Reviews For CeraVe Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 50 Face Lotion

Great zinc-based sunscreen

I started using this product after exhaustively researching sunscreens. I have melasma so I need to wear sunscreen every day. I need to use enough to really cover my face, and my dermatologist recommended a zinc based sunscreen and many leave my face with a white cast. This is the best Ive tried. It goes on smoothly, absorbs quickly and if you rub it in well, does not look chalky. It does not irritate my sensitive skin or cause breakouts as some sunscreens do. I use it every day. The only thing keeping me from giving it 5 stars is that it literally smells like paint. The odor dissipates quickly but the first day I used it, I panicked and thought I had applied glue instead of sunscreen on my face. But, since the odor vanishes as soon as you rub it in, its not an issue for me.
