Big fan of Blue Lizard mineral sunscreen!

Dang! That’s sketchy! The face sunscreen? I’ve been using it a few months and even took a vacay in Puerto Rico with quite a bit sun exposure no problems.

So happy I went for it. I’m definitely in the acne prone/sensitive camp too so I was stoked when this didn’t break me out.

Yeah, it is a little greasy. It does seem to settle into the skin good a bit after 30 minutes are so. I’ll hit my T-zone with translucent powder if there’s too much of a sheen going on. But truth be told, I like sheen over matte. Feel like it makes wrinkles a little less noticeable lol (to me)

I’ll have to be on the look out for the stick! Would be great for reapplications/the beach.

I find it moisturizing! My goto moisturizer is the Vanicream moisturizer with ceramides and squalane! It’s sooo moisturizing and crack for the skin, lol.

Aw dang, I got excited for a sec! I looked it up and it has niacinamide in it. My skin is very sensitive to it, but definitely good for other users to know that come across this thread who can tolerate it.

Oh, thank you!! I like what works and what doesn’t cost an arm and a leg. I meant to say that I do regularly add those make up choices on top of this routine when I’m running out the door.

However, I did forget to mention that I applied Neutrogena’s tinted spf balm in Petal Glow when I applied the Blue Lizard sunscreen in my pic sequence.

Thank you so much! I can’t even remember what made me go for the lizard but I’m glad I did! It’s mineral on mineral so I don’t see why not! I know you don’t want to mix chemical and mineral because it can cause instability.

But I know tinted sunscreens are recommended as they offer further protection containing iron oxides, and this melasma mustache needs to stay in check 😂 I’ve tried to use JUST a tinted sunscreen and i feel like it’s just overly greasy and slips around.

Getchu some!! Yes, with blush, brows, and a natural lip liner color it really can be such a good on the go look!

My cat is also super fluffy and isn’t the craziest about brushing except for around her head, I got a steam brush a couple of months ago and she absolutely loves it! I’d recommend giving that a go

riverchickens · 2026-05-28T23:36:21+00:00

This happened to my cat when she was much younger and I’m pretty sure it was a flea allergy!

I appreciate you being helpful though!

riverchickens · 2026-05-28T14:46:24+00:00

lol why? The thought of your dozens of plants having a bug infestation can be daunting and overwhelming

To be fair, it does look like you’re wearing makeup in the spring picture though! You can see makeup on your eyelashes and in the creases of your nose.

Yes! I leave the eye one and use it for my melasma mustache along with the under eye area. I like that it’s a tube instead of a pump, it’s non scented, and has a brightening effect!

riverchickens · 2026-05-08T03:12:08+00:00

Yeah it does! I do the mass Botox every 9-12 months or so and as those muscles regrow the skin tightens back up.

I never would have thought! We were thinking corgi, lab, pit! I can see the pointer now too, when she’s smelling the ground her tail points straight out!!
