    Best face sunscreen

    This is my favorite face sunscreen ever. It feels very smooth on the skin. My skin texture looks smoother (i think there is a “bluring” effect). It doesn’t feel oily on the skin. I can reapply it during the day and it feels nice. I can use foundation on top (some sunscreens don’t do very well with foundations).

    the best sunscreen!

    I am loving this sunscreen! It is so light on my skin and does not leave me feeling oily. It is really nice to put on before I do my makeup. It has a very subtle nude tint that rubs in really well. Nice clean sunscreen smell.

    Not my favorite, but still good for some…

    Let me start by saying that I love the Shiseido brand and have owned several products from their various lines. I currently own a spray sunscreen from them for spf50 and it sets my makeup; I love it.
    Now let’s talk about the Shiseido Urban Environment Oil-Free UV Protector. I have used this product over the last few weeks in a variety of ways to see what worked best for me. When I used my serum, moisturizer and then applied this; it didn’t work well for me and there was pilling and face felt patchy. When I applied this just over a light moisturizer, it worked better. I did feel there was a slight whiteish cast, but corrected with makeup. I feel that this works great as a makeup primer with spf. Face was smooth and ready for makeup. It did dry out my skin a little also, but it did not break me out at all, and that happens sometimes with lotion type spf.
    Bottom line- I will not be repurchasing as I prefer the application and ease of their spray spf. However, this product will work well for those that use a primer daily, have oily skin or break out often and prefer this type of application versus the spray.

    A wonderful sunscreen

    First, I would say that I love the brand Shiseido, it meets most of my needs. As for this specific sunscreen, it works well on me, the only problem is that it's only 30ml.

    Great sunscreen to use with makeup

    This is a great SPF to use daily and is very wearable underneath makeup. I like that it has a matte effect after putting it on but doesn't make your skin feel powdery or tight/dry. The product itself is clear and it doesn't leave a white finish on your face.

    Really good, a little pricy!

    This sunscreen is perfect for oily prone skin in the summertime as well as it makes a good primer base for makeup. Whenever I apply this my makeup always seems to last longer and my face less oily. It does leave a very minor white cast but it's actually works really well for me because it seems to brighten up my skin tone

    Perfect skin perfect and sunscreen all in one

    This product blends out beautifully with just your fingers. It’s great for all seasons and provides effectively from UV rays with sufficient SPF protection. It is a very light skin tint, so possibly move 1 shade up than your regular colour to see more coverage .

    Game changer!

    So I was looking for a face product that would protect my skin from harmful U.V. rays without giving me the typical greasy look and feel of most facial sunscreens. After unsuccessfully trying many products, I found this holy-grail product! I have an oily t-zone and by the end of the day my skin and makeup usually looks like a hot mess. No matter how much prep and primers I use. This product actually has a mattifying effect on my face without feeling dry or tacky. I will ever go back to using any other product! Truly a game - changer!

    AMAZING !!!

    This is the only sunscreen that doesn't give me breakouts especially I have sensitive skin. I like how it feels on my face and it has no fragrance. Although the bottle is small, you only need a small portion for your face. I use it every single day and it usually lasts me a good few months.

    An Amazing UV protector for your face

    Shiseido 42 - Urban Environment Oil Free Face Protector - Water Resistant
    This is the best sunscreen that I have ever used on my face.
    The product goes on very smoothly and leaves your face feeling a slight powdery finish.
    It has a fresh scent.
    Your face never feels sweaty or greasy, always a clean fresh finish even when being in the sun for hours.
    I bought this product at Sephora for a very reasonable price.
    I will continue to use it all summer.
    Worth the look of youth and the prevention of Skin Cancers.
