New Paula’s Choice Sunscreen

Ohhhhh...a sunscreen oil!  This intrigues me.  I always add a few drops of Squalane oil to my moisturizer.  I bet this would mix well, too.  I might have to try it!

 

Have any other PC fans tried it yet?  If so, please share your thoughts! ❤️🌞🌺😎

I just received this a few days ago.  It's very light and not greasy ... I like it so far.

Excellent!  I think I will purchase this.  I like the idea of an oil SPF for my dry skin.

I’ve Continually read oils destabilize spf so they shouldn’t be used in the same routine and/or products. Even my own personal dermatologist recommended not using a facial oil with an SPF during the day for this exact reason?!

That depends on the type of sunscreen...mineral or chemical. Chemical sunscreens are oil-based products and many mineral sunscreens contain a variety of added oils.
