Great face sunscreen
I use this on my face all summer. I’ll put it on in the morning and even if i sweat i still don’t get burnt with this on. It’s not oily or greasy so my face doesn’t look like a bowling ball
Good daily sunscreen
I have dry skin and it can get sensitive I have found with certain sunscreens. I had no reaction to Clinique Super City Block, and while it is tinted, the color didn't streak or look odd on me, even though I am pasty.
It's not fully liquid, just slightly creamy, which I find much easier to apply. It smells like sunscreen though not overpoweringly so. As someone who burns really easily, I like it for daily use, though I find it needs to be reapplied often if you get sweaty or are outside in direct light a lot. It washes off without a lot of scrubbing or irritations so I guess that's the compromise.
My go-to daily sunscreen
I use Super City Block year round because I use an Rx retinoid for acne, which makes your skin more likely to be damaged by sun exposure. I've tried many different tinted and non tinted daily facial suncreens in the past, including Smashbox CC cream, Clinique City Block Sheer, and Roche Posay mineral face suncreen. This is my favourite. It is unscented and does not feel thick or goopy. It has a very light tint, but it's almost negligible so I wouldn't be concerned if you're worried about it being too dark or too light for your skin tone. It layers well under makeup but is also completely wearable on its own. I have very acne prone and sensitive skin and this product does not make my skin burn, itch, or break out. It's on the expensive side at $37 CAD a pop (Sephora.ca), but I think it's worth it.
Go buy this product and make sure you use it every day. This is so sincerely what I feel about this product. Have been buying it for almost 5 years. One tube lasts a crazy good amount of time. Even if I spend all day outside under the sun, my face doesn`t get a sunburn or sun spots. When I cleanse it at nights, I see the whole city on my cotton pad :)) No need to say further, this product proves itself worthy buying at all levels.
Clinique Super City Block Oil-Free Daily Face Protector Broad Spectrum SPF 40 is a High-level daily sunscreen in a sheer, weightless formula. Protects against sun and environmental damage with broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sun block and antioxidants. For all skins, even the most sensitive.This will not irritate sensitive skin because it uses Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide as its active ingredients to get the SPF rating. The unique thing about this sunscreen is that those ingredients typically leave a chalky, white cast on tan or dark skins.Clinique brilliantly addresses this by adding a tint to the sunscreen. Wear alone or as an invisible makeup primer.This sunscreen goes on so smoothly onto my skin. It seems to really sink in and not make my face greasy at all. It felt nice and not too heavy at all. One of my favorite sunblocks.
