What the gurus are saying

This sunscreen shines on oily skin and in humid climates, thanks to its lightweight gel texture and alcohol content that keeps it from feeling heavy. The denatured alcohol gives it a slight drying edge, so anyone with dry or sensitive skin in cold climates may want to patch-test first or use it only in summer. Fragrance-free and water-resistant, it's a solid pick for people who need their sunscreen to stay matte through heat and humidity.

"This is even more lightweight. I love using this during the summer. I'm not sure I could use it during the colder drier winter months however. It does sit really well over dense and heavy moisturizer. It will remove some of the shine, blur some of the pores. It makes for an excellent makeup primer. Truly weightless, easy to apply, it goes on like silk. I'm a fan."

"That's not a bad ingredient, but some people find it more on the drying side. I think this particular formulation is very good for people with oily skin. I [...] live in a very humid climate and August is our hottest month, and these have been perfect for me. However, if you live in a cold dry climate, [...] especially with this low molecular weight alcohol, you may find it to be on the drying side. But overall, it's very good and fragrance-free."
