Pros:

Good, long lasting sun protection.
Doesn't sting eyes.
Doesn't make your face greasy--in fact this stuff actually mattifies.
I did not experience any kind of allergic reaction.

Cons:

It creates a white cast--and in sometimes it's really noticeable.
Hate the way it feels: it's not sheer at ALL, it's very mask-like.
Can be very drying.

Keep in mind that this is one of the better sunscreens and might be worth trying (just exercise caution). Everybody's skin reacts to products differently. It took me years to figure it out, but this stuff seems to give me those big cystic zits. I can use it for a couple of days before they start developing. I had always thought those kind of zits were hormonal, but trust me, I've used this stuff off and on (sometimes for long periods of time) over the past couple years, and those cysts always seem to crop up without fail when I use it. Now, I'm not claiming I never got another cystic zit once I stopped using it (in fact it always took about a month for my skin to get better), but their occurrence significantly lessons when I dont.
