Our verdict

A fragrance-free SPF 50+ gel sunscreen suited to daily wear under makeup, though it carries no water resistance rating, so treat it as an indoor-day formula rather than a swim or workout sunscreen.

Overview

A gel-based facial sunscreen built around 2% niacinamide, offering SPF 50+ broad-spectrum coverage in a fragrance-free, non-greasy base. Suits anyone who wants daily sun protection under makeup without an oily residue, though it is not formulated for swimming or heavy sweating.

Pilgrim positions this as the last step in a skincare routine rather than a separate sunscreen ritual, which matters if you already layer several products before makeup. The gel format is meant to sit under foundation without pilling, and the niacinamide inclusion ties sun protection to a texture-improvement claim rather than treating SPF as an afterthought. Because it carries no water-resistance rating, it is built for indoor-to-outdoor days rather than swimming or heavy sweat.

  • 2% niacinamide gel base
  • SPF 50+ PA++++ broad spectrum
  • Paraben and sulfate free
  • Unscented, all skin types

Who it's for

Suits people layering SPF under makeup who want a lightweight daily gel rather than a heavy cream, and anyone sensitive to fragrance since it is unscented. Less suited to swimmers or anyone needing sweat- or water-resistant protection for extended outdoor exercise.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Gel texture absorbs quickly with a non-greasy finish
  • Fragrance-free formula for sensitive skin
  • SPF 50+ PA++++ broad spectrum rating
  • Designed to wear under makeup
Cons
  • Not water resistant
  • Small 50g / 1.76 oz size for daily use

Performance notes

SPF 50+ with PA++++ indicates strong protection against both UVB burning rays and UVA aging rays when applied at the labeled amount and reapplied through the day. The gel base is designed to absorb quickly rather than sit on the skin, which is what allows a non-greasy finish under makeup. Because the formula carries no water resistance rating, protection is likely to break down faster with sweat or water contact than a water-resistant sunscreen would.
