No need to pay for a brand name
Have you looked at the price on this stuff? DO NOT BUY...you can get an effective zinc-based sunscreen for a third the price. No, less than that: the stuff I replaced it with was 1/3 the price for twice the amount. So...make that "for a sixth the price."
The product was recommended by my dermatologist, who wishes to see me cover my body from hairline to toenails with zinc sunscreen. And she's right: since I've started using products with zinc, the brown spots have begun to fade away, the actinic keratoses have stopped popping up left and right, and, amazingly, the facial complexion looks noticeably better. She sells it out of her office -- I came to Amazon hoping to get a better price, but nooo...they must have some sort of deal to fix the price across the board.
After I stumbled across a zinc sunscreen product, made by a well-known major toiletry manufacturer, in a local supermarket and discovered it works just as well for a fraction of the retail price, I felt like a sucker for having spent the money on this one.
Read the ingredients; write them down if you can't remember them. Then look around for the same stuff under a different brand name...and a different price. ;-)
