Pros:

Works, affordable, widely available

Cons:

Poor product development

I am a cosmetic formulator, so I know exactly what is wrong with the formulation after using it. If the tube is left in the sun or exposed to cold temperatures, you will find a layer of clear oil at the top of the tube. This is phase separation can be greatly delayed with proper formulation development. If this happens to you, shake the bottle vigorously until no clear material is dispensed. It stays on an works well to protect my skin from the sun. I have seen a marked decrease in melanin coloration on my skin (light brown patches under the skin) over the last few weeks. I have used this product for a few weeks in varying environments (I travel a lot for work) and it has held up relatively well. The scent is not offensive, but the taste is distinctly that of UV absorbers. Can be bought at Walmart.

Pros:

-Protects against UVA rays for aging skin.
-Protects against UVB rays for burning.
-Waterproof, Sweatproof
-Doesnt clog pores
-Oil Free
-Light weight, dry touch.
- PABA Free
-Avobenzone 3%

Cons:

That it takes 15 - 30 minutes to dry.
but SPF 70 is better.

I use this product when i'm out in the sun and for a daily moisturizer. It helps with my acne. Maybe everyone who is talking about the red rash is because they are allergic to something in the product.

Pros:

spf

Cons:

thick formula

Though it is oil free, that doesn't necessarily mean that it won't clog your pores. I think the formula is quite thick and this can aid in the formation of whiteheads. Though I do agree that it does tend to cover up some of your past acne spots.

Pros:

light, non-greasy, dry touch, does not cause breakouts, cheap

Cons:

it leaves a white mask on your face

iv been using this product for a couple months now and have been getting different responses to my face. if you are going out in the sun and are prolly going to sweat alot, then this product works wonders. if you are just going outside with little or no sun then this will do nothing, make you look really white, and might cause more pimples. there have been times when i run around 4 and i come back take a shower and my face might look alittle worse or stay the same. BUT there were also times where i ran at 12 in 90 degree heat and after i took a shower my face cleared up sooo much. i have normal to oily skin so you have the same and you are very active then this might be good for you. AND its pretty cheap too.
