I'm going to cry if i hear another person uses this as their sole sunscreen- PLEASE DON'T DO THIS!!! I like this for touch-ups during the day as a powder. But seeing how the brush is a little...

This is a great on-the-go product to have in the purse. It's great for removing mid-day shine and be protected from the UV rays at the same time. But there are 2 cons: I have no idea how much...

This stuff is great. Another WOW product for me in 2008. The good stuff: - I can dust this on right over my regular makeup, no change in shade or appearance - Since it's a powder, it helps...

I really dislike suncreens on my face and unfortunately my fave m/u doesn't have any already in it. I use this as a powder over my m/u. Have had no skin reactions at all. The only problem with it...

I bought this product because I needed a touch-up sunscreen mid-day that would be non-greasy and can go over the oil that would surely be covering my skin by lunchtime (sorry, but there's no way I...

Tried this on at Sephora. It was way too dark for my fair skin and I think I broke the tester trying to figure out how to get the powder out. Didn't buy although I really like the idea of it.

So many hopes for this, but it ended up returned. Somehow, the packaging lets out a ton of powder, even if you barely move it. I ended up in a cloud of product, which felt really wasteful. Also,...

I agree with the positive comments here. Product seemed too good to be true, but I recall buying a PTR sunscreen years ago that was one of very few that did not burn when I put it on my face, so I...

I can't give this 5 lippies, because I have no definite proof that this is covering my skin completely and protecting every little bit of it from the sun. I never sunburn anyway, so I can't use...

I have extremely sensitive and dry skin, so needless to say all the lotion/cream sunscreens I've tried broke me out and using mineral powders just accentuate the dryness of my skin. So far for sun...

Have used this for about a week now. I've tried other powder sunscreens (Paula, Colorescience, some mineral makeups with SPF such as L'Oreal). I like this one best because it is SO SHEER: It...
