My best sunblock after trying almost all
It’s best one in the market until now, it’s not irritating skin or even around the eye area simply i never felt the alcohol or perfumes in it even though my skin is kinda sensitive
My holy grail
I love that it doesn't leave any white cast upon application. the consistency is fluid, making it easy to apply. I have combination (mostly oily) skin with rosacea and have been using this religiously for 2+ years.
