My Thoughts :
I am really happy with this product. I use it every morning on my face and neck before I put on my moisturizer (I use a tinted moisturizer and that is why I apply the sunscreen before, in order to avoid whiteness). It gives me the sun protection I need during the day, without the usual stickiness and perfume from a lot of other sunscreens. There is a light scent to this product, but after applying it usually vaporises and it does not give you that "I have just been to the beach"-smell.

I’m slowly moving out of my regular sunscreen comfort range and I have found that many new sunscreens have a much lighter non oily texture which is, of course, wonderful. We all need sunscreen everyday so comfort is paramount. The problem for me, is that I’m finding sunscreens to love in the higher price spectrum where the innovations are moving faster than in the drugstore/pharmacy brands. Its a right pity, because we need this everyday, yet if its going to be so pricey, how on earth are we going to keep it up? Ah… the neverending conundrum

I have combination skin with oily t-zone, and this does not make the skin more oily nor does it make my skin break out. It's a definite repurchase for me.
