Alba Botanica Fragrance-Free Mineral Facial Sunscreen SPF 10 : Apply Daily

Yes I'm still writing about sunscreen in September! It was 80 degrees today!

There's a lot for me to love about Alba Botanica's facial mineral sunscreen. First, it's fragrance-free, which is essential for me. Next, it uses minerals, such as titanium dioxide, rather than chemicals to block the sun's harmful rays. Third, because it's made out of natural ingredients, I'm not allergic to it. Finally, it doesn't leave my face shiny, even hours after application.

Alba Botanica's developed a wonderful product here for people with sensitive skin, allergies, and respiratory issues. I'm probably the most reactive person I know, and I've never had even the slightest irritation using this product. I also like this sunscreen because it's never caused me to break out, even when I've left it on for eight or more hours.

Now a favorite in my facial sunscreen lineup, AB's mineral facial sunscreen for sensitive skin is effective and just what I need for my hour-long exercise outings.

Eco Creds: natural ingredients such as lavender, aloe, and green tea; no animal testing; 100% vegetarian (but don't eat it); paraben-free; EU Cosmetics Directive Compliant.

Bottom Line: I never used to understand why my face needed a separate sunscreen than my body. Now I get it. I can stay out in the sun as long as I want, as protected as I want, and never have a shiny face.--E.D. (Aug 09)
