    <FONT color=#8080ff> I am using this for now until something more protective and something more matte comes out here in US. It is lighter than most stable s/s here, but it still doesn't dry matte...

    I got this sunscreen for a trip to the Bahamas. It is great for sun protection that my face didn't get burn or even tan. However, it's a bit greasy on my face and it sting my eye when I swim. I...

    This is a pretty good sunscreen, doesn't make me break out yet. I have been using this for a few weeks. I think the zinc oxide calm down my acne prone skin too. No heavy feeling at all. Also, I...

    Maybe it's my imagination, but this feels just a tad heavier than the spf 33, but i still like it a lot. i bought the spf 33 for myself and the 55 for my mom who prefers a higher spf since she has...

    I think I wouldn't try anything after my HG Sofina Extra UV Cut milk SPF50+ PA+++. But I was wrong, this is even better. This also comes in a watery texture( though marginally thicker than Sofina),...

    Excellent sunscreen for my oily combo skin. In the summer, I get a tad bit oily from this, but not unbearably so. In the winter, i use it on t-zone without additional moisturizer and on cheeks and...

    This is a good moisturiser for oily/combo types, not sure about acne prones though. It dries to a fairly matte finish but somehow my skin prefers Decleor's spf40 even though it is much richer in...

    I am so glad I took fellow MUAer's advice & finally bought this! I am amazed at how great this is! No whiteness, no shine at all. It is a bit of a challenge to get it completely off at the end of...

    I wanted to like this so much, but it ended up not working for me. I tried it once, & that was that. What I did like was the consistency. What I did not like was that it left white streaks on my...

    I,too, also questioned my sanity when I thought of spending $35 on sunscreen. But I thought about the extremely high SPF (not found in most other brands) and the fact that it's going to be good for...

    ETA: I am now using this daily and loving it. Maybe I was just adjusting to it at first, or more prone to a break out at the time. I might try the SPF 33 instead when this is gone, but would...
