- ISDIN Eryfotona Actinica Zinc Oxide sunscreen with 100% mineral UV filter Broad Spectrum SPF 50+, No White Cast, Suitable for Sensitive Skin, 3.4 Fl Oz

As a man, this is the only sunscreen I like to use on my face on a daily basis. I live in FL and have to wear something and this is NOT greasy and can use it exercising as well. It is expensive but it is better than burning eyes, greasy skin and smelling like a coconut drink.

I could rave all day about this incredible sun screen! It goes on seamlessly, creamy smooth, invisible once applied, comforting to my skin, non irritating mineral ( not chemical) and fragrance free to me. I apply Isdin liberally on my face, neck chest every single day. The bottle is LARGE 3.4 ounces many expensive brands are 1.5 oz; although it is pricey it goes further than many smaller $40.00 sunscreens. If you are interested in keeping your skin healthy, read about ISDIN and decide for yourself. I’m reviewing this product from my perspective since the results have been better than expected. Isdin sun screen helps IMPROVE past skin damage as well as protecting you from daily sun damage with broad spectrum 50+, 100% mineral with DNA repairsomes water resistant. Purchase tinted or non tinted ultralight emulsion. I mix the two for my fair complexion and it gives me a glow.

This sunscreen is quite expensive but after some research I decided to go for it. I’m a fan of some of the Colorscience products (also $$$) and the ISDIN feels just like the Colorscience NO SHOW mineral sunscreen (which is lovely) sample I received. I’m thinking that ISDIN may have been the original formula - was developed in 1945 and has similar products in it’s line as Colorscience; did it come first? So why did I order this and not Colorscience NO SHOW? Because since it was nearly if not identical, and it was less expensive by over $5.00 per ounce coming in a 3.4 oz container. The fact that I also had a $50 credit helped too! Will I buy it again? I’m keeping track of how long it lasts, will my dark spots really disappear (I also use a Vit C+ serum, so ?) will I get a gift card before I run out :) The Neutrogena SPF 60+ with Vit E Moisterizing Serum at $17 is also great and have been using it for 2 years (chemical not mineral). I’ve watched my husband and one of our sons go through the scare of having melanomas, extensive surgeries, radiation, etc. (son is in remission from metastatic melanoma that metastasized into brain cancer!), so yes, I will probably buy this again. And again. P.S. The only con, I realized the other day - I’m one of those people that open my products when most people think they’re used up and throw away, that get out a tiny spatula and scrape out the remains - sometimes that can be a weeks worth of product or more! The ISDIN bottle will have to be cut in half and the pieces stored in a plastic bag. And oh yes, I will! Update: This ISDIN lasted a 6-1/2 months used every single morning (and I did not have to cut it open - every last drop came out). I’m going back to the Neutrogena because it is a higher SPF, is a serum, acts like a primer, 2 bottles are the same amount as in ISDIN @ half the price (on sale). I had trouble with pilling with the ISDIN. It goes OVER a moisturizer and didn’t play well with any foundation if I decided to use one. That might not happen on someone else. I can’t say it lessened any dark spots because I also use a vitamin C serum that also takes care of that. It may have helped. My dermatologist is happy with either one. If you insist on or just prefer a physical sunscreen this is a very good one, and I would still recommend it.

I've tried many different sunscreen brands and they always left my face sticky, and broke my sensitive/oily/acne prone skin. This was recommended by my dermatologist and I haven't experienced any breakout and skin doesn't feel sticky after use. The product itself isn't thick or greasy.

I had heard so much about this sunscreen brand and its products that I decided to try it. I’m a die-hard sunscreen user and have tried over 50 brands thus far, so although I cannot tell you about the company's claims, I can tell you how it felt to have worn it daily with multiple applications. Because of retinol, I am more diligent than most about sunscreen application, and for a mineral sunscreen, it glides on smoothly onto my moisturized skin. It leaves a slight white cast on my olive complexion, but that’s not a deal breaker. I can tolerate it around my eyes, and I love that it is 3.4oz, compared to the available 1oz size other brands come in. The issue I do have is that as the day wears on, it dries out my skin quite a bit. Without fail, I have ended my days with slight flaking around my mouth and sometimes my nose. This meant that I could not reapply as my skin needed hydration that this product did not offer. Also, it seems to settle into fine lines causing me to check my appearance several times a day to wipe away the residue. It is reminiscent of SkinCeuticals Physical Fusion, which I had the same concerns with, and had to stop using regularly. Overall, quality mineral sunscreen in need of moisturizing ingredients. I will continue to use it, but only on days when I am home.

Great product
