Right now I use mild bar soap, exfoliating lotion 1.0, dramatically different gel, universal primer, and even better foundation in buff. (in that order). I love how my skin looks and feels. I live in Florida. It is winter now, so I don't go to the beach much, but when I do I realize I will need a higher spf than 15, especially in the summer. Which sunblock would you reccommend for me? My skin is fair, sensitive, and acne prone. I will need a sunblock for my face and another one for my body. Thank you.

Completely invisible
I LOVE this sunblock! It absorbs in and feels like nothing on my skin. No sheen, no white film on my skin, no sunblock smell or taste. This product is truly a sunblock I can wear every day without compromising comfort or risking an oily film getting on my clothes or jewelry. A must have part of my d...

Too expensive for a tiny bottle
I use sunscreen every day on my face and prefer physical sunscreens to chemical ones. I heard that Clinique put out a purely mineral sunscreen and immediately ordered it. However, both on here at Ulta and on the clinique website there is no mention of the size of the product. I was immensely disappo...

I was impressed when I used it for the first time. A lady actually came up to me and said "I love your skin!" Now I have never been complimented on my skin before, ever. I thanked her, of course, but I couldn't believe it! Driving home I happened to glance at the rear view mirror and sure enough, I had a glow. And I have that glow every time I use this sunscreen.
My new favorite sunscreen!

I tried this for the first time while on vacation & loved it. We were in a higher elevation so the sun was brutal. A little goes a long way, great coverage & not super greasy. I applied under makeup & by itself, both worked well.
not for me
bough this on the recommendation of an Ulta associate. don't like it, white cast, ends up greasy looking, and causes my rosacea skin to flare up in bumps all over my face.
Caused skin rash, butyloctyl salicylate
Not a true Mineral Sunscreen. It contains Chemical UV filter Butyloctyl Salicylate. This chemical Butyloctyl Salicylate caused skin rash, itchy eyes, burns skin and eyes. Please take thus and all salicylates out of mineral sunscreens or atleast list is as active ingredient to be more transparent to consumers. I do not recommend. If you have sensitive skin or are allergic to Chemical Sunscreens this is not for you. disappointed!
Great sunscreen

I love this sunscreen. A little certainly goes a long way, and it is easy to apply. It doesn't dry out my skin like some other sunscreen I have tried. It has become my favorite. I agree with the other viewer who mentioned that it was pricey for such a small bottle. I wish it were available in a larger size at a more economical price. Great product! Please do not ever discontinue. I have extremely sensitive skin and have never experienced irritation or breakouts from this product.
