I'm a very pale-skinned ginger. Looking for an SPF 50 that I can put on my face, preferably daily. Usually don't wear makeup over it. I bought Skinceuticals sheer mineral UV defense based on Sali Hughes' recommendation that it was "extremely lightweight and natural, with not a hint of grease". Whilst I agree that it is lightweight and non-greasy, on me it comes out as a lilac shade that makes me look like a corpse. I am very happy being pale and want to stay that way, but "vampire" is a step too far in the "interesting " direction. Any recommendations please?

I use the Body Shop Skin Defence and would recommend it! I'm quite ruddy though so don't know if it would also do the lilac thing. www.thebodyshop.com/en-gb/face/view-all/skin-defence-multi-protection-essence-spf50/p/p001071

The clarins face screen in factor 50 is amazing. It's a gorgeous texture too. I've been using it for years and swear by it.

Biore Watery Essence is great. Really light.

I like both sunsense and ultra sun facial suncreams. Not sticky or greasy at all.
