Cream of the crop

After a skin cancer diagnosis, I was advised to wear a higher SPF. I found the Chanel one by accident while purchasing another product. I am so glad I did! It is very lightweight, & spreads easily. I use over my face & neck. It doesn't interfere w/ any make-up you may use. However the best feature, in my opinion, is that it is fragrance free -in fact has no smell at all....I dislike that telltale sunscreen scent, & this doesn't have it. I wish Chanel made a version for the body as well! Worth every penny!

UV Essentiel Complete Sunscreen SPF 50

This sunscreen leaves me slightly greasy when first applied, but after a while, it wears off. It also does not leave behind a white cast which is always a plus. However, whenever I use this, my face will start to feel tight by midday, so this is a bit too drying for me.

Lightweight and perfect

This is an amazing product! Vert lightweight and makes your skin look flawless! Smells beautiful and doesn't give that white look like most sunscreens do. It can be used as a perfect primer with your foundation. Does not clog pores and cause breakouts!

BEST SUNSCREEN I HAVE EVER USED!

I've always hated using SPF- I've always felt like it clogged my pores, didn't soak in well, made me break out, and left me shiny. Until someone introduced me to THIS gem. It soaks in immediately, leaves a matte finish, and is all around amazing. It is definitely runny/liquidy, so be aware. Also, a little goes a long way- a dollop the size of a quarter should be more than sufficient. I use this after my moisturizer and before my primer. You will not be disappointed!

Feels Divine

Taking sun protection more seriously after having a skin cancer diagnosis! The over-the-counter products seem to irritate my sensitive skin, so I tried this, as I love Chanel make-up and cleansers. It's lightweight and seems to be working!! :)

Sun screen lotion

This is the best sunscreen that I've ever used for my face. It is light (like the vitalumiere aqua foundation), and does not cause any skin irritation. The only downside is that it has that generic perfume-y and sunscreen smell. Otherwise, it is overall a great product. I never leave the house without applying it.

my go-to

I've tried a lot of sunscreens over the last couple years and haven't stayed with any of them until now. Very lightweight formula, works well over just serum in the summer, under makeup, and doesn't give you that all-day summer oil slick feeling. It doesn't leave a white cast (or glitter - hello estee lauder daywear sunscreen) and I consider broad spectrum spf 50 a must every day.
