Hi. Currently using Clinique's Sun SPF face cream. Been using it for almost 9 months now. Doesnt make my face feel oily, and also none of the white bits that you're referring to.
Another brand which i know my beautician use is called True Solutions. It was specifically created to cater to the Australian weather. |

What do you think to the other spf's that i posted of, Firefox? |
LA Defense: aloe vera is one of my favourite ingredients and has proven anti-ageing properties, green tea has a good pedigree also. Not convinced that hydrolysed rice protein will do anything more than act as a humectant (hydrate). This would be my choice of the two - my bias being that I have sensitive skin so like a short ingredients list.
Smart Girls: don't see the point in adding titanium to get an SPF30, could have just used more micronised zinc. Not enough vitamin C to do anything given its position(s) in the ingredients list. A lot of fluffy extracts and oils that won't do much. I'm guessing that would be more difficult to remove, which might be a positive or negative attribute depending on your skincare routine and lifestyle.
The sunscreens most often recommended for their texture and finish are Devita, Burnout and Pratima. Of the three Devita most closely meet your criteria IMO. Might be worth your running an advanced search over on Skincaretalk forums on your two sunscreen contenders and any of the three I mentioned? There is a very active skin lightening community so it's highly likely those with darker skin tones who are serious about sun protection have commented on the transparency/ white cast.
If you try anything that you can purchase in the UK I'd be interested in your reviews. |
