Not greasy. Give a glow
Meghan G.
I bought the Bolden crème, as well as a more expensive cream from a more well known company. The Bolden crème is, hands down, my favorite. It is one of the few moisturizers with SPF that don’t cause me to break out (the cream from the other company leaves me with blemishes). It is soft and doesn’t feel greasy/oily. I am fair skinned and the sun “is not my friend” so I am so glad I found this. I highly recommend!!!
Wanda F.
It's definitely not oily; best on combo and/or oily skin, not dry skin. Goes on smooth and spf protection is great.
Bonita W.
I really loved this moisturizer initially, but the bottle it comes in is weird and seems impractical. Once it started running low the consistency changed and all I was getting was a weird liquid, not the actual cream. One day I went outside for a few hours after using it in this consistency, and my face was visibly red, like I’d burned a bit. The design also makes it difficult to get what’s left in the tube. I want to purchase more, but I definitely hope this gets addressed, because it could be a reason I would discontinue use. I feel like I’m not getting full use of the product, and therefore not getting the best value for my money.
Rafi C.
Has the formula changed? This feels different than it did before. My face feels a bit dry, rather than moisturized. My face doesn’t have the same glow as it had with my prior purchase.
Barbara A.
Love how it moisturizes and make my skin glow !
Chondra W.
IN LOVE. Ive never been excited to put on my moisturizer in the the morning but this one does it. It feels creamy, light and protective. I got my wife and my mom hooked on this cream. I will tell everyone I can to give this a try.
Amarachi O.
Really love the texture and it rubs in pretty well. Very slight white cast though it does rub in well.
Ginger P.
I’m soon to be 58 and could never find the right facial products for my oily skin. Now I’ve inherited my grandmother's dark spots on my cheeks ( I love my grandmother who is in heaven and her cheeks) I smile every time I look into the mirror. My skin tone under my eyes has darkened. Bolden is the only product to clear up my oily skin and it toned down the darkness under my eyes and on my cheeks. It has made my skin feel like silk! I love Bolden!
Tracy H.
This is my favorite moisturizer. It makes my skin so soft and the glow is life changing.
Jennifer A.
A little goes a long way. This is my favorite products. Melanin skin needs spf too
Karen A.
It's hydrating without heaviness or a greasy feel. No white/gray cast to it.
Reniqua B.
Love it!
Priscilla A.
Too greasy for my liking and my acne prone skin
Nenji Y.
Have always loved Boldens moisturizer! It’s my go-to daily moisturizer- love the spf, love the glow and love how hydrated it makes my skin feels!
Elysia-Ari B.
I swear by this moisturizer. It does exactly what it says it does without leaving a white-cast. On a good day it’ll even leave me with a nice glow (not oily shine). Been using it for 2 years and I don’t plan on stopping!
Karen C.
Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience with the spf moisturizer. I have oily skin and products that have oil in them cause me to break out.
Sandra B.
The smell is not pleasant.
Andrea H.
Love it!!
Angel r.
Love that it doesn’t leave white residue
Michelle M.
I searched for a sunscreen/sunblock with no shine. The hunt was intense and after my last purchase I gave up.
Then I found Bolden!
The SPF 30 Brightening Moisturizer is a find that I am so so happy I found. No white cast, smooth skin, and hyperpigmentation fighter.
I recommend the SPF 30 Brightening Moisturizer!!!
Ro G.
I was put on to Bolden products by my dermatologist. I was tired of being a 40 something year old with acne, dry skin, and uneven skin tone. She suggested I use the Bolden toner along with azelaic acid from another brand. My first purchases were the toner and the clay mask. A couple of months later I snatched up the face wash and soon it was followed by the moisturizer and the night serum. All I can say is I'm never using another brand of face products ever again. My face is definitely much more even toned. I still have the occasional hormonal breakouts but it's definitely not as frequent as before. I love how each of the product feels on my skin and how a little goes a long way. I'm even following the recommendation to wash my face for 60 seconds. I have been telling my friends about these products every opportunity I get. I love them and am forever sold. Thank you Ladies
Robin D.
This sunscreen not only protects your skin but it also moisturizers your skin . It’s texture is so smooth it blends into your skin in seconds with no residue leftover on your skin.
I combined the sunscreen with the Shea oil to use on my skin .
Maybe you could produce this combination .
Alessandra L.
I like how it's very smooth and helps my skin stay moisturized and covered from the sun. The only thing I'm not thrilled about is I buy products with NO fragrance or scents added unless it is specifically the oil of the plant/herb etc. I am very sensitive to smell and the fragrance in there seems unnatural.
Teiko M.
I wanted so badly to love this product but I broke out terribly. My skin is very sensitive and did not react well to this product.
Liz H.
So I am fair skinned, but could not for the life of me find a sunscreen (in my budget) that didn’t leave that white cast film on my face. I always looked purple or more red! Until, thank you Instagram, your ad came across and I knew instantly I’d love it. I bought right away and waited by the door like a puppy for it to come! Applied it and went to the beach and will never look back. Went on so smoothly, didn’t leave any white cast, I felt protected all morning and the brightening vitamin c is such a plus!
Seriously telling all my friends about this amazing product.
KAREN Y.
Love this
Barbara A.
It’s moisturizing and not to oily which I absolutely love !
Michellian H.
When I tell you this product is golden it is Golden. My face is forever happy. Thank you for this.
Shaterica T.
Love this SPF! It’s light weight and doesn’t have that “sunscreen” smell like some other sub screens. It also doesn’t disturb my makeup. Because it is a spf/moisturizer I do use an additional moisturizer on my dry days but most times I just cleanse, tone, and apply this product. Definitely going to repurchase.
Melissa O.
I had high hopes for sunscreen moisture but should have known my sensitive skin would not have none of it. I broke out in a rash on my face that took over a week to go away.
Kecia A.
When the products are so awesome, they get a shelf all to themselves! I cannot say enough about how amazing these products have been for my skin. The Brightening Moisturizer is perfect for my combination skin. The SPF factor is a definite bonus. Bolden skincare will always be a staple in my medicine cabinet!
Cynthia J.
This is the best!
Agnes A.
The product is really good my only problem is the shipment fee it’s too expensive and the important tax is expensive too i don’t know what to do
Anitra R.
My face broke out with this regime, kinda upset I purchase this set. My face broke out more, didn't see a difference
Ivy A.
Your products are very good.
Johanna W.
I really love the feel of my skin now that l am using this product
Omolayo L.
No white cast a plus!! It absorbs quickly into the skin as well.
Jada
Absolutely LOVE this moisturizer. It really is for all skin types. I almost didn't buy it because I saw so many reviews from people with dry skin saying it was great for them and I have combination skin so I thought it wouldn't be a match for me. I ended up buying it anyways and it is my favorite now! It is the perfect light weight formula and smells amazing. It is also great for oily skin because my mom loves it and she has very oily skin.
jana w.
Ehh used this with the entire line for over 2 months consistently and see no difference in my skin. Save your money.
KAYE B.
I have only been using this for a few weeks now but I love it. The consistency is wonderful and the smell is light and fragrant. My skin feels soft, protected and nourished which is really what makes it a keeper.
Kaye B.
ANTOINETTE S.
It's my first time using SPF for bad face and in very impressed with how well it rubs out and doesn't leave me with a white cast.
Tashama W.
This product glides over my skin and delivers much needed nourishment. My skin has a glow. I love the fact this product has the much needed SPF. My morning “go/to”. It’s a must have.
Ashley S.
Very moisturizing. Leaves my face with a glow after use. I only use 2 to 3 squirts with each use.
Aizenosa A.
It feels soft and silky on my skin, and I look forward to seeing my skin improve along the way!.
I told them my order delivery was slow but then they sent me another 2 moisturizer for free!
I commend them for their great customer service! I look forward to shopping from here more in the future!
Briyonah M.
I absolutely love this sunscreen because it doesn’t smell like the sunscreen I typically use when going to the beach. It’s also very moisturizing and light.
Monique J.
My skin feels great and I look good!
Ukamaka U.
This is my second time using this moisturizer and i like it soo much
Customer
I really like it. Doesn't leave white cast, no odd smells. My skin feels good after I apply it.
AnDionne S.
Love it. My skin looks even and smooth.
Stefanie C.
I love these products! I am primarily excited to find a black woman owned company creating products for black women. I will buy again and again.
Thank you!
Deborah O.
My face has been loving these products. I have found my staple skin care now. Love Bolden
Alisha J.
Great moisturizer for my oily skin. Doesn’t leave a residue at all. A little goes a long way.
Yona D.
Love this product! It is great for make up removal and the moisturizer is perfect for this kind of year, not too greasy or heavy. I am making this a permanent part of my beauty routine.
Umu B.
I saw immediate brightening effect and it’s very hydrating the only sad part is because I have an acne brine skin it break me out.
Alexandria A.
Great coverage - moisturizing - lightly scented. It hasn't broken out my skin like other SPFs do. Really enjoying this product!
Kilisha F.
Purchased this product based on reviews from YouTube. After trying it myself, I found that this was not the skincare line for me. I didn't see ANY changes in my skin and after 2 weeks it caused pimples to develop on my face, which is something I have never dealt with, even as a child. Needless to say I will not be making another purchase.
Sharon W.
Nice and light moisturizer.
Shannon M.
Loving it!
Maya M.
Super moisturizing and great that it has spf
Destiny B.
Amazing!!! Best sunscreen moisturizer I’ve used. Definitely buying another one when I run out!
Cierra P.
I really liked the product. It was a good moisturizer but still a bit light, so days that my skin was flaking I had to layer it with another moisturizer. On a good day, I could use it alone. Also, it left me glowing without looking greasy and of course there is absolutely no white cast, which is great for brown skin. The only issue I had with the moisturizer/sunscreen is that it only lasted about 4 months. There is still plenty of product left in my tube, but about 4 months in the product formula started to separate. I would pump the product out and it would be nothing but a clear liquid, like oil, and then a few blobs of the white part of the product. If you are able to improve shelf life, I would be able to give this product 5 stars, because I love everything else about it.
Karen B.
Unfortunately their sunscreen broke me out horribly. It also made my skin very greasy. I will not be purchasing this again
Kennetha L.
Gives my skin a glow
constance w.
it's real light and smooth. I have very sensitive acne prone skin. This hasn't broken me out, no little fine bumps. Love it.
Michellian H.
Amazing product.
Wendy W.
My face feels wonderful.
Tonya B.
I love how my skin feels after I apply the SPF Brightening Moisturizer! It not only moisturize but it repels all weather conditions!
Adreanne S.
I really love this moisturizer because it has spf and it is light but moisturizing. I have very dry skin so I really like the consistency and texture. When I use it with the toner, it is a double one-two punch. These are great products.
Tia H.
I Absolutely love this product. My skin is fresh it is brighter it is clearer. I feel like I don’t need make up and if I do wear make up it goes on a lot smoother. I am so so so happy with my purchase that I recommend this to all colored girls around the world. Thank you bolden
Felicia P.
Juli .
So far so good! I’m really enjoying the moisturizer.
Silvia D.
Works
Tressa E.
I tried, just can’t get rid of these stubborn blemishes!! Maybe I chose the wrong items.. IDK..
Natalee B.
It was introduced to me by my sister in law base on my skin type I have always had issue with other products, make me look darker than I am but I am loving my new bolden sun protector, it’s just perfect
Alicia D.
I'm a black woman with dark skin that I would describe as normal to dry. This moisturizer keeps my face perfectly hydrated and really does brighten my face and make it glow, and usually doesn't look greasy. I really love the way my skin looks using this. However, my main issue with this product is that it pills/balls up on your face. I've tried using it both with my serum and without and if you rub it in it will start pilling up which makes your face look dirty. Two solutions that have worked: only patting the product in with my finger tips but if i so much as rub it or graze my fingers over any part even a few hours later, the pilling starts. The better solution was to spray my face with rose water toner prior to applying. I read somewhere that this is common for some SPF products and the rosewater helps your skin absorb it better. I've had no pilling since then but the extra step is annoying. The second issue I have with this product is that lately it's started separating into a yellowish liquid and chunks of the white lotion. Customer service said it's due to extreme temperatures but i mostly keep this in my bedroom all day. This only started about 2 months after purchasing so it's possible the product is just reaching it's end but it's wasteful and makes application greasy. I can't tell if i'm getting the spf benefits when it separates. Honestly, I could deal with the pilling once I found the solution but the separation is not worth it and I'll probably be looking for a new product.
Tawanna H.
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.
Chowana J.
This is amazing! I have used this moisturizer for three weeks and can see an incredible change in my hyperpigmentation.
Dylan H.
Great formula, not ashy or excessively heavy and it helps to reduce my hyperpigmentation
Vanessa B.
This is wonderful! I’m a customer for life
R L.
I loved it in the beginning but not it has separated. It seems like only ‘oil’ is coming out and well of course I look oily. I’m disappointed
Joy S.
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 :)
Marcelle D.
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.
Vanessa M.
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.
Iretiola O.
I love the way Bolden's skincare products have helped to heal my skin.
Cheyanne M.
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.
Nicole B.
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.
Mmesoma A.
It was great. Saw improvements in about a month! Definitely buying again!
Wendy R.
When I first started using it the moisturizer was fine. I don’t know if my skin went through a change but now it doesn’t work for me as well as I’d like. It has made my face itchy especially around the cheeks. Upset I’m stuck with an expensive product I can’t use
Stacey D.
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.
Belinda O M.
Light and pleasant scented formula. Blends on well without white residue which I love.
Arielle D.
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.
LaToya G.
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
Pretoria C.
I love the smell and how nice it feel putting it on your face. And it also adds a glow to your skin.
Alexandra A.
Does what it says. Doesn't leave a white cast. Like the pump, controls the dispense. Wish it came in a bigger size.
iilandia e.
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.
Adrienne C.
Very lightweight, does not smear, cause acne, or leave residue like a lot of sunblocks do. Easy to wear even under makeup.
Shannon H.
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.
Customer
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
Alvina A.

I didn't see ANY changes in my skin and after 2 weeks it caused pimples to develop on my face, which is something I have never dealt with, even as a child. Needless to say I will not be making another purchase.

Amazing!!! Best sunscreen moisturizer I’ve used. Definitely buying another one when I run out!

I really liked the product. It was a good moisturizer but still a bit light, so days that my skin was flaking I had to layer it with another moisturizer. On a good day, I could use it alone. Also, it left me glowing without looking greasy and of course there is absolutely no white cast, which is great for brown skin. The only issue I had with the moisturizer/sunscreen is that it only lasted about 4 months. There is still plenty of product left in my tube, but about 4 months in the product formula started to separate. I would pump the product out and it would be nothing but a clear liquid, like oil, and then a few blobs of the white part of the product. If you are able to improve shelf life, I would be able to give this product 5 stars, because I love everything else about it.

Unfortunately their sunscreen broke me out horribly. It also made my skin very greasy. I will not be purchasing this again

it's real light and smooth. I have very sensitive acne prone skin. This hasn't broken me out, no little fine bumps. Love it.

My face feels wonderful.

I love how my skin feels after I apply the SPF Brightening Moisturizer! It not only moisturize but it repels all weather conditions!
Adreanne S.
I really love this moisturizer because it has spf and it is light but moisturizing. I have very dry skin so I really like the consistency and texture. When I use it with the toner, it is a double one-two punch. These are great products.
Tia H.
I Absolutely love this product. My skin is fresh it is brighter it is clearer. I feel like I don’t need make up and if I do wear make up it goes on a lot smoother. I am so so so happy with my purchase that I recommend this to all colored girls around the world. Thank you bolden

It was introduced to me by my sister in law base on my skin type I have always had issue with other products, make me look darker than I am but I am loving my new bolden sun protector, it’s just perfect

I'm a black woman with dark skin that I would describe as normal to dry. This moisturizer keeps my face perfectly hydrated and really does brighten my face and make it glow, and usually doesn't look greasy. I really love the way my skin looks using this. However, my main issue with this product is that it pills/balls up on your face. I've tried using it both with my serum and without and if you rub it in it will start pilling up which makes your face look dirty. Two solutions that have worked: only patting the product in with my finger tips but if i so much as rub it or graze my fingers over any part even a few hours later, the pilling starts. The better solution was to spray my face with rose water toner prior to applying. I read somewhere that this is common for some SPF products and the rosewater helps your skin absorb it better. I've had no pilling since then but the extra step is annoying. The second issue I have with this product is that lately it's started separating into a yellowish liquid and chunks of the white lotion. Customer service said it's due to extreme temperatures but i mostly keep this in my bedroom all day. This only started about 2 months after purchasing so it's possible the product is just reaching it's end but it's wasteful and makes application greasy. I can't tell if i'm getting the spf benefits when it separates. Honestly, I could deal with the pilling once I found the solution but the separation is not worth it and I'll probably be looking for a new product.

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.
Chowana J.
This is amazing! I have used this moisturizer for three weeks and can see an incredible change in my hyperpigmentation.
Dylan H.
Great formula, not ashy or excessively heavy and it helps to reduce my hyperpigmentation
Vanessa B.
This is wonderful! I’m a customer for life
R L.
I loved it in the beginning but not it has separated. It seems like only ‘oil’ is coming out and well of course I look oily. I’m disappointed
Joy S.
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 :)
Marcelle D.
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.
Vanessa M.
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.
Iretiola O.
I love the way Bolden's skincare products have helped to heal my skin.
Cheyanne M.
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.
Nicole B.
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.
Mmesoma A.
It was great. Saw improvements in about a month! Definitely buying again!
Wendy R.
When I first started using it the moisturizer was fine. I don’t know if my skin went through a change but now it doesn’t work for me as well as I’d like. It has made my face itchy especially around the cheeks. Upset I’m stuck with an expensive product I can’t use
Stacey D.
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.
Belinda O M.
Light and pleasant scented formula. Blends on well without white residue which I love.
Arielle D.
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.
LaToya G.
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
Pretoria C.
I love the smell and how nice it feel putting it on your face. And it also adds a glow to your skin.
Alexandra A.
Does what it says. Doesn't leave a white cast. Like the pump, controls the dispense. Wish it came in a bigger size.
iilandia e.
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.
Adrienne C.
Very lightweight, does not smear, cause acne, or leave residue like a lot of sunblocks do. Easy to wear even under makeup.
Shannon H.
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.
