ive been using clinique oil free super city block, spf 40, but its been casuing breakouts on my chin. neutrogena oil free sunblock used to be good, until it somehow gave me allergies…
now my dermatlogist is insisting upon selling dermalogica oil free sunblock to me, spf 20…since all i do is get in the car, go to work in the morning and come back home around sunset, i think spf 20 will do, but any reviews of this dermalogica sunblock>?
any one else has any good suggestions for oil free sunblock?
I've heard that SPF more than 30 actually activate some kinda glands n tend to make u darker so we should stick to under 30 SPF. BTW this was told by my salon lady who had just attended Dermalogica training sessions. She hadnt used their sunblock yet but she was telling me that they emphasize the most on their retail products rather than the therapy sessions. n yes their retail products r way too expensive atleast if u r in Pakistan.
I'll let u know if i get any reviews on their sunblock.
^I would be wary of any dermatologist that tries to sell you ANYTHING. you dont need anything name brand, my dermatologist recommended Cetaphil face wash and neutrogena's SPF with helioplex, both of which are cheap and found in drugstores.
I personally like Clarins SPF....dont know if its oil free but it sure feels like it!
Shisiedo's sunscreen is oil-free and leaves a matte finish. Sephora has it but do sample it before you but it because it's quite expensive than the regular drug-store brands.
I think its about trial and error. What works for some may not work for you, coz I actually use Clinique's and I don't have problems. Get yourself samples to try and see what works best :)
