*This review will be for the SPF 60 version. (I can’t find the SPF 30 in the store and will have to special order it sometime).
Sunscreen is an absolute stable in my everyday skincare, and has been for years and years. I’ve tried a lot throughout that time, and I don’t think anything has ever protected, yet damaged my skin more.
When I first started using sunscreen, I used a chemical sunscreen. I used that everyday for 9 years, and when I was a teenager it was my primary moisturizer. Then “one day” my skin went to hell; stinging, red, and so tight it would hurt to talk or smile. Try as I might, I realize now, *anytime* I use a product that contains either Oxybenzone or Avobenzone my skin howls in protest. (Even lip products, they make my lips tight and bright, stinging red)
This is how my search led me to Vanicream SPF 60.
Now I have to say, this is not my favorite sunscreen. As one reviewer said, it’s a product you hate to love.
V. SPF 60 is very thick to apply, but on my thin skin is does not feel heavy. Having said that though, this is the greasiest, stickiest sunscreen I have ever used. While some had said it looks like sweat, on me it looks like I’ve dipped my face into Crisco or lard. Even to the point of my less-than-tactful father asking what the heck I had on my face. Also, heaven forbid there is dust or fuzz in the air, because it will fly right towards your face and never let go.
Many people miss their hairline when they apply sunscreen, and if you’re not missing that important area, this will make your hair greasy. Your ears will also be ever so shiny too. On me, the shiny aspect lasts for a few hours, somewhere around four hours. (Crisco shiny in the morning, tolerable at lunchtime).
You may be wondering, why the heck am I giving this four lippies!? Because in bright, cold weather, this is fabulous. This feels like it really protects my dry, sensitive skin from the cold wind and sun, and “seals” my moisturizer in and adds to skin feeling less dry at the end of the day. And oddly, it’s soothing to put on if my skin is feeling stingy to something in the air. -That affect does not last long I should note. It is very thick going on, but not goopy or clumpy (Neutrogena Sensitive, I’m looking at you). There is a bit of a smell, but it’s not that typical sunscreen smell, and I find I don’t notice it after a few minutes.
One of the things to remember (one of the things I have to remember) is that this sunscreen uses *physical* blockers. They work by sitting on the skin, hence the thick, greasy feeling. But, the fact that it does not irritate my skin and helps to protect my skin makes me want to try to love it. I’m not sure how it will work in hot, humid weather, but I am willing to wait and see.
Thanks for reading xx
Edit 22Apr12: We’ve had some very hot weather around here lately and I have found this sunscreen to be too heavy in that kind of weather. But in a blistering cold day in January, this would be perfect. Especially if you enjoy winter sports.

I’m using the spf 30.
I can’t use anything on my face anymore without if becoming irritated.
I have a cabinet full of expensive skincare that my face all of sudden decided to hate.
I started using VaniCream and there Free and Clear products including this sunscreen. No problems!

My dermatologist recommended this to me as a high-SPF face cream that wouldn’t break out my skin. It was WAY too heavy for me. Would maybe be good for the beach, but not for every day.
However, I gave it to my mom (she is 63) and she loves it. Aside from age she has always had drier skin than I do (oilies come from my Dad). She loves this stuff, and the price is good for the quality. She said that in the sun the smell is pretty bad, which I never noticed.
