    Paula's Hydralight is a great oil-absorber, but keep in mind that you will have a white cast on your skin. I know that my African-American friends do not appreciate that. It works well for my...

    **I found out I can't use Propylene Glycol, and possibly Butylene Glycol. It took a long time to figure out but that's the reason I can't use this product** Eh, it's 'ok'. I got this as a sample...

    I'm looking for a daily mattifying light sunscreen for my acneprone skin. It's really, really hard to find a sunscreen that you both love and that looks good, when you have enlarged pores, acne,...

    This is lightweight and does not leave a chalky white film, but it isn't really matte; it leaves a subtle sheen behind. Neutrogena Ultra-Sheer is more matte than this. But it doesn't burn or sting,...

    Very nice all physical sunscreen that is cosmetically elegant (easy to spread, doesn't settle into pores, non-whitening). It's also the first PC product (aside from her bha products) that hasn't...

    I'm a big fan of good old Paula Begoun. I've been following her advice for 13 years - and being from the UK this is a long time (PC still unknown in UK). But this product just didn't cut the...

    No whitish cast and a physical sunscreen! Normally titanium dioxide based sunscreens can leave a cast, but this doesn't, which is surprising given that it has an SPF of more than 15. It spreads...

    It is a nice product and I can see while people like it. For a mineral SPF it goes on very light and it's not pastey. But like all mineral spfs it still breaks me out. I can tolerate a bit of them...

    I have been using this for the past week. My skin is sensitive, oily, and reacts pretty quickly when it doesn't like something (clogs/ acne or itching). During my AM routine, I cleansed my...

    This caused some of the most immediate, awful, product-related acne I can recall in recent memory. At the end of the first day of wear, I noticed that my pores appeared clogged. By the end of day...
