Apologies, I know this has been done a lot but couldn't see a recent thread.

I bought Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence Sunscreen SPF50 from Japan but the delivery seems to be running late so desperately need a sunscreen for morning application.

I always wear a hat and also use Ambre Soleil spray mist to top up during the day so would consider an SPF 30-50.

Anyone using one they love at the mo? Could you also tell me if you use it with a moisturiser or instead of and how make up goes on on top? I have fairly sensitive, dry acne prone skin.

I’m using ultrasun mineral spf 50 but it is white on application but it hasn’t made my oily skin oilier.

Another vote for ultrasun

Vichy Idéal Soleil Mattifying Face Dry Touch sun cream comes on SPF30 and SPF50. I bought some in a pharmacy in Mallorca last summer and was really pleased with it.

It is non greasy, doesn't add a white sheen to your skin, and is the only facial suncream that I've used that hasn't caused a reaction. (I'd previously used Clinique and Clarins)
It's around £16 in Boots.

I like the LRP anti-shine creme gel, and their Shaka fluide.
Currently using the Freezyderm velvet touch - bought on amazon.
All spf50

Ultrasun 50+ anti-pigmentation. Can get it online in lots of places now.

I’ve just order Heliocare gel. It gets good reviews, but I haven’t tried it yet.
