Sunblocks
Part of my everyday routine is putting sunblock on my face and arms. When I was younger I use Dermplus sunblock - I can't remember why I stopped using this frankly there are no cons about this brand and really affordable.
After I was using Shiseido sun protection lotion SPF50 the one in the blue bottle since I am usually loyal to a product if it does not give me irritation. I used 2 bottles of these.
PRO : I can really feel and see the sunblock. really waterproof especially if love to swim or go to the beach.
CONS: Hard to remove and leave a white cast. Brand is expensive around P1000+  

Neutrgena Ultra Sheer - Dry touch sunblock SPF 50 I think they have this on different SPF levels. I didn't have problems with this until the 2nd tube. I am not sure if they changed formulation or I didn't get the right one. Second bottle gives a mild sting on my face, though does not make my red itchy. Skin on my face is normal, I am not sensitive. So this ended up for arms and body use only.

 Estee Lauder Cyber White SPF 30 My face looks glowy after application but I think it has blue micro fine glitters. If I use this too long, my face eventually starts to itch. If its just for special days, I think it could work. But I just finished the tube up on my arm. I am not sure if this is still available  

SHU UEMURA UV armor high protection face cream SPF 50 I love this sunblock really light weight, no white cast, easy to rinse off at night. I am not sure if it really comes in a set but when we got it in dutyfree SA said it was cheaper if I got the 2in1 bottle. Very light on the face, not sticky. Easy to wash. Only con I would think is the price. Last sunblock I have tried is  

Shiseido Urban Environment UV protection cream SPF 50 I think they have this on 2 SPF levels 35 and 50. I am one of those people thinking that I need very high SPF so I always chose the higher one, which is not always better because high SPF sunblocks could leave a whitecast on your face. I love this sunblock as well, almost identical to shu's but a little oilier. and as most shiseido items. This is quite expensive. but if will only be used for the face, it would last you 6-8months. I think most of these sunblocks reviewed are unscented. so you do not smell like your going to the beach after application. How about you?  

What sunblock do you use?
