Pros:

Projects against the sun
Smooth finish
High quality

Cons:

May cause allergic reaction / rash

I used this the entire summer last year and I loved it until one of the last weeks of august. Underneath my eyes became red and swollen, had to use aloe [more complex vitamin E treatments made it worse] and stay out of the sun for it to go down. I think this was a result of applying the product to skin that was very sensitive (under-eye skin is thin and it may have already irritated from too much time in the sun by that point). I'll still use it, but carefully. Try it on a patch of skin before total use.

Pros:

It goes on easily and I did not burn in the areas that I applied it. And I only applied it 2x for over 4hrs in direct sunlight.
It worked well for my body (back, legs, arms). It does not smell like typical sunscreen. I did not feel greasy.

Cons:

It made me break out all over my face in a different way than my typical breakouts. I have little mini white heads all over and my face is not smooth.

I would not recommend it for your face unless you have nothing else on hand b/c it did protect me from being burned. I would only use on arms and body, especially if you have sensitive facial skin.

Cons:

Like the other people, I developed a rash where this product was applied. Did not realize and used it again a month later - again rash. Did not realize and used again a month later and again rash as described above.

Have never had this problem with sun screen execpt from this product.

Pros:

Light and non-greasy, and I didn't mind the fragrance.

Cons:

Made me break out badly - not just clogged pores, but big red pimples. It was also a bit tough to spread because of the non-greasy/ultra-dry consistency (though that can't really be helped.)

I wanted to like this product, but I don't. Back to the search for a sunscreen that won't make me break out. People seem to have success with this product. It's a shame I'm not one of them.

Pros:

sorta affordable

Cons:

Smells horrible to me. So bad I would not use it again. Felt it on my skin for hours afterward.

Definitely not going to be a staple in my household.
