I need a good sunscreen with spf 30 or higher. I'll be starting my chemical peels soon, so I'll need some good sun protection! Anyways, my main concern is clogging pores. I never wear sunscreen on my face because of this reason! Any recs for a good sunscreen that won't make me break out?

 
I'm so horrible that I don't really keep up with who has what regarding sunscreens for the face. I can only mention Stila Skin Visor in SPF30 or SPF50. There's a thread somewhere (I'll look and add the link when I find it) about the same thing. Best of luck to you chica!

 
im using Mary Kay Ultimate sunblock spf 30, its a really good price for 4.5 oz for $9.50, its light and doesn't leave any film, sucks though cause it is oily, i just put powder over it or wear matte moisturizer.

Have you tried the MK Oil Mattifier w/ it? I wonder if that would help?

How about trying Shiseido's Extra Smooth Sun Protection Cream SPF 36 (can be used as a pre-makeup cream) or Ultimate Sun Protection Cream SPF 55. Both are recommended by The Skin Cancer Foundtion. I have yet to try out these. As of now I'm using Shiseido's UV White Control and Protect Base Cream Sunscreen SPF 25 cause it prevents perspiration, water, and sebum from wearing away my foundation.

 
My HG facial sunscreen is Sunsense Daily Face spf 60. It has a sheer tint so no need for make up (huge plus!), is suitable for all skin types and doesn't clog pores. It's also really good value at £9.99

 
thanks girls!

kam621, i know that neutragena makes a sunblock called

neutragena dry touch. i've used it and its very good. i'm pretty

sure it come s in spf 30 & 45. i'm not sure if its fragrance-free

 
I also love neutrogena dry touch sunblock. I only use it when I go to the beach, I think spf 30 or 45 might cause my face break out if I use it everyday. I love SkinCeuticals Spf 20 Sunblock, it absorb into the skin very well and does not make u feel oily, good for everyday uses.

 
DHC White Sunscreen with SPF 25. It's not quite 30 but it is good. 1oz is $23.

They also have Dual Defense which is a moisturizer and sunscreen SPF 25. 3.5oz is $27

 
I use Neostrata face sunscreen and I love it !! It's got no oil in it, which means no breakouts !

 
i really like coppertone faces. i actually use it on my whole body because it's the only sunscreen that doesn't break me out.

 
My HG is Biotherm's SPF30 from the new line, it's light for oily skins and the smell is heaven not like others! Here's how it looks, the old one are white not orange:

I HIGHLY recommend phytobiodermie a swiss brand, that is also anti-wrinkle and the spf is actually greater than spf 30, i think like 35, but its also written in the swiss equivalent which is a lower number just a note, but it does not grease AT ALLL and i use it as a makeup base too after my moisturizer, i've used it forevverrrrrr and love it
