Well I was using Banana Boat Natural Reflect SPF 50 but just recently switched to Paula's Choice Resist super light daily defense SPF 30
They both have awesome ratings on cosDNA which is why I picked them up (I'm acne prone) The banana boat is awesome because it's so cheap. It just takes some time to rub in. Paula's Choice is pricier but it makes my skin look amazing I'm gonna do a review with picture on the PC sunscreen soon!
Any sunscreen that is SPF 30+ will work though (as long as it doesn't break you out, cause irritation ect) Those two are just my personal favorites :)
I've only tried 3: clarins sun wrinkle control eye contour care, Neutrogena Pure& Free liquid, and Banana Boat Natural Reflect.
The Clarins is great but waaay too expensive. The Neutrogena was kind of awful- just a really bad texture. Really grainy, lots of pilling, major white cast. The Banana Boat is what I currently use. It goes on smoothly and the white cast isn't bad, but it's a tad greasy. I almost always put some pressed powder on over it to make my face less shiny. None of them made me break out, which is the important thing really.
If you used combination "chemical" and physical, which cheaper sunscreens usually are, you might have an issue with the "chemical" components. I say chemical in quotes because everything is a chemical, but sunscreens are described that way to differentiate from methods that physically reflect the light from others.
Try something without avobenzone or related things. The active ingredients should be zinc oxide and/or titanium dioxide. Most people are less likely to have reactions to those. This banana boat sunscreen fits the bill. I don't personally use that one on my face because my skin is super breakout prone and it doesn't work for me, but it's a great body sunscreen. I use a korean sunscreen on my face because it dries matte and feels really light. It's kind of expensive, but worth buying for me. Edit: noticed that second one is waaaay more expensive than when I bought it. I paid 9 something dollars. The other innisfree varieties would probably be similar.
I'm confused. Is this not the product you are referring to?
Or is this just some of what's left on the market since it was discontinued?
Response to the OP: Yes, was looking at a ton this week while trying to write a sunscreen thing for the Sub. I'm kind of cross-eyed.
Are you using this one?
If it irritates you, look for another. It also doesn't fare well thrown into the SS simulator. Warning: Not tinypic. Results here..
