I am in love with this product. My skin tends to be a bit oily, especially in the summer and humidity of New England. I absolutely hate sunscreens because they either make me break out or they feel slimy on the skin. This stuff is fabulous for me; it's a lightweight, elegant formula that works wonderfully on my skin without the nasty "sunscreen" side effects. It has a light and pleasant scent that doesn't linger; I'm not a fan of scented products on my face, but the upside is that it doesn't smell like sunscreen. This dissipates very quickly so I'm not bothered by it. I discovered something I didn't expect with this, too. It reduces the appearance of my pores and, if I buff on a bit of my mineral powder over it, they just disappear! I have a flawless complexion which stays put all day long. I can put away my foundation and tinted moisturizer for the summer and just use these two products for a smooth and protected complexion. The texture of this sunscreen is non-sticky, very light and fluid. You must shake it well before applying, and it has a slight tint to it to keep the telltale sunscreen "chalk-face" at bay. Once you blend the product in, the tint is invisible. I don't consider the price of the product a factor here; it beats the daylights out of biopsies and skin cancer. for the quality and staying power of this product, I'll bite the bullet. I will continue to purchase this as long as SkinCeuticals continues to make it.
I began using this product after I had a basal-cell cancer removed. I use it daily and feel very confident that tho product will protect me from any further sun damage or cancer. I used this summer every time we went to the lake on all of my family members. No one got a single sunburn!! I also have sensitive skin and have had no problems with this product. I will use this sunscreen for the rest of my life!!
I absolutely love this product. Both this one and the Sheer Physical UV Defense are equally fabulous. I have acne-prone skin and these are so lightweight that they don't irritate my skin at all. It really is such sheer coverage. I can't say enough good things about everything I've tried from Skinceuticals.
