    My skin is normal to dry, and this absorbs pretty well if I give it the traditional 20 minutes. I would call it a lotion, not a gel; it has a creamy color and texture. It doesn't whiten nearly as...

    I can't believe I paid $50 for this! I bought it for my vacation as I sunburn easily and I was excited by the advanced suncare ingredients. This stuff is gross. Like most other reviewers, it made...

    I have just bought this because I'm starting Neostrata 15% at night. Never really used daily sunscreen (I know, I know, I'm stupid!). I'm 34 with formerly oily & acne prone skin, but now with...

    Have been using for several days with no irritation or breakouts. The finish leaves me shiny, which is surprising since its winter here and my normally oily skin is now normal to dry. I have to...

    I have found my HG sunblock!! On Face and body, no residue, no blackheads, no itching, no brown spots where the block didn't work, smells fine, no stinging, outrageously expensive, but cheaper than...

    My favorite sunscreen for the body (ie, hands, feet, neck) -- I don't like to apply this product to my face, though. My face looks shiny and I find it difficult to apply makeup afterwards if I use...

    This sunscreen is too shiny for my face and I don’t like the feel of it there. However I don’t have any problems wearing it on my neck and hands. Texture is not too creamy or too thin, so applying...

    I have only tried two Anthelios sunscreens so far (W Gel and XL Fluide Extreme), and the gel formulation is by far my favourite of the two. No breakouts, ease of application, excellent protection....

    The reviewer below pretty much said it right about this sunscreen gel being not so much a gel, but a light cream. <i>Anthelios W Gel</i> absorbs very fast into the skin without leaving a white...

    I've got combo skin, so I'm very afraid of sunscreens... And that's why I decided to give this one a try. Well, a "gel" it ain't: it's a very light cream, with a gel-like texture, though. It melts...

    Like Victoria wrote below, I also had high expectations for this sunscreen. It has a gel-like consistency and it is very easy to apply and spread but it leaves my face very shiny and sticky, but...
