Which Sunscreen?

I get severe burning sensation and watery eyes from sunscreen. Also, sunscreen leaves me looking greasy. One that worked a little bit was Glenmark's sunscreen, but its too expensive. What is a good sunscreen for sensitive skin?

Hi. Greetings. Use something like a pure physical sunscreen. Usually sunscreens are a little expensive. Try sun cross soft or sun stop 19. Also face guard is a non greasy sunscreen. Hope this helps . warm regards. Dr Govind Suresh Mittal. Bangalore
