    From what I heard the most important thing - it is stable and high SPF! Goes on smothly, matte finish but not drying. May be a bit of light cast when first applied but it goes way. Must remove...

    I was all set to give this a terrific review. This is a very strong and durable sunscreen that isn't heavy and doesn't melt off my sensitive, oily skin. But after using it for two weeks my very...

    Pricy, pricy, and pricy...but well worth it. You do get a good amount (about 3.5 ounces) for the price. I use this solely as a facial sunscreen, but I imagine that it will work well on the body...

    I ♥ this sunscreen! I am very fair with freckles and a few moles, so I worry about protecting my skin from sun exposure--and I'm not interested in getting a tan. This product is sheer...

    I've been using it for 2 weeks now, and so far, no breakout! It's very matte in fact, and sometimes it feels little drying. But that's fine with me, since I'm very oily and I am using it for the...

    I may have found my HG here. The texture of the sunscreen is really nice and dry to MATTE finish on my combo/oily skin!! If you tried the SPF 33 before and think it was too wet and not so matte,...

    This product is great for two reasons: 1) protects you from the sun; and 2) completely smooths out your face before you apply makeup. It totally acts as a primer for makeup, which is a great plus!...

    Before this I was using their SPF 33 lotion. I was curious about the SPF 55 version, so I picked this up. Overall, this is quite similar to the SPF 33 except for 2 caveats- this is a tad thicker...

    I really wish I didn't love this so much. I finally find a sunblock that Really works and doesn't clog my pores, but UGH!! I can't afford it. Other than the price this product is amazing.
