Hello All,
I am trying to find a great natural moisturizer/sunscreen that won't clog pores, non-greasy, etc...(everyone's dream, right?)
So I ran across this brand that doesn't seem to have many reviews at all. There are two products that I am interested in buying, but they are quite expensive so I thought I would see if anyone could give me some advice.
I either want the Coola MineralFace Matte Finish Suncare spf 30 or the Coola MineralFace Tinted Suncare spf 20. I am thinking that the Matte finish would be better, but want the added benefits of having a tint so that I don't have to layer on a bunch of products.
I want this for everyday use and have combo/ oily t-zone, breakout prone skin. Any suggestions? |

Is SPF20 enough for your lifestyle and are you sure you will be able to layer enough on to get the full protection without it looking heavy?
Have you tried the Devita Rx Ultrasolar 50? Completely different animal to the other Devitas which I understand are quite dewy/ too heavy for some. The blurb says "This formulation is created specifically for those sensitive to breakouts but is an excellent choice for anyone interested in preventing the damaging effects of the sun.
Actives: Zinc Oxide 19% (Transparent), Titanium Dioxide 8%
Inactives: Purified water, Aloe Vera Gel, Capric/Caprylic Triglycerides (derived from Coconut Oil), Stearic Acid, Vegetable Glycerin, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Hyaluronic Acid, Glyceryl Stearate (from Vegetable Oil), Soy Lecithin, Vitamin E (Acetate), Allantoin, Comfrey Root Extract, Grape Seed Extract." |

I am leaning toward the spf 30 Matte Finish. I am just wondering if anyone has tried these before because I have no idea if it looks heavy or not. I emailed them for samples, but they said to go to a store location for samples (which there are very few places that carry it....i live in Downtown Chicago and there is only 1 place!)
I think the brand is rather new and that is why there are not many retailers or reviews.
Has anyone tried this brand before?? (I only heard about it through my health insurance provider because their products are reimbursable through my FSA plan) |
