    LOVE. Pure love. I've tried countless sunscreens but this is The One. It mattifies, it really protects, and best of all, it doesn't break me out like 99% of sunscreens out there. I tried Shiseido...

    But what is the shelf life of this product? Apparently Japan does not require expiration dates. I am concerned about the UVB protection from the chemical component, and am confident about the...

    I said that I would not purchase this again, but I may actually do so. I adore the finish that this gives. It's like a primer and sunscreen in one. It's very expensive and difficult to obtain in...

    Extremely mattifying, no need to blot for hours but very drying for my skin (oily combo sensitive) and for my mothers skin (normal). As with all Sofina sunscreens, the texture is milky and...

    This product is a bit runny looking. It dries verily quickly on the skin and does not leave you feeling too shiny and oily on the first application. However, like most apt sunscreen users, you...

    This ss is not my favorite, simply b/c of the unnatural ingredients and the way that it dries out my skin and burns a bit (I have very sensitive skin). I kind of dread putting it on, and can't...

    Pros: This sunscreen has an awesome texture for anyone with oily skin -- it is very liquidy (not thick or creamy at all) and dries instantly on my skin. I can't feel it at all once it dries. And...
