City Block or similar

10 replies

I used to have Clinique City Block (SPF 40) and I loved it but I was young and fresh Grin I also remember it had some tint to it.
I want to purchase it again or something similar.
My skin is paler now (I used to live in a Mediterranean country)
I am older and my skin can be dry if I don't keep on top of it.

I am wanting to use it underneath some baked powder foundation. (laura Geller B&B)
Or on its own.

I have seen recent reviews saying it can be too dark (I have fair skin with cool pink undertones)

I have also seen this product "Even Better Dark Spot Defense (SPF 50)"

Are there any others out there I should know of?

I know I could probably just use sunscreen but I want something nice just for my face, to use as a primer or instead of BB creams or so

Thank you, I would be lost without this board Thanks

I practically look dead I'm so pale. I use the 25 spf city block and I wear foundation in ivory shade.

Thanks @Baloonphobia Smile
So hard to judge with reviews!

I am getting the City Block and the Heliocare recommended above.

Can't go wrong spending some hard earn money on sun protection

I have the city block but I don't find it dark at all, infact it hardly has any colour on me.

I know. I need to change my moisturiser and I'm overwhelmed with choice. Much dithering being done.

Thanks @lindyloo57 , excited for it to arrive now
