First let me start by saying that I'm a huge advocate of wearing sunscreen EVERY day. Since I live in Southern California I have no excuse to not use it year round. I'm also the type of person who doesn't tan, I skip the tanning step and go straight to a bright red sunburn so I can't afford to not wear SPF on a daily basis. Its safe to say I've tried several brands of sunscreen throughout the years and I'm 100% in love with both of these products which is a pretty big deal to me since I had yet to find a facial sunscreen that I really loved. I can officially stop searching because I've fallen in love!

1) is it going to burn my eyes
AND
2) is it going to make my already oily skin even more oily.
I'm happy to say that this ultra thin, easy to blend sunscreen did NOT burn my eyes! I was so surprised because in the past I've tried sunscreens that were meant for the face and if it got anywhere near my eyes it would burn. It never really made sense to me because the eye area needs the most protection since the skin around our eyes is thinner therefore making it more delicate than the rest of the face. I will say I haven't placed any on my actual eyelid, but I have placed the lotion right under and around my eyes and so far there hasn't been a burning sensation! SCORE!!! I also fell in love with the fact that this lotion did not make my skin any more oily than it already is. Actually, when I apply it, it left my face feeling matte and completely absorbed into the skin within seconds. I even apply a generous amount because I'm always paranoid that I don't have enough on. I also found that it didn't leave a weird white cast on my face like many sunscreens do. I have been wearing it under my makeup daily and haven't found that it does anything weird or unpleasant to the makeup.

I was officially sold on these two products after I went to the Dodger game this past Sat. It was a day game at 4:15pm and the beautiful Los Angeles Sun was out in full effect and I did not burn! There was no visible sign on my face, chest, or arms of a sunburn. Typically whenever I'm out in the direct sun for more than an hour even with sunscreen on, my poor skin sees the effects of the sun.
The final verdict:
Will I be repurchasing these products?
I most defiantly will!
Do I recommend them to you?
Yes! On your next trip to Walmart, Target, or any drugstore make sure you pick these up! If you typically hate the feeling of sunscreen on your face like a lot of people do, I highly recommend you try this one! You'll hardly feel it on and your skin and your skin will thank you later!
Hope everyone is excited for Summer and don't forget the ONLY way to prevent wrinkles is by wearing sunscreen!!!!!!! Protect yourselves ladies and gentlemen!
