This is the only sunscreen I've used for the past 2 or 3 years, since I discovered it. I don't know if it's the best out there, but it's the best I've tried so far and probably the best for this...

I used this a few years back and I really loved it. Over the last few years I've done quite a lot of research into skin care ingredients what's irritating etc, and was horrified to discover this is...

This is a great sunscreen. Does not leave skin greasy and no white cast showing. Dries to a matte finish and the price is not bad either for a high spf sunblock. Would definitely rebuy.

Hi, This sunscreen is so far the best one that I've used. It is excellent for oily skin as it does not leave my face greasy at all unlike other sunscreens. It dries pretty fast to a matte finish...

Love this sunscreen with or without makeup, best I've found. I wear it over moisturiser (and on makeup days, under foundation). Tiny bit shiny but hardly at all, not greasy. Slight white tint that...

Protection is great - ppd is 19, and the texture is very good - matt right when applied, and then the finish 'softens' a bit a few hours later. Probally the most matt texture i have found in a high...
