What a blessing!
I did a lot of research before buying this on sale. The last facial sunscreen I tried burned my face. I still don't know what did it, as the individual ingrediants were all in other products I use. Anyways, I tried this. I'm not outside much, but wanted to anticipate the summer heat/humidity. I need...

not the best
i'm someone with very dry skin due to tretinoin, and i have super duper acne prone skin. i also have hyperpigmentation and slight redness, as well as textured skin. while this sunscreen didn't break me out, the formula is definitely not breathable imo. it pills up very easily if you have hair on you...

I love this product, first time buying sunscreen, and it gave me no issues, smells real good and it's not overpowering. Was recommended by Ulta employees and it works great for me!
The Best
This is hands down the best sunscreen I've used. Not only does it not cause breakouts on my very acne-prone skin, but it also wears beautifully under makeup. I wear Armani Luminous Silk foundation, and this sunscreen acts like a primer. My makeup lasts longer through the day and just looks so smooth. I'm 51 with combo, acne prone skin and this is my HG.
Do not recommend
This is so thick that its going to cause more wrinkles from rubbing it in than itll prevent with the SPF. White cast is pretty rough unless you sit there and work it. It doesnt make me more oily, which is the only plus.
My fav
This sunscreen is the only one i have found that doesnt break me out terribly!!
great sunscreen for oily acne-prone skin
i've used this sunscreen for years. the green tint slightly neutralizes any redness and the product itself helps control oil production. when i don't use it i'm a lot shinier! the only thing i wish was different was if the tube was actually filled up all the way instead of only about 2/3. otherwise this product has worked really well for me and helped improve my acne
