for me.

I really love this moisturizer! I've tried a countless amount of moisturizers for my dry skin, and I'm very happy with this one. With past moisturizers, I usually sweat them off, but that is not the case with this one. This one is lightweight and I feel like my whole face is moisturized. I don't sweat it off and that is a huge plus! Also I like that you don't have to use a huge amount of this moisturizer to achieve complete coverage. A little goes a long way with this product. So happy with this product, especially with it being from a Black-owned business. I will be a returning customer!

I absolutely love this line and it is all I use.

I purchased this item for vacation to protect my skin. it was easy to use and very moisturizing however, i did find the formula to be stickier than i usually like.

I only started using this and I've stared to see results. I love the way it keeps my face feeling velvety. I've purchased the whole regime. I'm hoping it would be a pleasant experience

Finally, a sunscreen that doesn't leave a white chalky look to my skin. Thank you.

I really enjoy how light the sunscreen is. It has a pleasant scent, and blends in extremely easily. The only issue I have is, it doesn’t play well with other products. What I mean by this is, on bare skin, it gives a subtle glow to the skin. Your skin looks radiant and healthy. When I used it with an essence, however small the amount, my face became oily and shiny. I even tried to layer murad invisiblur sunscreen on top to lessen the shine and it was completely ineffective. I’ll definitely repurchase this sunscreen, but I’ll have to travel with blotting paper.

Excellent product! Not heavy or cakey on my skin, nor does my face looks greasy. I defintely recommend.

Love it. Use it with the toner and it works wonders. I remember some reviews complained about the smell. It's lightly there but don't bother me. Overall I use this faithfully everyday be4 I leave my home and it protects my skin from the harsh conditions. Jeeny

This sunscreen goes on smooth, sinks right in and has a matte finish. Love it!

I used this moisturizer for the first time a few days ago. Is it counterproductive to use a product that makes want to touch your face so much? My skin had a velvety, creamy feel and a nice glow. But, it wasn't greasy. The following day, I did not use the moisturizer and just used my regular shea products. The difference was quite noticeable. I love that my skin is moist and I am getting SPF protection at the same time.

I love how nicely it goes on. It doesn't have that heavy feeling nor does it leave that white cast on the skin like other products with SPF protection. Love it!

No white cast, moisturizing, and plays well with my heady duty moisturizer. Great product !

This moisturizer has beautiful ingredients. And I love the idea of a brightening moisturizer with spf. Unfortunately, I got a pimple every time that I used it.

I bought this for my daughter who is very picky about anything on her face, she loves it, not greasy, goes on light and is absolutely wonderful.

This product is great, It goes on smoothly and there is no white residue.

It absorbs well and has a great consistency

Great product This is the only sunscreen product that truly blends into my skin without leaving a white, ashy film. It's lightweight and smells good.

Not for me The product caused skin reaction around my eyes. Puffy, red, bruised.

I haven't noticed much of I haven't noticed much of a differnce as of yet, but I will continue to use bc I'm a fam of the company overall.

Great everyday Spf moisturizer This moisturizer is pretty dope. Love the healthy dose of vitamin c for brightening. Goes on smooth with no white cast as most chemical sunscreens do. I do wish it were less greasy. Shea butter although fantastic is a very rich potentially pore clogging ingredient for ALOT of people.

Not for me Pros- Great packaging Goes on clear Decent price for product Doesn’t break me out Cons- I have combination skin, and it gives me an oily look which I don’t like. If you have dry skin, this might be for you, but if you are one of those that like a matte look, this may not work for you. I won’t be repurchasing this sunscreen, I absolutely love their toner though.

AMAZING I LOVE this product. It's so nice to have a sunscreen that isn't ashy on my skin and makes my skin radiant at the same time :)

Maybe Next Time I was excited about the product, however it was too heavy for my skin. It caused me to breakout.

Great! I love the scent and how light it feels. I also like the tube it comes in, not bulky.

Great moisturizer Love, love, love this moisturizer. Great for everyday use. Wish that it came in non moisturizing form though…there are different moisturizers i like to use on different days of my cycle and i cant use this everyday.

Just what I was needed I really love this product. It goes on light and not sticky. It doesn't make my skin grayish or oily like other sunscreens. It was just what I wanted.

sunscreen for black women Goes on completely sheer. If you've been frustrated with a pasty white sheen on your brown skin, you will be satisfied to find that this moisturizer goes on amazingly sheer! Very satisfied. Light and works nicely under makeup. Will buy again!

The product I’ve been waiting for!! Love it. Use it daily....waiting for samples coupons to try other products!

Great moisturizer! Love this moisturizer. My skin is mixed oily and dry and this keeps it well hydrated without being oily. Will definitely be buying again!

Oily This is not great. While it is moisturizing it made my skin so oily that it began to make my eyes burn. It also came with a free sample of the facial cleanser. Definitely strong and not for daily use on my skin.

Love this moisturizer The moisturizer has my skin baby soft and glowing. Literally since I started using it I am getting so many compliments that I look young, my skin looks great and this is with no makeup at all just the moisturizer. I am in love with this moisturizer and it will forever be my go to.

The best for POC I live for this!!! My skin glows AND it sinks into my skin!! No white cast. My face doesn’t breakout either. I will be a return customer for sure!

Great I’m enjoying my select and I plan to purchase more.

facial toner please let me know as soon as you get this product in.
