Can anyone recommend an SPF 30 sunscreen for the face that isn't greasy. I'd like to be able to wear make-up over it. In the winter I use SPF 15 in my moisturizer but now that spring is here I need something a little stronger.

Thanks!

I have found that California Baby sunblocks and all the Philosophy moisturizers with sunblock to be very light and not greasy at all. I have worn make-up over them without an issue.

I'd find/stick to a moisturizer with a 30SPF instead of a moisturizer and an additional layer of 30SPF sunblock. But my face is quick to breakout so I'm really careful about what I use.

Yup, I'd love for one product to do it all.

I tried Aveeno but it irritated my skin. I've also tried "Faces" (I think it's by neutrogena) but I didn't love that one either.

I like Eucerin sensitive skin everyday protection SPF 30 face lotion. It is inexpensive, you can find it at Walgreens, CVS, that sort of place. It's not greasy (unless you put on too much) and is not fomulated with avobenzone which I am super sensitive to. The only downside is that it has that distinctive old school sunscreen smell, but I'd rather smell that than some fragrance added in an attempt to disguise it.

I am reading a lot of good things about a brand called Devita.
