I'm a huge fan of Peter Thomas Roth Instant Mineral Sunscreen, but this definitely compares for so much CHEAPER. Stays on, doesn't wash-off or sweat-off or change colors. Feels excellent on my skin with absolutely no irritation, break-outs, or other common problems with my sensitive acne-prone oily skin. Totally awesome natural color that just gives a nice healthy, smooth finish, not really a "COLOR." Totally totally love this stuff. Stays on in the hottest, most humid weather and I totally did NOT sunburn !! A real winner. I'm thinking of tranferring the powder to my PTR refillable brush for convenience. LOVE this stuff !!!!! My skin actually seems to be IMPROVED after wearing it.....smoother, more even, and very calm and non-irritated or broken-out. YAY !!! =)

This is a powder sunscreen (estimate spf about 30) and it's absolutely wonderful. It's very cheap (15 bucks for a 30 gm sifter), no chemicals, minimum ingredients, easy to apply, comes in 3 colors (sheer, pebble which is a beige, and cameo which is more peachy/pinky), and it gives excellent sun protection as well as made my skin look nicer after I washed it off. It was much softer and the redness was reduced. I still used an extra spf eye cream for under eyes, but the rest of my face stayed fine after being outdoors. I've had no breakout, hives, rash .. nothing. I just love it! I've been using Bare Minerals, but I'm switching. This stays on much better and it's cheaper! (I have sensitive, rosacea skin)
