Need I say more...

I have tried many sunscreens over the years and have a stong family history of melanoma. I tried this on a whim as I love and use many of Kate's other products and fell in love. It does not make me break out, leaves no white residue and works perfectly under makeup. I have had issues with other sunscreens making me feel "slick" and this did not do that at all. In fact, after a recent trip to a location with 90 degree weather, my face had no color, which is what I prefer, although I was in the sun the whole time. One pump is enough for face and neck so this lasts forever!

I live in Florida. I love the beach. That's the reason I moved here. Having said that, I also know that the sun I worship can be very damaging. Enter Kate Somerville. I have been using her SPF55 Serum religiously for 2 years now. Last time I had one of my bi-annual dermatologist appointments I had just returned from a 7 day cruise. She looked at my skin and said, "I'm glad to see you protected your skin so well". Kate's SPF55 is always in my beach bag. I put it on my face to neck including eyelids. No adverse reaction on my sensitive skin. Kate's products are really the best. I have tried many others thinking I could find something "cheaper" You get what you pay for. When I get to LA I can guarantee I will book an appointment at Kate's spa. That's on my bucket list - letting her team do their magic. Wish I was 30 so I could work under her and learn. What a brilliant woman. Read her book! Kate is the best!

I never knew how vital SPF's were to our daily lives until I had a class on how bad the sun damages our skin cells & collagen. I use to get sun blisters, sun breakouts and irritation all from the sun until I began using Kate's SPF....I never get sunspots, breakouts or blisters anymore. It truly covers the entire face w/ just one pump and completely protects your skin from all the sun's-badness! A must have for anyone and everyone!

no white face with this SPF

OMG. Yes I said it, OMG. This is by far the best SPF over a 30 that exists. Not only is it NOT greasy (I hate being a goop face) but it also leaves my face picture perfect without giving it that white/gray/blue tint (you know what I'm talking about my darker skin peeps). Finally I can protect without looking like a ghost or having a oil slick mid day! Did I mention it stays put while swimming too? No more burning eyes when you're getting out of the water, move over Anita Ekberg (La Dolce Vita/Federico Fellini) and Bo Derek (10/Blake Edwards), here comes one more hot mama looking fab before AND afer a dip.
