Pros:

Balances out greasiness, doesn't break me out, great to wear under make up, not crazy expensive, lasts for a while

Cons:

Smells like sunscreen

I have dry skin with moderate acne, so it gets tricky trying to keep my skin oil free without drying it out (and it does dry out easily). A lot of times my skin will become flakey and when I put my make up on it won't go on smoothly which sucks. This sunscreen doesn't dry my skin out at all. I use it after my moisturizer and before I apply make up. When I do this, my make up goes on very smoothly. I even will mix it with my concealer to cover blemishes and it blends in great. I actually am using the SPF 100 version on this product, because I'm out in the sun a lot and want extra protection. Because I'm middle eastern/italian, I have olive skin and with acne comes PIH. So I worry about the sun darkening the spots even further. When I use this product every day, I notice that the spots fade MUCH quicker than they did when I didn't use as strong SPF. I highly recommend this product. The only thing is is does smell like a sunscreen. It's not very strong, though and I really don't mind the smell. As long as you use other pleasant-smelling products it should be fine.

Pros:

Perfect for oily skin. All SPF moisturizers make my skin greasy/sticky, I tried this as a last resort to protect my skin on vacation and was pleasantly surprised. I can't live without it. It dries matte and actually helps control my oil!

Cons:

Smells like sunscreen
Doesn't necessarily moisturize (maybe add some jojoba to it if you are flaky)

Buy this! If you have oily/acne-prone skin, this stuff is awesome.

Soaks in very easily. Doesn't leave my skin greasy or shiny. Leaves my skin super soft. Protects me better than anything else I have ever used from the sun.

None.

This product is great! If you have extremely sensitive skin to the sun, like i do, definitely try it!!

Pros:

Matte appearance when applied, absorbs quickly, decreases chance of sun damage, small bottle (3 oz.) but lasts long, not an embarrassing acne medication, smells like sunscreen but scent doesn't linger

Cons:

None

After years of trying everything short of prescriptions and having no long-term luck, I finally quit all medicated products and started limiting my regimen to cleansing and moisturizing twice a day with Cetaphil products. This didn't work out as well as I would have hoped, because the Cetaphil moisturizer made my skin greasy, and I'm convinced that it caused acne. After spending some time in sunny weather recently and switching to this product for that trip, I haven't looked back. At morning I cleans and moisturize with this, and at night I cleanse and moisturize with aloe vera gel. It's been a few weeks, and nothing new is popping up, and the last of the red marks are fading. I now have to confidence to do whatever I want, and not be dependent on some acne cream that will aggravate my skin. In fairness, I'm 22 and I don't experience teenage acne. If you're young, you should probably stick with BP for now.

Pros:

excellent product. switched from Banana Boat Sunwear Faces SPF 30 and never looked back. it does an AMAZING job of mattifying your skin and keeping it that way. excellent as a primer too. people with oily or combo skin will most definitely love it.

Cons:

perhaps not super moisturizing, but otherwise none

great product, with nice packaging, appealing scent and a lovely consistency. definitely a winner out of all the suncreen/moisturizers I've tried!

Pros:

Isn't greasy, smells good, dries up leaving your skin kind of 'matte'.

Cons:

None

It's very important to protect your skin from the sun. After years of exposure it can cause aging all over your face and neck. This is great to put on before makeup, in fact, I mix it WITH my lotion so that my lotion isn't greasy. I recommend this if you are using Dans AHA,

No breakouts AT ALL
Only sunscreen that doesn't break me out. It is really light on my skin as well. Moreover, it creates a smooth surface, so I often use it as a stand-in for primer when I run out.

Pros:

Isn't greasy
Not shiny
Great protection
Doesn't aggrivate my acne

I got it in a twin pack at Walmart for a bargain. This stuff really means it when it says "non-comedogenic." Best sunscreen I ever had!
