COMPARISON CHART Solbar Zinc SPF 40 Hybrid SOLBAR Thirty SPF 30 Gel Solbar Fifty SPF 50 SOLBAR Zinc SPF 38 Solbar AVO SPF 35 Review: BEST SUNSCREEN FOR THE SUMMER - This is one of the best and safest sunscreens out there! I usually only use this during the summer and it works great! Make sure to apply this only when the skin is dry and it actually does not leave a white film on the skin. I have olive toned skin so most sunscreens make my skin look a very interesting color and most people that see me are like whoa are you sick? No it's just my sunscreen. Oh. I recommend only using a little if applying to the face. Like a dime or nickel size amount, because it can get greasy if too much is applied. It's a great sunscreen and has good safety ratings! Highly recommended! It also leaves my skin feeling hydrated but on the days when I have extremely dry skin, I use a moisturizer before and then wait a couple of minutes to let it be absorbed and then apply the sunscreen. I have to stress that use a little. When I first got it, I also had a very greasy face but then figured out to use less. With my skin tone, I usually do not have to worry about sun burns too often but I do tan very easily and this helps me not to be several shades darker by the end of summer and stay my natural color. Also the price is very good considering it is a better sunscreen then many other more expensive brands! I usually only use this during the spring and summer time and then in the cooler months switch to a lower spf sunscreen since I don't think I need one this high during the winter, and usually during the summer my major skin concern is to prevent peeling and severely dry skin because of the cold and wind! Review: Fabulous in so many ways! - This sunscreen - unlike so many others - does not leave you paste-y white. It blends into your skin nicely and can be worn easily under make-up or without. It remains on for the entire day. If you touch your face, it may feel a little goopy, but the look is fabulous. The sunscreen does its job in protecting you well throughout the day and can be reapplied if you're not wearing make-up. Another wonderful quality is that this product is wonderfully beneficial and healing to your skin. My dermatologist recommended it during a time when I was experiencing a lot of redness on my face due to allergies and sensitivities. I use this also after my monthly microderm appointment both during the day and at night as the product makes your skin incredibly soft and counteracts any redness. I have also found it useful during the winter when my skin becomes extremely dry as this sunscreen has wonderful moisturizing qualities. I used to buy this at my dermatologist office, but she has stopped carrying it. I search it out on the internet whenever I run out as I do not want to be without this product! ## Features - Hybrid sunscreen with SPF 40 protection–Combines mineral zinc oxide with UV filters for a lightweight texture, reduced white cast, and strong UVA/UVB defense.
