Works at the beach and in the office

I bought Here Comes the Sun for a trip to the beach. My husband and I both used it, and we both returned sunburn-free. Because I was in the water, I reapplied every hour or so. I have been using it as a daily sunscreen under my Laura Mercier's oil free tinted moisturizer. The combination does not make my face oily, and has been effective for daily summer sun protection.

Okay
-07.15.12
I was expecting this sunscreen to be moisturizing and light but it ended up just making my face super greasy and didn't exactly moisturize, I had to return it because I realized I bought the product solely on the packaging. I have oily skin to begin with so I wouldn't recommend it for oily type skins.

Nice product, not so nice plastic pump
-06.22.12
Quick Take: non-greasy, blends in easily
This really is lightweight, non-greasy, and doesn't smell or leave your face white. Too bad the container is so cheap. The pump doesn't work very well and is frustrating. Hope they change that because I like the product and will buy more when it runs out.

Love it!!!
-06.16.12
Quick Take: non-greasy, blends in easily
Well I LOVE IT! Let me tell you that I have very sensitive skin and I AM SAYING VERY sensitive. I couldn't use any sunscreans before, every time I had allergic reaction - red, itchy bumps, dry skin and all of that for weeks. Just imagine poolside in Colorado without sunscrean - yeah sunburn all over - not fun... And when I found that - no allergy for now - very very happy!!!

not bad but there are cheaper alternatives

This didn't break out my skin like most SS's do however I found that I was alternating this with zenmed mineral sunscreen which i find leaves a smoother finish to the skin and is cheaper.

Quick Take: blends in easily
I like how this product feels and smells. It goes on your face smoothly. It feels like a serum. However, today I came to work with no makeup. Just my routine skincare products and this sunblock. I noticed that my face was more yellow and darker. Asked around and they agreed. If you are going to be using this with other products I am sure u won't have a problem. However, If you are going to be using it alone, I wouldn't get it.
