Heliocare Gel
Heliocare gel is the perfect sunblock for people with sensitive oily skin. I've tried numerous brands: Neutrogena, Clinique, Shiseido and VMV but they all caused my skin to breakout. I was about to give up in looking for my perfect sun solution when my dermatologist told me to give Heliocare a try. It was quite pricey but well worth it. Since it's gel based, it's non comodegenic (doesn't block pores). However, application is not as easy as the traditional sunblock. You have to spread the product really well to get sufficient coverage. Removing Heliocare is hassle free, though. In fact, I don't use makeup remover anymore if I have only Heliocare on my face. I just wash my face with my regular facial wash and viola! my face is clean! Compared to other sunblocks, Heliocare is quite expensive- mine cost me around $48 USD but it's well worth it. It takes me months to use up a tube so I'm willing to part with some of my shopping money for sun protection. As an added bonus, it smells quite nice.
