Not so for the Shiseido! This stuff is a very thin, milky liquid; I have to be sure to shake the bottle well before pouring any onto my fingers (the first time I attempted to wear this, I didn't shake, and funky liquid spilled all over my hands...less than ideal!), but it's very easy to spread, thanks to its thin texture, and it absorbs absurdly quickly. It leaves a matte finish, which is great for putting on makeup after. In short, it is everything a high SPF facial moisturizer should be. The downside? It's $39 in its full size (3.3 oz), which is well out of my price range. You can buy two of the little bottles on eBay for $8, so if you're planning on being outside in the sun for protracted times for a few days, it might be worth the investment.Overview
Pros: Spreadable, doesn't clog pores, high SPF, mattifying
Cons: Expensive
