I am so disappointed in this. It so is greasy and heavy and made me break out all over my chin. I will keep this to use on my arms and legs, but will definitely not use it again on my face.

This sunscreen is definitely more suitable for the body than the face. On hot and humid days it could be a bit too heavy, but I'd definitely use it during the winter/ski trips etc. I used it when I worked at my summer job waitressing on a patio, and it was fantastic on my arms and legs.

Protects my skin when I've used it, but product itself is very runny. I always misjudge how much is going to come out of the bottle and then have a hard time rubbing it all in. I bought this for my 1 yr old son and myself. I don't like to use on me b/c it leaves me feeling so greasy. Also realized I wanted a higher spf for my son, so went to Mustela spf 50 (which I love for him, btw). Won't repurchase this one!

On the positive side. This is a good, broad-spectrum sunscreen that will give you good protection.

However, that protection comes at a cost. This lotion is very thick and imparts a sheen that makes Anthelios look downright matte. No matter where it's applied and how well it's rubbed in, it makes me look like a greased hog and feel sticky all over.

After using up my bottle, I will move on to other sunscreens.

An emollient, milky lotion that can come out too suddenly of the bottle if held upside-down. Very moisturizing, to the point of greasiness, alas. Great for giving the body a nice oiled sheen, but don't put it anywhere near the face. It will shine like mad. Overall, this is a decent sunscreen with all the high-tech ingredients, though the price is on the steep side.
