I'm not as young as I once was... ha ha. I've got lines on my face and I know I should wear a sunscreen to keep them from getting worse but I can't seem to find one that doesn't leave my skin feeling like I've rubbed it with chicken or something. No matter what the label says they often feel heavy, nasty, greasy - and inevitably break me out.
Just curious what others use?
I am considering buying and trying the Nuetragena healthy skin lotion with AHA and spf 15 - I have the night version and I like it well enough. It's kind of heavy, though, so I don't like it much for day time use, and fear the added SPF would make it even more icky. I don't want to buy another product I hate.

maybe you should try some mineral makeup it goes on very light and has a spf of usually 25 or at least 15, which my derm said is all you need. tiger woods must use a mineral makeup too for sun protection when he golfs so he doesnt look greasy or ghostly white, which i love being by the way!!! anyhow i like to use nuetrogena dry touch sunscreen 45 and always use a hat!!!
I really like Eucerin face lotion with SPF 30, I'm very fair and really never put sunscreen on my face, just use that every morning, no matter what my plans are and never have a problem with burning, it's pretty inexpensive and doesn't cause me to break out. Clinique Superdefense is another good one, they make one for oily skin that I'm using right now, it's more pricey, about $40 but it last for months and you can try it at one of their counters to see how it feels before you buy it. Also you may want to check out websites, like Neutrogena or Eucerin to see about getting samples.

I like the following: http://www.burnoutsun.com/gelsunscreen.htm
It feels like I'm wearing aloe vera (basically weightless), and doesn't cause break-outs (which I'm very prone to).
I used the spray on tanning lotion on my face because it is not thick and goopy, and it seems to be alcohol based.....i think it is made by banana boat.

Do you use a facial sunscreen?
