Only needed to try this twice to realize it was a huge no go! It pills so badly! I had to wash it off so that I could put my makeup on properly. Too bad because the ingredients are good. But its...

Mrsminniver's review says it all. Pills within 10-15 seconds of even starting to try to rub it in. Gets stuck in hairline (even when careful trying to avoid it) and impossible to work with. ...

This is a pretty great product. I have sensitive, oily skin; chemical sunscreen ingredients break me out, and silicones make my face super greasy. I ordered this product from a local health food...

I have oily skin and this works for me! It is a but lightening but if you blend it in really well, massaging it in, it's not so bad and it won't ball up. Doesn't make me break out, doesn't make my...

Good SPF, ok moisturizing properties. But then, it is oil free. I actually had to add a bit of Argan oil to my cheeks for moisture. And unlike most physical sunscreen, this did not leave any white...

I like that it's all natural with no chemical sunscreen . It's also not expensive and fragrance free but I think it's giving me pimples. I'm not sure . Cliniderm SPF 45 is still the best.
