I agree with the other reviewers... this sunscreen does ball up like crazy if you rub it in too much. I found that I could apply it in a couple of thin layers, rubbing only a little, then patting...

I just can't stand sunscreens that ball up. I think it's just unacceptable (how do they expect us to go out? it totally defeats the purpose of a sunscreen!), and this one balls up like crazy! I...

I really wanted this product to work for me, but sadly it didn't. I have extremely oily skin and sunscreen is a must since I had some sun spots removed from my cheeks about a year ago. The...

I also have not had the greatest outcome with this sunscreen. I picked it up at Sephora on the rec of a SA who was very enthusiastic about how well it worked for her. I think it may be personal...

I read in magazines that DDF had good sunscreens so that's why I bought this one. I didn't find this any better and it left an annoying residue on my face that I couldn't rub in (it made my face...

It was a complete waste of money for me. I could NOT for the life of me get past the balling up issue. I tried applying very small amounts at a time, even washing my hands in between applications...

Good, no sunscreen fragrance and doesnt leave face oily. Only flakes off if you apply too much. I recommend the organic DDF sunblock over this one, doesnt get flaky

Definitely not for oily face in the summer. I was desperately looking for non-oily/greasy SS and bought this from Sephora. Far from matte finish for my face and before it was expired, the liquid...

I've had NO problems with this-- have used several bottles of it and never experienced it 'balling up,' as others are describing. It is matte for a fairly long time, and doesn't feel heavy or...

I've been using this sunscreen for a few years with no problems in terms of breakouts or reactions (I have very sensitive skin). It does ball up a bit for me around my jawline, but I wipe it away...

Not the worst sunscreen, not the best. It feels nice, but if you look on the label, it has high concentrations of pore-clogging ingredients. I broke out while using it...

I like this sunscreen because it doesn't make me super shiney or greasy, but it is quite thick and I get a lot of balling from it. I mix it with some moisturizer to prevent it from balling on my...

This was the first "matte" sunscreen I found, before Neutrogena came out with theirs. I used it for awhile but never finished the bottle because it wasn't user-friendly. First, because it's a...

awesum product for acne prone skin...but sadly the uva protection is inadequate as it has only 1% avobenzone...not sufficient by any standards..

I've been using this product for the last few years and so far, it has worked well with my skin. I do still tan a little with this sunscreen if I stay under the sun for long periods of time. ...

Leaves a white cast on my face and the sunscreen balls up into white grit - not a nice experience. It does seem to provide adequate coverage.

In actual fact I really like this sunscreen. It did not irritate my rosacea prone skin and did not cause me to break out. It dried pretty matte, I wasn't too shiny or too dry looking. Loved all...
