Recommend me a SPF 50 face cream please!

Today's little bit of sunshine has me excited for Spring and Summer!

I need a new SPF50 for this year as I've been using prescription RetinA and don't want to undo the great results.

Please tell me which SPF50 face cream/lotion you'd recommend - I'm very pale and some make me look a bit ghostly so it needs to absorb well and be ok under makeup (sometimes, not every day)

Thanks! Roll on Spring ☀️🌤☀️

I use either Korres wild rose tinted moisturiser or the Vichy one both great for me . Also La Roche Posay do a cc cream for rosacea that's good too but all my choices are tinted because I wear them instead of foundation.

Biore Watery Essence. Took me many years and many £'s to find one that didn't leave a white cast, go all bobbly or react with make up. It's sold on Amazon.

Following as I am looking for this too!

Ooh I didn’t know Altruist were doing face ones. I was using the body ones on my face for ages! They are so good and effective though.

I also use the IS Clinical one extreme protect which is very expensive but lovely.

I use Biore Watery Essence (from Amazon) or La Roche Posay. Can't remember which LRP, but the regular one and the lighter version are both in circulation in my bag and bathroom. I did try the tinted version once, but just gets all greasy/icky feeling around mid-morning and I hate that feeling!

Does anyone rate Clinique City Block? I have a spare unopened tube, but need a decent product due to pigmentation (caused by skiing 15 years ago without wearing a high enough SPF).
