I Have been using this product for a bit over 2months and I'm so lovig it!! I have oily/acne prone skin, super sensetive. This product has actually worked wonders for me. I hardly ever break out. I use this product under my foundation and my face stays matte all day long. Perhaps because im using almays amazing lasting foundation, but i only have to do maybe like one touch up if any. for those of you who dont use foundation or any kind of powder this will leave a white film over your skin. But it does set like after 5-10mins, that how long i usually wait to put my foundation on. Try it out, cant lose on the price.

Love this much more than the Spf 25 lotion by Shiseido (which left a greasy film and irritated my skin). This seems heavier than Shiseido's but gives me a dewy pretty glow instead of irritated skin. Never makes me break out and I think exfoliates my skin a bit with teh Lactic Acid. Love it cause it works and is soo cheaped. Slight white film but totally forgivable. My favorite to date, even though im giving K.Bijin's UV Cream a try right now.

I have been using this for about a year now, my grandmother actually gave me half of a bottle and I have been buying this ever since.

GREAT sun protection! As other posters have mentioned, the white film is a turn off - I just have to blend and blend until invisible. Great for a dry climate - like Colorado, horrible for humid climates - like Texas. Has not broken me out, so I will keep buying....

Bought this for the SPF... thought it might work for my oily skin, but it didn't. Made me break out...stayed on the top of my skin, never sunk in. May work for a drier skin...

My skin is dry from loads of treatments for acne (Retin-A, AHA, BHA), and does not absorb this lotion at all. This product clings to my flakies and sits on top of my skin, leaving a white cast all day long. It also does not moisturize in the least, so I use a Dove moisturizer in addition to this. I still use it because I need the SPF30 protection, but I'm not thrilled at all with this product. When I save up the $$$, hopefully I'll have better luck with Shiseido or DDF.

I have "normal" skin so I don't need much moisture; I find this a bit too hydrating but it's the least greasy SPF 30 sunscreen I've tried that doesn't break me out. Fortunately, this doesn't leave a white cast on my HHH (MAC C4) skin; I find that it disappears after a short time. I'll keep using this, until something less moisturizing comes along. Update, 1/21/05: This never broke me out, but the all-day greasiness really bugged me. This one is for ski trips only now. I've gone back to the lighter Olay Complete for daily use, even though it's only SPF 15.

It's as heavy as paste. Your face will have a white sheen no matter how well you rub. I'd rather re-apply a lighter lotion like Olay complete than put this on.

It moisturizes well except for the winter. I noticed after wearing it for over a month that I got little bumps on my face. I rechecked the label and noticed that although it reads "oil-free," it contains castor oil in the ingredient list. I have to find a new moisturizer with sunscreen yet again.

This is an excellent high spf moisturizer. The formula is rich and is best suited for normal/dry skins. I have acne prone/combination/sensitive skin. This product never irritated me or caused breakouts!!!! I use this on my drier days and in the winter- too heavy for regular use in summer- can result in an oil slick on my t-zone. Cost under $10.00!!!!!

I have been using this for over a year. It's a winner. I have combination skin that's very prone to breakouts, but I have no problem with this. I use it alone on clean skin and find it lightweight and non-greasy. My dermotologist recommeded a sunscreen with zinc oxide and this Eucerin product has it as one of its active ingredients. Yes, there's a bit of a whitish film, but it disappears as the lotion absorbs/dries. There are no chemical sunscreens in this, only physical suncreens; thus the whitish cast. I've repurchased at least four times.

I originally tried this out on the hottest week in San Diego and I kept sweating it off so i didn't like it at all... now that the weather has cooled down, this moisturizer actually feels nice on my skin. I've been using it for abot 2 weeks now, it's pretty nice. It absorbs well and the SPF is really nice! I have combo/sensitive/acne-prone skin. I havent had any problems with breaking out from this product and it doesn't leave a white film on my face. I would probably continue to wear for fall and winter but definitely not summer.

Wow, a find for my super sensitive rosacea skin! Bought it on vacation and love how it absorbs well and works nicely under makeup. Didn't get much color w/ daily outings on the beach so I'd say it works too. But best of all it doesn't aggravate my rosacea. Love the pump bottle and that it contains no fragrance. Cheap too. Will buy again.

This lotion did not irritate my sensitive skin, has great sun protection, and makes a nice base for foundation. But it does cause an unattractive, oily shine. I'm constantly powdering my face when I use this lotion. It moisturizes well but is too greasy for my skin.

I am so happy to have found this product. What more could I ask for? It's an oil-free moisturizer with SPF 30... It's fragrance-free... It absorbs quickly and works as a base for my make-up... It's packaged in a hygienic pump-bottle... And it only costs $9-$10. Great skincare.

I wanted to like this product, really I did! I was so happy to find a face cream with SPF 30. But I was not pleased with this at all. I have normal to combo, somewhat sensitive skin. Breakouts are not a problem for me. This lotion felt gross going on-- too heavy and thick. It made my skin look shiny, and the sunscreen irritated my skin a bit too. On the plus side, I did get great sun protection, but my face was red and blotchy from irritation. I did not break out, but my skin felt slimy whenever I used this.
I think I might have gotten the "older" version because I bought it for 50% off. Maybe that's why it wasn't good; perhaps it was too old or something. But I will not be using this again.

I bought this product last year before spending a few days at Disney World in July. I wanted a high spf in a lightweight lotion.
It worked GREAT! I wore it each day on my face, neck and chest and came home with no color from the hot Florida sun. The oil free formula is not usually heavy enough for my dry skin but it works great over my regular moisturizer for days when I want a higher spf than my usual 15. Because it's inexpensive, I apply it on my neck, chest and shoulders everyday in the summer. I even use it on my kids faces when I know they won't be in water.
I haven't had a problem with a white-ish cast but maybe that's because I'm very fair. My makeup goes on well over it.

I've had a really tough time finding the right SPF moisturizer, but this might just be the one. I have combination/acne prone skin and need a moisturizing sunscreen to counteract the drying effects of my acne treatment (I use DDF 5% benzoyl peroxide). This absorbs quickly, feels light and is very, very moisturizing - my skin felt dewy and soft all day long. I was worried that I'd start breaking out by the end of the day but it never happened. I've been using it for a couple weeks now and am loving it. I also like that it's fragrance free and seems gentle on my skin.

Previously I tried Lancome Vinefit (didn't moisturize enough) and Neutrogena Ultra-Sheer (made my skin feel oily). This works way better for me than either of those products and is less expensive. I definitely plan to buy this again.

I use after I use my complex 15 moisterizer and before my foundation. It does go on white but the color disappears into my skin quickly.I wait for it dry before I use my foundation. It doesn't pill on me and it keeps my fair sking from getting burned. When I wait for it to dry my foundation goes on easier.

My holy grail!!! I tried lots of much more expensive brands and was leaning toward Sheseido until I found this. Cheap! Good! No scent! Stays on! Doesn't clog pores! I have been using it a year now, and I will nevergo back to that stinky Oil of Olay or more expensive brands.

Eh, this stuff's okay. I've only used it twice and it doesn't seem to be clogging my pores, but it's just a little heavy for my combination/sensitive skin. Most of Eucerin's moisturizers seem to leave me with a shiny film on my face 2-3 hours after application. Maybe it would be a good moisturizer w/SPF for the winter months, especially for a drier climate than houston!
