You totally need an oil based sunscreen remover. Shiseido actually makes one, but Sephora doesn't sell it. However, I was looking and researching what the store actually carries, and Shu Uemura has an mineral oil based cleanser "Cleansing Beauty Oil" I think itls called. If you just use even a regular make up remover it WILL NOT remove the sunscreen. You may feel like it has come off, but trust me, there is a reason why it is such a great sunscreen, it STICKS! Tried skipping the oil based cleanser and could still feel the sunscreen on my skin. Good friend of mine is a pro make up artist, like Fashion Week caliber. She told me that a particular few ingredients in it cannot be taken off with normal cleansers. You only need a dime size or little more of the oil cleansers which aren't SUPER expensive to begin with (Shidseido one is $25 I think, Shu Uemura is like $30--but you only need a LITTLE), it's WORTH purchasing!

This product washes out normally--just use your usual facial cleanser and water to wash it out. I don't think you need use make up remover to get rid of it, but if you arent sure, then maybe try a facial scrub? But honestly, I've always just washed my face normally, and I havent had any issues before. :) Hope this helps!

During my vacation, I did not have much makeup with me and my only option was to take shower with soap, and it worked just fine to clean my skin from the lotion. I don't even think I was noticing it on my skin while it was there. It is very light and absorbs immediately.

No. It reads, "Very water resistant" though, and basically that means it's waterproof. Starting this year in '09, manufacturers of SPF products are prevented by law from claiming their products are waterproof because no lotion/oil/stick/spray/etc. is completely waterproof. People were given the impression that they never had to reapply, ever, regardless of time spent in water. But saltwater, chlorine, and even lake water will remove SOME product. Anyway, you'll find that most products will now say "water resistant" but they're the same as what used to be called "waterproof." I hope this helps. Have a great summer!

Question
Compare with SPF 33 PA++
I work in the office most of the day and get exposed to Sun in the outside less than 1 hour in a day. I don't think I need a high level of SPF and am debating between this product and Extra Smooth Sun Protection Lotion SPF33 PA++. Besides the level of SPF, what other differences are there?

I've heard the more the better...I've heard that even inside you can still get sun damage. I've also read that one is supposed to reapply sunscreen every couple of hours and if you're not able to do this then a higher level sunscreen is recommended.

Somebody can correct me if I'm wrong, but I read that anything under 35 spf really didn't do anything at all to defend your skin unless you lather it on. I've used this on my face with no problems, and usually sunscreen makes my super dry skin act up. I tried some other facial sunscreens and they just didn't do the same trick. Look at it this way, if you try this, you have it for the days off when you go out as well as your office days, instead of having to buy two bottles.

Question
Sweat Proof?
I see this says "very waterproof" but how does it do with sweat, primarily on the face? I perspire on my face heavily in the summer months and most sunscreens make me feel, for lack of a better word, gross because they are so heavy. I end up with a sticky and shiny face and have probably blotted away most of the sunscreen by the end of the day.

From my ( & my husband's) experience this product works wonders! The lotion is light. Not greasy at all & the scent is very mild. If you want to look into another product that I have used in conjunction with this one...try Cosmemedicine Medi-Matte oil control lotion. I work outside like you & understand the frustrations.....so,, I apply medi-matte first, then I apply my Shiseido!:)

Question
Sunscreen rash and breakout.
I'm very sensitive with sunscreen, I have not been able to use any sunscreen at all, only the day lotion with sunscreen up to SPF15. Anything more than that I would have rash, not exactly breakout, but tiny bumps that takes many days to disappear. The last sunscreen I tried was Aveeno. Does anyone has similar skin condition, if so, does this sunscreen cause any trouble? Thanks!

I have a very sensitive skin too. I have been tried so many sun block lotion for my face and most of them left me with acne or gave such a thick layer, greasy feeling on my face. However, this one has a light, nice smell and gave me non-greasy, moisture feeling for my skin. And yes.. It protect my face from the sun very very well.. Try them.. If you do not like it, you can return it back to sephora and buy something else...

I also have sensitive skin: mild rosacea and eczema. I haven't had a reaction to this product. The main ingredient is zinc oxide, which is a mineral sunblock that's more gentle than chemical ones. Why don't you ask for a sample and try it for a few days to make sure it works for you before purchasing?

Question
This vs. Shiseido Face SPF 55?
Is there any difference between this one, and the award winning one that is just for the face? I believe that one is smaller in size, but is there a difference in ingredients or feel? Some reviewers say this one is lighter. Please let me know so I can decide between the two. I have combination/oily skin.

Lotion is way better than cream. It's lighter and easier to use under makeup, too. The cream is thick and great for dry skin, or older skin that needs more moisture.

This product is so much lighter than the face-only cream. And that one is a cream, this is much closer to a lotion. I tried both at the store and the sales rep told me that since I'm young I might enjoy this one much better. Not sure why she said it but I'd recommend this if you can't get to a store to try both.

Can I use this around the eye area?
I'm considering buying Shiseido's Sun Protection eye cream, but it is quite pricey for such a small tube. Will this work just as well?

I 've used around the eye area and I have not encounterd any stinging,burninig, or redness of any sort. I suggest you try to get a sample if you can and gently dab it around one eye to see if you get any kind of reaction especially if you have sensitive skin.
