The 5 Best Sunscreens - for Every Purpose - FutureDerm.com

**** Beware tho: Jan Marini and Topix look like they don't have any Helioplex, Mexoryl or Tinosorb to stabilize the chemical sunscreening ingredients to prevent them from breaking down and unleashing the free radicals. Unless I'm missing it here....

In addition, read the comments at the bottom for more suggestions about good sunscreen products.

Which one is it? Does it list the ingredients? Does it say what the SPF and PPD are???

I still would love to find one that is totally undetectable under a nice foundation....

Fawnie is the Aveeno one you spoke about non greasy and good cause if so i think il get this one! Would rather get 50 spf than lower! Found that some SPF make me itch like mad so stop using them!

well, I use the ultimate sun protection SPF 55..It blocks both UVA/UVB rays, it does list the ingredients, try going to the website. THey sell it at sephora for $30 and yes its great to wear under makeup, I wear makeup forever daily and it controls the oil as well. Its mainly for oily skin cause it will dry out ur skin, if ur skin is already dry..I definitely recommend..

AVENE is chemical and physical
DEVITA is purely physical
Both do a good job.

I also use and am very pleased with the Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protection Lotion. It's very water/sweat resistant and has spf of 60. It includes a high % of zinc oxide along with other ingredients that are suspended in a very liquidy format. It goes on sheer and is undetectable under foundation/other makeup. It's not a cream or even traditional lotion, so does not contribute any oil to your face. I'm combo skin in summer and just use this over my serum - no extra moiturizer.

I drive heavily every week for work and this is the only sunscreen that lasts all day, while being undetectable under makeup.
