It's okay
Review by Sabine

This moisturiser feels really nice on your skin and it hydrates very well. However, when I applied it the product left my skin looking really shiny and greasy, despite the description saying it is non-greasy. If you don't mind blotting your skin with a tissue to remove the shine, this still is a decent sunscreen. Since the other comments didn't mention this though, maybe this is just me.Product Rating

Can't live without
Review by V

Having sensitive skin, prone to breakouts that is also dry I was desperate to find a sunscreen I could use every day that didn't feel greasy on my skin or irritating. I never thought I'd find it and tried countless paula-recommended products from other lines (even importing from abroad!) with little success, as well as trying the Paula's Choice moisturisers with SPF for dry skin but they were just not moisturising enough and my skin appeared flaky and dry. I originally bought this sunscreen for use on holiday all over my body because it was a large size and had forgotten about it for a while before I tried it at home a while later on my face and was amazed - it's the perfect sunscreen I've been looking for! Absolutely moisturising and leaves a pleasant sheen (but not white cast) on my skin so that I don't even always need make up! It keeps my skin super soft all day and works better than my normal mosituriser, never stinging or irritating. Fabulous. Cannot live without. Absolute absolute favourite product! PLEASE don't ever discontinue! (Posted on 23/01/2012)Product Rating -
Perfect for high UV
Review by Raluca

I use this sunscreen on mountain trips where for long distance walks on high altitudes UV rays are much stronger. This product was the perfect choice to protect my skin for whole day. A must-have for such cases. Thanks Paula! (Posted on 05/09/2010)Product Rating
