Sunblock
In theory I could be a beach bunny since I luuuv feeling the sun on my face, but I tan too easily.
Case in point, I get dark just walking across the street to grab lunch during work. Since summer is around the corner there is no avoiding the uv rays. Sooo, can anyone recommend a good sunblock for regular use and for the face? It should be one that: is good for very dry skin, doesn't have that sunblock smell, and is not sticky. All suggestions welcome!

for body:
i like lubriderm spf 15 for daily. not sticky, sheer.
for face:
-i use shiseido uv white spf 15 for my daily (extremely light, not greasy at all, nice scent)
-neutrogena ultra sheer dry touch spf 30 is great for summer. like the name, skin feels powdery/sheer, not sticky. no scent either.
-oil of olay is a good drugstore brand. i like the oil free sensitive non-scented.
Neutrogena makes great sunblock and lots of dermatologists recommend it. Even though the product claims it's waterproof, you must reapply it after excessive sweating and taking a dip in the water. =)
um. except ckny tans at her cubicle at work! face - Peter Thomas Rother Ultra lite w/ titanium dioxide mixes instantly w/ no greasy residue, and its spf 30. yayee. Shiseido makes an spf 60 one, but I don't like the weird feeling on my face and hands I get all day.
neutrogena makes an ultra-dry sunblock that's really good for body.
currently i'm using hawaiian tropic's Faces with spf 35 for the face. i wear sunblock every day to hopefully prevent more freckles, starting in 2nd grade.
how about me? i think you can hide in my shadow
dude, use Purpose. it does not smell like suntan lotion, not greasy and it's spf 35. my dermatologist is the one recommended it back in 7th grade.
hi!!!
HaHa, like husband and wife. A happy Pakistani family. Anyways, should go with the higher spf. Also, get a straw hat, it helps. . . .
