The sunscreen I keep coming back to
”
-August 5, 2011
I always come back to this sunscreen, no matter how many others I try. It isn't as sticky or as thick as most other physical block sunscreens. It does leave a slightly white cast, but nothing like other products and the cast does disappear once the product settles on. I have worn this on my skin on days when I have stayed out in the sun all day and I have never gotten burned or tanned. I do think it is rather expensive for the type of product, so that explains the low price/value rating.

This truly is an exceptional physical sunscreen for oily sensitive skin types. I have Baumann skin type 7, Oily, Sensitive, Pigmented, wrinkled. Most sunblocks that I have tried on my face and neck cause stinging and irritation, but not Zinclear. The formulation is excellent because it doesn't leave a visible residue after it dries, nor is it greasy or sticky. I dust some Colorscience SPF powder on to set it and refresh with more powder in the late afternoon before I leave work, and my sun protection has been foolproof. Hooray!
I have extremely sensitive skin and this sun screen attracted me because of the high content of Zinc Oxide. When I apply it on face, a cooling effect is felt. It is kind of different from tingling. However it diminishes after a few seconds. My face does not turn red anyway.
This sun screen does not leave any white cast at all but felt a bit sticky although it becomes less sticky after 5-10mins. Give it a 4 star due to the "cooling" effect but will definitely continue using it before I find a perfect sun screen. (Btw, already stock up another bottle from skinstore, :-) )

Great for Sensitive Skin!

I have tried tons of sun screen. This is great if you have sensitive, oily skin. I find it to be rather soothing too. Used it after getting a full blown fraxel treatment, and it helped heal my skin faster, and it didn't irritate it or burn. I highly recommend! (goes well under make-up too!)
