If you are looking for a waterproof, sweatproof, awesome sunscreen, you have found it. I am always outside, working out, in the water and I was looking for something with zinc oxide in it, because I have a few tattoos and nothing is worse on a tattoo then the sun. Zinc Oxide is such a great block for your skin and tattoo's, but it's usually thick and cakey and white. This SkinCeuticals Sport UV Defense is perfect because it has the zinc oxide but you can't even tell you're wearing anything.

Happy customer here!

This product was recommended to me by my surgeon to help protect a healing scar I have under my left eye. I surf a lot and get a lot of sun from that, so I also needed a sunblock that is waterproof. Other sunblocks I have used that are supposedly waterproof have been too oily and the water caused it to get into my eyes which would sting. The skinceuticals sport uv defense spf 45 works well. A little bit goes a long way. At first it is really white but it soaks in quickly. I did not have a problem with my eyes stinging when wearing this in the water.

My dermatologist gave me a sample of this product and said she likes it because of the zinc oxide. Either way, I was skeptical as always with sunblocks (esp. those with higher SPF), because even the top brands are either too greasy-feeling and leave my face super shiny even when they are "oil-free," or leave a whitish tint that makes me look like a ghost or like I'm wearing make-up two shades lighter than my complexion. Anyway, not only does this product leave zero residue and shininess, my skin absorbs it immediately. No waiting around to apply my face powder when I'm in a rush. It's pricey, but I don't think I can ever go back to other brands.

This is the best sunscreen on the market. It provides excellent skin protection. It never runs into the eyes of the wearer, regardless of how sweaty one gets. It is fragarence free and applies easily. I highly recommend this product. Skinceuticals Sport UV Defense Active Use Broad-spectrum UVA/UVB Sunscreen SPF 45, 3-Ounce Tube

I have tried every sunblock on the market. As a tennis player in So FL I use a lot of sunblock, especially in the summer. This one is the best for protection and for sensitive skin. It is too expensive and I get every last bit out of the tube by cutting it in half when it won't come out any other way.

I'm glad to see it's available outside of the dermatologist office where they charge $10 more than amazon.

I have used the Skinceuticals sunscreen for years and it's a great product. My husband now also uses it daily. The shipment was received within 55 to 6 days after placing my order. I love dealing with Amazon!

I use this as a moisturizer and have for many years. It's great under my makeup.

Now that the weather is warming up, I wanted a really good UVA/UVB sunblock to prevent age spots, wrinkles, and sun damage. This is a thick, full coverage product that completely covers your skin. I've been putting it on my face, neck and hands every day for several weeks and am satisfied that it's protecting my skin from the sun without clogging pores or causing other skin issues. It does have a slight white tint, so I mix in a little bit of foundation when I put it on my face and that works very well.

I began using this product several years ago on the recommendation of a skin specialist. I had very dark melasma/hyperpigmentation on both cheeks. Being allergic to hydroquinone it was recommended that I use the skin ceutical products. The first thing I liked about this product is that it was easily absorbed, unlike other sunscreens that are too thick or remain white on the skin. My mature skin loves the moisturing effect and now years later there is very little evidence of the melasma. I usually have to point it out to people. To some the price of this product may seem a little extravagant but a little goes a long way. Depending on your usage this tube can last a few months.

This sunscreen is the best but expensive. Works great and feels great on the skin compared with other sunscreens. I like that it is uses all natural zinc oxide instead of a load of chemicals.
