this is great for my oily skin

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This is the first SPF I have found that doesn't break my face out. It absorbs well and doesn't leave me skin oily or sticky like every other SPF I have tried.

Sun Protection

Excellent protection, you don't even know you have it on, no color or too oily! Requires very little to cover face, ears and neck

Stings and itches, creates sticky texture

2 stars out of a maximum of 5

I gave a star to this product for being transparent, and another star for being a sunscreen, but I don't like anything else about it. I wanted to! First, I was stunned how intensely my skin itched and stung when I applied it (face, neck and chest), and I don't even have sensitive skin! I don't remember ever reacting to a facial product like that. Granted, it goes away after 5-10 minutes, and stops happening all together after about the fourth use, but when I stopped using it for a time, and then used it again, the stinging/itching process started again. The second thing I don't like about it (and which is the dealbreaker for me) is that it creates a grabby, sticky surface on my face that pretty much ruins my makeup application-my foundation looks cakey and crepey and doesn't blend like it should. Not even my awesome Smashbox primer could defeat it, even when I waited 20 minutes before applying the primer. I'm going to just use it for hiking, when I don't wear makeup, and when it's gone I will not buy it again. I prefer Neutrogena Clear Skin sunscreen, even though it isn't the zinc/titanium oxide variety.

Best Sunscreen for face

Extremely light weight. Perfect for people who has oil/combination skin type, and people who does makeup everyday.

Amazing!!!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I've FINALLY found a sunscreen that works for my extremely sensitive, acne prone, combination skin... I'm so ecstatic. I've tried literally everything and this was so good. It's actually cleared up any redness I've had/hyperpigmentation, works perfectly under my foundation, and leaves no white residue. It feels so soft on my skin... I'll never go without this again.

Best Facial Sunscreen

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This sunscreen is the best for those with acne-prone, oily skin. The smooth formula doesn't leave an oily residue like most facial sunscreens. I've been using this product for almost 10 years on the advice of my first dermatologist when I began using topical acne medications. These medications left my skin more prone to sunburn so I've been using this ever sense. I use it daily year round.

I love it but the pump has been an issue

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have been using this sunscreen for a ew years now. I changed to the clear one this year, but I have noticed that the pump is bad. It delivers tiny spurts of the product and at times it doesn't work at all. It's upsetting because I have another bottle with the same awful pump. Why change something that worked just fine? beats me!

only sunscreen I can use

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have very sensitive skin and have had the hardest time finding a suitable sunscreen that won't break me out or cause a dermatitis. I actually have to avoid products with SPF. I've deducted it's the titanium, and my dermatologist friend confirmed that it can cause cystic acne. She recommended EltaMD, and I'm so glad she did! This sunscreen is amazing. I apply either right out of the shower or over the EltaMD AM lotion. My skin looks fantastic after. My mom even tried it and was amazed at how well her skin looked after - kindof glowing, which is the finely milled zinc. I then apply my makeup without any issues. Best of all, I've had no breakouts and my skin actually looks better! I'm in the process of switching my skincare to EltaMD.

best facial sunscreen for me

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have had acne for a long time and have always used some type of moisturizer with spf after putting on my morning topical medicine. Recently (last 1-2 years), I started having intense burning in my eyes, where by the end of the day it was literally difficult to see, and after lots of trial and error, I learned that it was likely from the sunscreens, which had all been chemical sunscreens and contained avobenzone and this was likely the culprit (its in many products, including Jergens and Cetaphil lotions with sunscreen). So, then I tried CeraVe, which had a "physical" sunscreen, which didn't irritate my eyes, but it didn't absorb into my skin, so I had white patches all over my face. Can't go to work like that! Finally, the elta MD was recommended to me by a dermatologist friend, and it somehow has clear physical sunscreen. After all that I have tried, this is definitely the best one and worth the cost!
