Best Sunscreen?
What do people prefer (brands) for facial sunscreen? I keep going through different types and can't find one I really love. Any good ones with antioxidants???

im really happy with the garnier ambre solaire factor 50 moisturising milk, or loreal solar expertise 50 which prevents dark spots.

I like Neutrogena Dry Touch - it is not too greasy at all

This is a good sunscreen^^ I really like La Roche Posay sunscreens, great consistency. Right now I am using Garnier Ambre Solaire which is working just fine as well.

Re: Best Sunscreen?
This is the SS that peri rec last year. Before you choke at the price, bear in mind that it's a whopping 400ml. Pretty economical for $52. And he swears it doesn't leave a white cast. Has tinosorb to stabilize it, SPF of 50+ and PPD of 38. Darn near perfect:
