Sunscreen for your face is the most difficult to find, am I right? I’m always looking for something that goes on matte not greasy, clear not white, light not thick, and that I can layer my foundation on top of. It’s a process, but I’m finding that there are some great options out there, and the thinner the formula, the better the product.
I’m loving Neutrogena’s Clear Face sunscreen because it seems to be formulated for me in mind. This is a very thin, sheer formula sunscreen that feels absolutely light and powdery on the skin. Makeup layers on top so easily and I can honestly say that this sunscreen is comparable to more expensive Elta and Obagi sunscreens that I’ve tried… maybe even better than those, since they’re not even on my vanity right now.
I also love that there’s the option of SPF 60 or 30… so if you burn very easily, there is an option for you.
Also, Neutrogena sunscreens are made with Helioplex technology which means that they are very photo stable and will provide adequate sun protection for as long as they say they will.
Clear Face is for those of you who normally break out after wearing sunscreen… they claim that this one won’t clog pores, but to be honest, there’s no guarantee that it won’t because everyone’s skin is so different. As I mentioned, the formula is lovely and I enjoy using it so give it a try. It works well under a mask too.
Available online, about $20.
