I was skeptical of this, but bought it b/c I was at my wits' end in trying to find a sunscreen that didn't break me out. After about a month I have had no breakouts or clogged pores from it, and...

I'm on the fence with this product. I love the concept especially because I've oily skin and hate the heavy stickiness regular lotion sunscreens leave behind. This gives a nice matte finish however...

I use this because I'm using a home microdermabrasion system and I'm supposed to wear sunblock every day - and most sunblocks make me break out. The switch to a powder instead of a cream or lotion...

This is one of the few mineral makeups that DON"T break me out. I use it as a finishing powder rather than by itself. Once you get the product started in the brush (took a couple of wearings to...

The idea of this ss is great - but the product doesn't work for me. Although it is an effective ss, it broke me out (small bumps and pustules). I am sensitive to most ss, and this one was no...
