Guide Review - Cosmedicine: Global Health SPF 30 Face

I have to admit, I was a bit surprised when I saw the consistency of Cosmedicine: Global Health SPF 30 Face. It's a very thick cream that I thought would leave my skin feeling greasy. But I was pleasantly surprised after application. Within minutes of application, my face was extremely matte and the sunscreen had completely soaked into my skin. After doing more research, I found out why the consistency is what it is.

Cosmedicine: Global Health SPF 30 Face is meant for those of you who spend a lot of time in the hot sun and get bothered by running or dripping sunscreen in your eyes. They even did their own clinical study which included 90 degree heat with 80% humidity while wearing Global Health. Not a single participant had any problems with dripping, running or skin irritation. Global Health has UVA/UVB coverage of SPF 30, and is packed with antioxidants to protect your skin against free radical damage.

While some consumers aren't loving the consistency of Cosmedicine: Global Health SPF 30 Face, I believe that it is a great sunscreen for outdoor enthusiasts who go out in the sun to have fun in the sun. Outdoor volleyball athletes, hikers and climbers would all enjoy not rubbing sunscreen in their eyes when the sweat starts. When sunscreen starts dripping, not only can it sting your eyes, you can also lose the coverage that you need. You're not going to have that problem when choosing Global Health.

Global Health is made specifically for adults.
