   This is a very good sunsreen but…..
   It gave me a white cast and if I tried to reapply it after towel drying my face after swimming my face had white streaks….
   On the good side it sets well over moisturizer and makeup on top , definitely can’t put it on with not at least some powder because it makes me look like a ghost.
   Funny thing is that after a few hours the whitness appears itsself through my makeup, and I do not like that at all.
   It didn’t break me out after one month use, most sunscreen does break me out.
   I guess its great sunscreen for city use only and for very very very fair ladies.
   Won’t be buying this again.

   I really like this product. I’ve been using it for about 3 weeks and I haven’t had any breakouts (well I have but not because of this product). It has been so hard for me to find a good quality, physical SPF that doesn’t break me out……I’ve tried so many natural ones that were either too greasy or they clogged my pores. This one may not be 100% natural but it works for me and from my experience with trying out so many different products is that when u find something that works, stick with it! It’s oil-free, PABA free, paraben free AND it leaves my skin matte which I I love…..it goes on so smooth, my makeup goes on very well over it. It’s very water resistant so u have to make sure to have good night time cleansing routine to get it all off….that’s not a problem for me, between my OCM and the clarisonic I always go to bed with a super clean face! It doesn’t feel heavy at all, the packaging is nice, it provides UVA and UVB protection, and it says it provides some anti-aging (antioxidants) properties which is a nice plus. I use about a dime size amount for my face/neck so I think it’ll last me a good 3 months…… $32 (for 2 oz) I think this product is well worth it. This is not a moisturizer, don’t expect it to do that (even though it does say it quenches dry skin…. it doesn’t) but If you’re oily/acne-prone and have not been able to find a good quality SPF to use under you’re moisturizer then give this one a try!

   WHAT IS IT? Very water-resistant silicone-based sunscreen
   INGREDIENTS:-Octinoxate (7.4%) and Zinc Oxide (9.6%) Water, Cyclomethicone, Butylene Glycol, Octyl Methoxycinnamate, Dimethicone, Dimethicone Copolyol, Methyl Gluceth-10, Polybutylene Glycol/PPG-9/1 Copolymer, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Polymethyl Methacrylate, Talc, Trimethylsiloxysilicate, Glycerin, Hydrogenated C6-14 Olefin Polymers, Xylitol, Glutathione, Sodium Glutamate, Zinc Myristate, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Thiotaurine, Ectoin, Scutellaria Baicalensis Extract, Ononis Spinosa Root Extract, Dextrin Palmitate, Isostearic Acid, PEG-15, Calcium Stearate, Aluminum Distearate, Aluminum Hydroxide, Alcohol, Silica, Trisodium EDTA, BHT, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Ethylparaben, Fragrance, Zinc Oxide, Titanium Dioxide.
   HOW DOES IT PERFORM? This product does indeed serve its intended purpose, which is to provide sun protection with both nano zinc oxide and octinoxate. My low rating for this product is based on the following: a) this is extremely water-resistant and difficult to remove even with a cleansing oil followed by a foaming cleanser on my skin – extensive cleansing like this disrupts my skin barrier and leads to b) severe acne breakouts both caused by the occlusive nature of the film formers which render this product water-resistant and aforementioned removal methods. Finally c) this product is very strongly fragranced and this fragrance lingers for hours and causes my eyes to water. People have asked if I am wearing cologne while wearing this product.
   WOULD YOU BUY AGAIN? Never
   PRICE: $45 CAD for 50ml
