Why: This "natural" sunscreen "doesn't cause any irritation" or "breakouts," readers say. "It seems to last long and I've never gotten a burn when wearing it," one reader says. "I only wish it came in a bigger tube!" adds another.

My favorite SPF products are by PTR. The powder brush is perfect for adding more during the day, the Retinol Fusion AM moisturizer has SPF 30.

I only wish some of these were more affordable...

Another good sunscreen article!!

by mhw Wednesday, July 11, 2012 at 10:56AM Report as inappropriate

Loved seeing this sunscreen roundup. The Clinique City Block caught my attention since it is reasonably priced, oil free and has a decent SPF to it. Thanks!

by HeathRene Wednesday, June 27, 2012 at 04:04PM Report as inappropriate

Good article wth reviews that addrssed the main concerns people have when trying to get sun protection that is effective and comfortable. As one otherperson said this is old an needs to e updated, and i is SUPERIMPORTANT so I think it should be given top priority!!

the sunscreen i'm using is nowhere in the list but it does it job while firming and whitening my skin at the same time...

by charlize_adrienne Sunday, April 22, 2012 at 11:10PM Report as inappropriate

The Shiseido sunscreen feels very nice on the screen and has a high spf.

Handy sunblock list, but my favorite isn't even available for review on this website!

by tallredamanda Thursday, March 22, 2012 at 09:25AM Report as inappropriate

I've used the banana boat clear mist several times and it worked just fine for me! Also, where is neutrogena on the best list?

interesting information.

great to know...sun protection is sooo important!

by jill_wieser Friday, March 2, 2012 at 06:04PM Report as inappropriate

I hated the Clinique, loved Shiseido. This list should be updated because it's so important!

Not a fan of aerosal sunscreens, just don't feel like I get enough coverage.

by sarah_m Friday, August 19, 2011 at 09:31PM Report as inappropriate

I don't like using sun screen directly, it's so greasy, but I buy products with spf in them.

by Bon_Bon Sunday, August 14, 2011 at 11:19PM Report as inappropriate

No matter what I get, I have to make sure it's the "kindest" type I can since my kids have sensative skin.

by MissPurple Wednesday, July 13, 2011 at 03:57PM Report as inappropriate

The DDF is discontinued, i miss it!

by elena62 Monday, May 9, 2011 at 01:40PM Report as inappropriate

I prefer natural and organic sunscreen products since you apply sunscreen everyday. You should be more conscious of ingredients.

by jewelpjm Tuesday, April 26, 2011 at 01:18PM Report as inappropriate

I loooove the Avon Skin So Soft Bug Guard Plus SPF 30! I have it in the kids variety too--which goes from blue to "clear" when you've rubbed it in. Smells good, repels bugs, and protects your skin. I also love the continuous spray lotions---super easy to use. And Shiseido's is pretty good too.

spray ons rock. [:

I love Shiseido!
