Sun Screen

Init4life · 04-23-2012, 08:14 PM

Can anyone suggest a suncreen, 45 SPF or higher, I can wear under foundation, that won't look shiny? I've tried several and they all make me shine and my skin imperfections don't need the highlight of shine! I suppose the higher SPF's have more zinc oxide in them and maybe that's the problem.

I would like an answer to this also. I need to wear it, but can't stand to be all shiny. Plus, it tends to make my face sweat, lol. I'd like something really light that isn't thick and shiny.

I swear by ColoreScience Sunforgettable. It is a powder and is the very best facial sunscreen that I have ever used. Even if I sweat and stay in the hot Alabama sun all day, I still don't burn. You can get it in several shades or in clear. I use it over my make-up or alone. It really is the best that I have found!
