Although I still haven't found a mineral sunscreen that feels like NOTHING on my skin, this is very lightweight, fairly non-greasy, and doesn't dry me out. There is a whisper of a whitecast, but on...

I bought this product for ~ $40 plus tax - quite expensive for me, but worth it if it can be everything that I want in a sunscreen. Last year I tried shiseido's spf 55 ultimate sun protection...

I've gone through 2 bottles of this stuff, which is saying a lot. It's fantastic for my combination skin and somehow does not aggravate my acne-prone skin. I've accidentally napped without removing...

I was really surprised how much I disliked this product. If you have dry skin like me, it just makes it worse. I'm not sure what ingredient mattifies your skin, but for older gals (particularly...

This has been my go to sunscreen for the past few years due to it's ease in finding it readily in department and drugstores in Canada. It's a pure mineral based sunscreen mixed with several types...

This is a pretty good sunscreen. I used the Shiseido Urban Environment one before this (the white one) and that made my face into a greaseball. I have really oily skin unfortunately and this one...

I found that it actually caused pigmentation - little dark spots - on my face. It does leave a white cast on your face, which I don't mind, for it just looks as though I have fairer skin....
