I have been searching for a mineral sunscreen that is moisturizing, doesn't leave a horrible white cast, that doesn't burn my eye and skin. I am a black woman with a medium brown complexion. It is so hard to find a mineral sunscreen that both takes care of my skin and looks good. I have tried a lot of products in search of one that I can confidently purchase again and again.

I have used this product for many years. It is the best sunscreen I have ever found, and I have tried many... It goes on very light (liquid) and leaves NO residue! Never greasy and works incredibly well - better than other sunscreens that claim they have 50% coverage. The other most important factor to this particular sunscreen is that if you have rosacea (as I do) you will have no reaction to thi Sandra · paulaschoice.com
