I'm surprised this had such little reviews...this stuff is really good. I have been on a search for a new sunscreen for 2 years now and having had no success and reaction after reaction to various things...I FINALLY found this. I was honestly expecting it to be one more on the continuelly growing list of products to mess up my skin once more. Nope--my face likes this stuff. It is a light moisturizer, it doesn't make me shiny, and it doesn't leave a white cast because of the micronized zinc and chem SS mix. It runs $20-$25 which isn't super cheap, but compared to other purchases I've made I find it to be relatively affordable. Plus, it works! That's pretty priceless to someone with sensitive skin. For reference I have highly clog and acne prone skin that is also highly sensitive.( I can only tolerate octinoxate of all the chem SS so thank goodness that's what's in this. ) and am about NC30-35.

This is an extremely good and reasonably priced sunscreen. It goes on white, but not heavy and vanishes into my skin within 10 minutes or so. I have noticed a decrease in hyperpigmentation since I have been using it about 2 months. (I've been using AHAs and retin-A too, but this is helping those things do their jobs.) I cannot feel it or see it on my skin and no one else has noticed either. I wish it were just physical, but that I think is just psychological marketing stuff I fell for during my "all natural" phase. All and all I recommend this as a sunscreen I trust for a decent price.

Finally a sunscreen that doesn't make me break out!!! and one that doesn't leave me a greasy mess! I read about this sunscreen recently in a magazine; a dermatologist had said she uses it on her own sensitive skin. The texture is great; leaves my skin looking smooth, hydrated and glowing. At first, I look white and ghost like, but it quickly absorbs. Ingredient list is great.... I highly recommend. Great price for the amount you get too.....

Loving this ss so far....hope it continues in the winter! I have been using it for 3 months as my everyday ss and under mu. I have not had any increase in pigmentation. Love that it has antioxidants: A, C, E, green tea & co-q10. It seems to have the right balance so that it is not too moisturizing for our hot summers. (octinoxate & zinc) I have slightly dry skin (more so in winter) but since that is not an option for my profile, I put "normal". Wish I could put it on my sensitive neck... no chemical sunscreens there yet :( That's why the 4 lippies, but it's a 5 for my face! I'm not acne prone so ymmv. Citrix is made by Topix.
