on different areas of their face? Lately ive been using Bioderma spray under my eyes and above top lip.
Why? Because i can  No really, i use mineral makeup so cant use the bioderma all over ( i dont apply makeup under eyes or above lips) sometimes I'll apply it to forehead too as its often looks clear and dosent need makeup.
So I just apply a physical sunscreen to rest of my face, cheeks mostly. Im prone to a bit of redness/irritation in the cheek area and find physical sunscreens better for that area.
So in 20 yrs i might have a half wrinkly face |

I guess I kinda do, if you consider mineral makeup as sunscreen  I find virtually all sunscreens too oily to use on my t-zone so I only use MMU there otherwise I look very shiny  & use my regular sunscreen on my cheecks, neck etc. Apart from that I obviously use a seperate SPF lip balm product on my lips too. |

i use 1 sunscreen product for my face and another for my lips.  but i never try using more then 1 sunscreen product for my face @ any one time.
unless you consider the sunscreen (SPF) content that is found inside the liquid foundation and loose powder that i use.
just curious, will there be any impact if you were to use 2 different sunscreen product on the face? for people with sensitive and combination skin, is it advisable? |

| I do. I use Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protection Lotion all over my face, but use Sofina Nuance Up around my eyes because I think the Shiseido is a little too matte and drying for that area. |

I use two - SVR 50B on my face and neck, and Sofina around the eyes. My eyes are very sensitive and did not like SVR.
I also use a 3rd one on my body - legs and hands. I drive for about an hour to work and then need to walk a few blocks - so these areas are exposed to sunlight.

| I usually use a different sunscreen around my eye area that what I use on the rest of my face. Even though I should, I never use any sunblock on my nose because I can't stand any extra shine there and the pores on my nose tend to clog up so easily. I prefer to just leave it free from products. |

| My situation is a bit odd. I've used sunscreen for over 13 years. Even still at 32 I saw sun damage come to the surface on my face. So...I want to make sure that I am definately protected. I use two sunscreens...3 if you count my mineral makeup. I used the SVR spf 50 under my eyes. I then mix it with the Glycolix (17% zinc oxide) and put that on my face. After all that I put on my mineral make-up. |

| Yes, I use Clarins Wrinkle Control Eye Area Sunscreen SPF 30 as my eyes are so sensitive to sunscreen products and this doesn't make them sting @ all. I also dust Colorescience Sunforgettable SPF 30 powder over my sunscreen or makeup. |

| I use physical sunscreens but not all the ones I've bought have I ended up really liking. So the current one that I like gets applied to my face and neck. The ones that I don't love get used up on my chest, etc. |

| I use MMU as my sunscreen on my face and traditional sunscreen on my body. Last year I was in Hawaii and I wore a waterproof sunscreen on my body and my MMU on my face. My body fried, but my face did not! Hmmmm, maybe I should just wear foundation all over my body. LOL |

| I use different sunblocks for the area around eyes and face. Sometimes, I can add different sunblock at the end of my work before I leave if I don't have with me the one that I put on in the morning. |

Wow, that is quite amazing! What type of MMU did you use?
I am using one SPF 58 for my face and MMU on top to get rid of the shine. Sometimes I worry about clogged pores because I feel I am layering too many things on my face.  |
