Guest guest Posted June 4, 2002 Report Share Posted June 4, 2002 I've seen that Cetaphil > now has a mosturizer with 15 spf--has any tried this and can vouch for it? My husband & I use this, but it ain't a sunblock! I can say that it isn't greasy, stinky or stingy, so its better than a sharp stick in the eye. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 5, 2002 Report Share Posted June 5, 2002 Deryk, here is an excerpt from an email I sent a friend recently, in response to her asking me what sunscreens I use (references to money are in US dollars): Here are the ones I've used (none of which irritate my face) in order of preference: Clinique City Block SPF 15 and Clinique Super City Block SPF 25. These are really nice, and not at all greasy. All other sunscreens I use are somewhat greasy. These two rely purely on physical sunblocks (either titanium dioxide or zinc oxide), no chemicals. It's a 1.4 ounce tube for about $13. I ordered the next three from http://www.dermatologistrx.com/. Some of them might have mixed physical and chemical sunscreens, but I'm not sure. M.D. Forte Aftercare Environmental Protection Cream SPF 30, product ID 3602, 2.5 oz. $14.50. This one is pretty nice on the face, although slightly greasy. I wore it every day in St. Lucia last month and came home without a hint of sun on my face. Person and Covey Solbar Zinc SPF38, product ID 4523, 4 oz. $11.00. OK stuff, but fairly greasy. Couldn't find it looking at sunscreens on the DermatologistRX site, but found it under Person_Covey products at that site. Vanicream Sunscreen SPF15, product ID 6803, found on Web page under Vanicream products but not under sunscreens. This is gentle and not greasy, but kind of makes you look like you're wearing Kabuki makeup. Mosturizers and Sunblock Can anyone suggest some good non-irritating(for both rosacea and sd) and non-acnegenic mosturizers and sunblocks. I've seen that Cetaphil now has a mosturizer with 15 spf--has any tried this and can vouch for it?

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2002 Report Share Posted June 5, 2002 I've been using the Dermalogica moisturizers (the active moist is great) and sunblocks for years. They have a wonderful SPF 30 booster that you can add to your regular moisturizer or use alone. Never break out with it. Absorbs quickly and without any greasy feeling. They are a little more expensive than alot of other blocks, but for one who breaks out at the drop of a hat (namely moi) they've been a life-saver. > Deryk, here is an excerpt from an email I sent a friend recently, in response to her asking me what sunscreens I use (references to money are in US dollars): > > Here are the ones I've used (none of which irritate my face) in order of preference: > > Clinique City Block SPF 15 and Clinique Super City Block SPF 25.
