I use the Dove moisturizer as an every day sunscreen and do not like it very much - I'm just using up the bottle for now. Evian was very light, an excellent moisturizer and has SPF15. Neutrogena dry-touch (spf 30) is better when you know you'll be out a bit longer.
I'm really interested in all of these really-high spf's, 45+. LaRoche Posay has an spf 60, but most of the MUA reviews say it's super greasy.

I use DDF when I need something in a pinch (ie. am out of my perscription stuff). I like it texture wise better than the perscription, but it has weaker barriers.

Bobbi Brown brightening moisturiser with SPF 25, though it can do the white cast thing, thanks to the presence of titanium dioxide.

When I finish that (BB moist) I'm planning on purchasing Ole Henrikson's herbal day creme SPF 15. This was the best daytime sun protection moisturiser I've used, and didn't leave my face like an oilslick and no white cast!

sunblock and the lotions with SPF will do the same thing hon....
I personally use the DOVE everyday and I love it. Not greasy at all...I actually have some weird reaction to Cetaphil's (which is a non-greasy one too) that made my face BURN. So I had to stop using that one...
Clinique makes great sunscreen products for face but that's gonna cost a bit more than drugstore brands.

Whats a stable sunscreen?

Photostability is the the ability of a sunscreen to resist becoming useless over time due to different light wavelengths. Essentially if your sunscreen is not stable, you're at risk for many of the same detrimental effects of the sun as if you were not wearing sunscreen at all - things like photoaging and DNA mutations.
Scary stuff, thanks for the heads up, Chelsea.

I sell La Roch at my work and all of our patients LOVE the spf 60.. no one has complained that it is greasy. some have however complained that the spf 30 is greasy and we dont sell as many of those.
I however LOVE the spf 20 by biomedic which is a part of la roche posay you can order it from them. We sell TONS of those people just love it. I wear it under my makeup everyday and it makes me feel nice. haha. the only thing is that it is a tad bit thick.. so i do half that and half of either la roches hydraphase (moisterizer) or the active c (vitamin c) which is our fastest selling product besides cleanser and whenever someone uses it for the first time they come back raving about it (talking about active c now) because it feels like it gives your skin a "drink of water" and makes you feel radiant! for real i love it! haha just had to share.
