Cetaphil Sheer Mineral Sunscreen Lotion Broad Spectrum SPF 50 39 ingredients
I usually use Korean sunscreen for daily wear, but wanted something with a stated water resistance for wearing to the pool, that I could grab at a local store. I settled on this one because it has ceramides. If you apply the recommended amount, it's going to leave a white cast, which I'm fine with. I want high protection, I don't really care how it looks. I do not love how it feels (not elegant) Show more
The most god awful sunscreen ever. Try it if you can't find white face paint for halloween - its even got the same greasy texture. Somehow oily and drying at the same time? Nothing "sheer" about this.
Derma:B Everyday Sun Block SPF 50+ PA++++ 36 ingredients
wow! I wasn’t expecting much from this sunscreen other than a decent one to use on the body. but I’m actually very impressed with it for both face and body usage. it blends in quickly, doesn’t pill, and doesn’t have a white cast for me (my skin is light, so I’m not sure how it would look on darker skin). there is fragrance, but for me it’s quite subtle (I have had sunscreens in the past that Show more
Has a pleasant light scent, no white-cast, and moisturizing! This is going to be my daily go to sunscreen! Not water resistant so you need something else for beach days.
