UK sunscreen recommendations wanted...

[Guest guest]

I'm having trouble finding a facial sunscreen which is good for daily

use and doesn't cause irritation or break me out in acne. Ones I've

tried before which caused irritation have been City Block (15 and 25,

not Sheer yet), Ambre Solaire spf 60 and Origins Silent Treatment.

In desperation I tried Boots Soltan baby sunscreen spf25, which

wasn't irritating but it gives you a freakish mime-artist white face,

and I think it's poreblocking. At present I'm using Simple's Face

protector hydrolotion spf25, which is my best so far, but it still

causes slight itching on my face, though it generally goes away after

a while. I also seem to be getting rather spotty lately, and I

suspect it could be the culprit.

So, can anyone recommend anything else? Hopefully something

available in UK as I am reluctant to pay overseas shipping charges

for yet another product which doesn't work! My ideal would be a

physical sunscreen but without the white face effect (I don't mind if

it's tinted).
