What is your favorite sunscreen for your face?
I am looking for something light, but with a high SPF. I don't want that greasy feeling and looking type product. Thanks in advance!

I like Neutrogena Age Shield face lotion. It has an SPF of 70.
There's another good one by Neutrogena for faces, but the exact name is escaping me right now...

I just went back to Clinique City Block Sheer spf 50. I love it. I used it several years ago and am not sure why I stopped. It is light, not greasy, and feels good to put on.

I have found I can't go wrong with Neutrogena.

Paula's Choice makes a non-greasy, broad spectrum sunscreen that also doesnt get that white stuff one everything. City Block is great as well.

Neutragena Dry Touch. I also use the Ombrelle Dry Touch Stick when I'm on the go.

I use Colorscience (sp?) sunscreen powder. It's spf 50 and I haven't been sunburned yet. It's a little spendy...about $50, but I bought it a few years ago and I use it daily; I still have a ton left.

I've been using Neutrogena Beach Defense water + sun barrier stick sunscreen broad spectrum spf 50+. Being a stick, it glides on easily.

www.neutrogena.com/category/sun/clear+face.do <--Neutrogena Clear Face Breakout Free in SPF 55 w/Helioplex (UVA/B broad spectrum protection). It reminds me of their "Dry Touch" in that it is not at all greasy. For rest of body Walgreen's store brand sunscreen lotion in the yellow bottles, spf 50 is great, seriously cheap, yet a generic replica of the Neutrogena Age Shield (I learned from a few reviews the ingredients list was the same and same order) pics1.ds-static.com/prodimg/398599/300.JPG The smaller (regular sized) tubes are usually 2 for $5 & the large bottle (pictured in last link) about $9. I'm a believer now.

I like the Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer. It is only SPF 20 but I think even that helps. Great if you want a little smoothing and color as well. They also make an oil-free version but it is very dry where I live, so I take the oil as my face needs it. Back in Florida, the oil free was great for hot and humid summers.

Thanks for your replies. I have tried the neutrogena dry touch 70 SPF and it is ok. I will look into the other recommendations also.

I've just recently started using Clinique Even Better Skin Tone Correcting Moisturizer with SPF 20. IT isn't a super high SPF, but once you get above about 50 you're just paying for the higher number anyway. It is more important to reapply if you're sweating/in the water/toweling off than it is to slap on some SPF 70 once and call it good.

Definitely recommend the Clinique sunscreen. They make an spf 25 and 40, I think. I also use Neutrogena clear faces, but I find that greasier. Most sunsceens make my face break out, so I'm very picky.

I've been using the Neutrogena this year and I like it. It doesn't burn my eyes if I sweat. Previously, my daughter and I both would only use the Clinique one on our faces.

Another vote for Neutrogena.

I used to use Neutrogena too but their products (as well as many others) contain parabens. Parabens mimic estrogen and have been linked to breast cancer. About a year ago I went through all my make up and body care products and dumped anything containing parabens,

I like Cerave AM. It has an SPF of 30 and I wear it everyday under my makeup. My dermatologist recommended it.
