Finally, dear god, finally I've found a sunscreen I can wear with no problems breaking me out and isn't shiny or greasy at all (unless you apply too much!).

TerraSport

Good Luck! smile.gif

Can you wear makeup over this without any problems? I am looking for a sunscreen that I can wear under my foundation but won't leave me looking shiny.

Thanks! smile.gif

Yeah, I don't have any problems applying/wearing makeup over it at all.
I use Studio Fix over it, and the only time I had problems with it was when I used a bit too much...then it would make my powder look a 'lil cakey. But now that I've got it down as to how much of the spf to use, I haven't had a problem. wink.gif

I use retin-a and i love neutrogena's healthy defense daily moisturizer with spf 30 (it comes in untinted, light tint, and medium tint). it makes my face feel very smooth and not shiny at all.

Hey Miss L! eusa_dance.gif

Thanks so much for the info, and if I may ask one more question -- do you use the watersports version or the regular version?

Thanks again! wub.gif

I use the regular TerraSport spf 30.
And just so you know, you can get it at most health food stores. wink.gif

And of course,
