    UPDATE: Have used this for two months, and my decolletage looks much healthier; it's less red and freckles and sun spots are fading. This is the only product I'm using on this sensitive area...

    I am a fan of Paula's Choice products. I thought this one was OK - it didn't break me out and the sunscreen kept out the sun all day. However, my skin looked and felt a bit greasy when I wore it....

    Bit sticky. Would't wear it under makeup which kind of defeats the point.

    I used a whole bottle of this, and didn't see any results. It seems the bigger Paula's Choice gets, the worse her products get. I find MUAC products to be superior.

    This product is not for me. First, it is very heavy, does not absorb well and leaves a whitish cast on my face. I also got cystic pimples since I've been using it. It's too bad, because there are...

    I love all the many benefits this product claims to provide on top of being a moisturiser with an SPF of 25. But that's where the pros end. The mouse-y texture is fine as a medium but it just...

    I had two samples of this product which contained a very small amount of product, 1 - 3 days max each. (Unlike Kiehl's samples which contain about 1-2 weeks of product.) However, it turns out that...

    This is the best non-chemical sunscreen I've tried so far. I'd almost given up on finding one that wouldn't make me look sickly and pale and feel like a layer of grease. Shiseido Gentle was too...
