    This has almost 20% zinc oxide. That makes for a thick formula, even if it’s using nano, which Shiseido does. This isn’t as cosmetically elegant as other formulas out there, but compared to every...

    God this was so thick and hard to apply. Hard to rub it in, my face felt greasy and coated, and left a white cast. Definitely not cosmetically elegant, and not something I would wear everyday and...

    I'm shocked at all the negative reviews of this sunscreen, because I think it's terrific. I have light, oily-combination, sensitive skin and so I am always looking for a sunscreen which, a) has a...

    I picked this up in a small size - 1.2 oz. I think - while checking out at Sephora - which is like the equivalent of the checkout lane at the grocery store for kids - irresistible! Ha! I'm always...

    Not for me. The Ultimate sun protection cream was way too thick and difficult to apply. I had to rub hard on my skin to apply, something I do not want to be doing to me skin. Also leaves a whitish...

    I have used this several times while working out in the yard this summer. The chemical stench when applying this takes me aback every time. When I first apply it, it's a very off-putting lavender...

    I tried this little blue tube after finishing a bottle of Shiseido's Urban Environment Cream (white tube). This stuff is pretty good, but it does pale my Indian skin a bit, and smells much more...

    ETA- I am upgrading this to my HG. I ran out a month ago and was cringing at the idea of being hooked on such an expensive sunscreen. So I tried really hard to find something else that worked as...

    I used the previous formula for several years and I loved it. This new formula is awful. I have combo skin and I'm very fair. This leaves my face white and takes awhile to soak in. The old...

    This formulation replaced the old SPF 55, which was well-liked by those with oily skin because of its wonderful mattifying properties. Unfortunately, this new formula is nothing like the last. It...

    I got this as part of the Sephora suncare sampler and I was excited to try it after hearing so many great things. The pros: it works - definitely protects my superfair skin from the sun; dries to a...

    This is a replacement for/reformulation of the beloved 55. DISCLAIMER: I never used the old ultimate sun cream so I can't compare to the old formulation. That said, I love this spf. It's on...

    I loved and used the old 60+ ultimate formula. I hate this new formulation. It turns my medium, NC 35, GGG skin a chalky bluish white. So much so that I have to wear tinted moisturizer and more...
