Much pricier than my old face sunscreen but it really is much, much nicer to apply and wear. My tube of Nutrogena is still kicking around somewhere, I totally abandoned it after buying this! The texture is exactly that of regular sunscreen which means you can accidentally squeeze out too much product - since it's such a lovely texture, I just apply any excess to the backs of my hands. I generally apply this all over my face, neck and decolletage and I'm still on my first tube after months of regular use. I have used powder, BB cream and liquid foundation over the top of this and had no issues.
I definitely recommend this if you have oily skin, medium to dark skin tone, and are looking for a good sunscreen. I'm not a fan of the price (I'm such a cheapskate, I know!) but I think it's such a good product, I'll be re-purchasing when I have the cash to spare.
I was going to buy this for the summer but I thought it was too expensive but now after reading this review I kinda regret it although I did find a nice cheap sunscreen by sun sense that works well :)
ReplyDeleteThis is one of those products that is expensive but worth it! Maybe next summer?
