Oh dear. How do I put this? Strong sunscreen-y smell but it provides light moisture and good sun protection. The only thing is, after using this for two weeks, I woke up one day with itchy face and swollen eyes. I couldn't open my eyes, it was too swollen and my face was VERY itchy, it was scary and it took me ten days to recover completely. Never again.

This is a moisturizer with sunscreen, not just a face sunscreen as the product title suggests. I love it - it provides light moisture and good sun protection for my combination, acne-prone, extremely fair skin. I love that it includes antioxidants to help prevent wrinkles and that it doesn't clog my pores (I see some other reviewers wish it contained physical sunscreen - well, physical sunscreen is a pore-clogging, greasy mess, so bring on the avenobenzone, Clinique). I've been using it for a few weeks and my skin looks great; I've never before found a sunscreen that doesn't break me out. My only gripe is that it leaves a slightly sticky residue on my powder brush, even if I wait 10 minutes between applying the moisturizer and applying powder. But that's not a big deal when weighed against the awesomeness of this product. Will definitely buy it again.

Doesn't feel oily however it does feel a bit thick and i feel like my pores aren't able to breathe. The cream has a bit of a color but once you rub it onto your skin, color does not show very much. This product might make skin more oily though.

Good for my summer! A little oily when first applied, but then would fade and I didn't really notice any oilness afterwards. Have wored this to Hawaii and Florida, my face has always been well protected!

This is just too oily and broke me out like hell. The packaging is impressive and this last for a long long time but the smell is also stron. Does not leave whitish hue -this is good. However, thumbs down for oily skin.

As a reviewer below stated, this product does not contain titanium dioxide, as Paula Begoun claims it does. (I wish I had gone through these reviews first before purchasing this sunscreen so impulsively; I guess I was attracted to the fact that it was one of the few unscented sunscreens available.) The only UVA protection it contains is avobenzone, and it's not even at the top of the active ingredients list. I wish a LOT more department store brands would invest in advanced titanium dioxide and/or zinc oxide-based sunscreens -- they certainly have had enough YEARS and resources to accomplish this! Aside from the UVA issue, the texture for Face Sunscreen is quite sticky and greasy, even on very dry skin like mine (the feel of it made me worry a great deal about potential breakouts). It also made my powder blush dissolve into a consistency more difficult to blend. EL, through their many companies, should be the department store leader in advanced sunscreen formulations, and instead they're barely keeping pace with drugstore lines. And, by the way, when will all these department store lines quit making their sunscreens so heavily fragranced? Why can't our American companies duplicate what Pola has done for years -- offer an unscented, water-resistant sunscreen with physical UVA blockers and high SPF? Will the likes of EL explain to us why this is so impossible???

This sunscreen works and there is an oil free formula that is perfect for my oily acne prone skin. I wouldn't put another sunscreen on my face for fear of breaking out but this moisturizes without being too greasy.

In the beginning I liked this. But after a few times I started to develop small bumps/pimples and that sucked! I won't try it again and I'm throwing away a whole tube of this. Blah!

This is really just a note, not a review. This sunscreen does now have UVA/UVB protection--avobenzone. However, Paula Begoun's latest book says it has titanium dioxide as the active ingredient, which it does *not.* So if you prefer a physical block (as I do), this is not the one to get, although it's a perfectly good product.

I really like this stuff. Doesn't leave a white paste. It's a little greasy at first but doesn't end up leaving a greasy feeling. So far so good. Alot of times I use this when I'm not wearing any makeup for the day. It's especially good to wear when I have to go outside but don't want to put on makeup but want to put on something to help against wind and etc.

Overall, this is a great sunscreen!

Love this sunscreen! I'm a red head with freckles- sun is not my friend- but I love this stuff- saves my skin smells like cocoa butter and my blush goes on and stays on if I use it right after I apply sunscreen. Pkg is okay- and the stuff isn't tested on animals- hard to find in a sunscreen

Face Zone Sun Block SPF 30 does not contain avobenzone, titanium or zinc doizide. Pay for a sunscreen with relaible full spectrum protection. Oxybenzone is listed in many products that claim that they have relaiable UVA protection, but OXYbenzone is not equal to AVObenzone. See www.fda.gov for details. If you're going to do sun protection - do it right.

I have almost gone through a 1 oz. sample of this and I love it! It works really well. I like the results: my skin is less red/pink from irritation from the harsh sun, I have less breakouts and [pre-cancerous] sun bumps and I have a more even skintone. The smell is a little bit strong but it fades in a matter of minutes. I love how this is non-greasy and doesn't cause breakouts! It moisturizes as well, I use this over Christian Dior iOd mattifying moisturizer and my face doesn't get too oily during the day.
