What the gurus are saying

Dr. Jenny Liu and Dr. Aleksandra Brown rate it highly; Hyram passed. Hyram: "I have used this one, it's very highly rated, it is a little bit on the pricier side, and I just have to be honest guys, every time I've used that sunscreen it has this finish on the skin that feels just not pleasant."

~Yay
"This is pure mineral sunscreen SPF 50. Water resistant up to 40 minutes, but the ultra light fluid texture literally absorbs instantly without feeling like there's anything on your skin. Plus, it's got mattifying properties. So great for oily, combination skin, especially during the summer time. Great to use on a regular basis, too, not just summer. And it also is great to wear alone or under makeup. It's pretty elegant. Really ideal for those that are oily combination or if you have sensitive skin and just want a sunscreen with more mattifying instead of dewy finish. Ingredient wise, aside from the mineral filters, it's got La Roche-Posay thermal spring water and then silica that helps provide that lightweight and mattifying feel."

Every time I've tried to use it I don't like it because it makes my skin shiny, greasy."
