Hello!

When I use anything cream realated, my skin feels like it’s suffocating.
I’ve been lucky to find a gel-based moisturiser for day and night use from Kmart but I’m wanting to find a similar product for sunscreen.
I can’t use the cream ones, because, again, they suffocate my skin.
Does anyone have good, affordable recomendations for a gel based sunscreen for skin, and one for lips?
Thanks!

  • I find moogoo products to be gentle on my skin. Try to patch test before you commit to covering your face, just to prevent a full on reaction.


  • I’m currently using an organic and natural range called eco-tan and I absolutely love it. There are so many variations to the products to suit everyone’s skin type. I definitely recommend you check it out and see if it works for you. I love the gel cleanser and glory oil


  • It really is so important to product test any product that is used on skin. I always test products that are to be used because I have found that even some products that are recommended for sensitive skin types do not work on my skin. It is also a very good idea to read lots of reviews from a range of sources too.


  • I have heard MooGoo is very gentle and natural on your skin. Personally I can’t use sunscreen at all on my face, I just wear a wide-brimmed hat all the time and avoid going outside in peak UV time. It’s the price I have to pay to avoid getting an ugly reaction on my face


  • I do understand what you mean by ‘skin not breathing’ and always look for products that are light and easy but also work on skin to both protect and nourish it. I buy and purchase Cancer Council sunscreen because it is light on my skin, affordable for my budget and works well too.


  • I use Kiehl’s brand and i have found this to be amazing on my skin. It is expensive but worth every penny. They have a gel based moisturisers but not sure if they do one with sunscreen in it. Worth looking into though. I highly recommend this brand as i have very sensitive skin and it feels amazing on my skin.


  • I was also going to recommend the Nutrogena one too as it is affordable while some can be $50. The reason I haven’t tried the others. I can’t help with the lip cream though. Good luck.


  • Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel Lotion SPF50 is awesome.
    There is actually the entire skincare range including a cleanser.
