Initially it worked alright but after a week, my face started to develop red patchy blotchness. Went to see a dematologist and he confirmed its prob allergic reaction due to my sensitive skin nature., so now I am back to using Sunsational sunscreeen (australia brand)... and the allergic reaction never came on.

The staff there are rather friendly. Soleo is not as oily as Badger, it absorbs more readily. I've never tried Keys before. Tried Dr hauschka's sunblock on Sat, seems good but unfortunately it's not tinted.... <font color="#990033"><strong>Cecilia</strong>: Thanks!

Unfortunately, like badger, it is not suitable for my combination skin (oily, dehydrated and sensitive). I am still looking for a physical sunblock(w/o parabens, silicones, alcohol, unnecessary ingredients) and one that will not make me pasty white or oily etc. Wish me luck! PS: I guess one of the reasons EWG tested only US / Europe brands is simply due to insufficient funding. They are self-funded (at least, it is what they claim). <font color="#990033"><strong>Cecilia</strong>: I've heard of Soleo but not seen it around. Where is it available? But if the texture is greasy, then it's not suitable for mine too. It's a bit tough to get a good physical sunscreen with those properties. I actually like Keys Solar RX quite a lot but the shipping cost is quite killing. I'm looking to try Blue Lizard range. Heard they're excellent cos the key ingredient is zinc oxide. </font> You can now buy the Soleo Organics Sunscreen in Singapore.
