I've looked like crazy to find a good sunscreen. Usually I have a hard time with them either breaking me out, or just making my foundation look crappy. This however after years of searching surprisingly has become my FAVORITE. I've been using it about a month and it hasn't broken me out and created a good base under my foundation. It's moisturizing as well. I personally love the smell, it's very light and I actually bought it for that reason. It's a cross between slightly tropical mixed with a tad of vanilla. After trying so many highend brands, drug store brands, etc. This is my favorite so far. I got it for $10.00 at Sephora as well. Here's what the site says,

This was on sale at Sephora for $12, so I picked it up and used it the same day in the Las Vegas heat. It absorbed really nicely into my skin- no white residue and no stickiness. The fragrance is nice, too, kind of fruity and very light. Even though it's only 4oz, it's nice to throw into a makeup bag so it doesn't get lost at the bottom of the bigger beach bag.
I'd definitely pick another one up next time I'm at a Sephora.

I actually like this sunscreen. That is a huge compliment coming from me, cause if it's not my HG it's usually junk. Yeah, I'm like that!
While it's not my HG (Skin Ceuticles Ulimate Defense 30), I find it pleasently scented and find it absorbs fairly quickly, without whiteness or pilling. I like the inverted bottle, although a it has a screw off cap and I would perfer a flip-top instead. The price ($18 US) is pretty darm reasonable too.
What I don' like is that it feels really greasy when I first put it on. It does go away evenually, but usually takes longer then 10 minutes, and by then I am applying my foundation powder anyway, so it's nver really an issue. I find that the Neurtogena Dry Touch as just as good, and costs less - so while I would repurchase, I am no urgent rush, seeing as I am trying every suncreen under the .... SUN!

Absorbs really well, does not leave whitish residue. UVA/UVB protection. You also get a whole 4oz for $18 bucks! But I ended up returning it because I couldn't handle the very strong fruity smell. It doesn't go away and stays super strong the whole day.
