    I bought my second tube today, this version of the packaging has a pump and I paid 15,50€ / 50ml. Quite expensive, but still tolerable, the last tube also lasted me more than a year, though I only...

    I had been using this sunscreen for years and I guess it's my 8th bottle now. Love the texture and it gives me a little healthy glow look. Doesn't clog my pores, while preventing me from getting...

    I have been using this for just a month, and I thought I'd write a review. This ss doesn't break me out, cause irritation, or give me a shiny face. I do, however, get a white cast. I bought bronzer...

    After my beloved Shiseido SPF 55 Lotion began drying out my skin, I began searching for a new sunscreen, and this is the best I have found so far. It doesn't sting my sensitive skin, it's very...

    As a sunscreen, it does a pretty good job of providing protection, adequate for someone like me who spents most of the time indoors. I thought the formulation was sort of greasy but did not realize...

    This is the best sunscreen I've used for my face! It's non-greasy, high ppd and dries matte on me. I love how it doesn't ball or pill up on me when I apply my foundation, a problem that I had when...

    I really like Avene's chemical sunscreens especially for winter (in summer I like Bioderma for the higher PPD). I love that Avene's sunscreens such as the Emulsion, Cream, Lait (all SPF 50+) and...

    Okay, the only reason this is getting a 4 and not a 5 is because it doesn't have a *perfect* finish AND it's pricey. That said, it is pretty darn good for such a protective sunscreen. The PPD is...

    I'm being generous with a 2 rating, granting for the great protection, easy application, and use of Tinosorb. That said, this sunscreen looked awful on me no matter what I did (moisturizer...

    The best I can say about this sunscreen is that it has a high PPD. The finish is thick, tacky, moderately greasy, and very whitening (and I'm fair, so that's saying quite a bit). It also contains...

    Pro: Great protection, not greasy or irritating. Cons: The finish. Nice and matte, with either white streaks or balls/flakes to complete the look. It is a truly maddening experience to try...

    This is a nice matte sunscreen & the idea of SPF 50+ is very comforting as even applying not enough I will still get decent sun protection. I am giving a 3 for this as i am not sure if i like...

    This holds up better under the sun than my Clarins- I was able to stay out almost two and a half hours with this on my face. It does not make my face "sweaty" like a lot of sunscreens do, but it...
