City block SPF 50

This is an essential for me now as I'm in my 60s and do not want any more sun damage. It is a creamy consistency that drys in quickly and goes well under makeup.

I have used this for years after being recommended it by a skin cancer specialist after he removed a basal cell cancer from my nose over 12 years ago. It is non greasy, covers skin beautifully and protects against skin cancer.

I’ve been using this superb SPF cream for quite some time and I wouldn’t use any other similar product. It’s easy to apply, good coverage, smooth and perfect quality.

A great daily protection for your face.

This is my 2nd tube and now part of my daily routine all year round. You only need a thin layer on top of your usual moisturiser before make up or without.

City block superdefense: protection in a tube

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Yes, I recommend this

I love this citydefense superblock. It's from Clinique and is super easy and light to apply. It's lightly tinted so I can see where I'm putting it: particularly without my specs 👓 on. And it really protects my face and neck I feel, from all that the day can throw. I regularly go without bb cream or foundation for that reason and I get a natural glow with just lippie or lip protection stick 😀

Excellent SPF

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Yes, I recommend this

I have used this for more than a decade on many visits to Australia. Despite having fair skin I have never burned or even turned pink! It is fine for day wear without foundation on top. Very comfortable around my delicate eye area. Tube fits easily into my handbag.

My go too City Block 50.

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Yes, I recommend this

The city block 50 is perfect on its own or as a primer under foundation. It leaves a protective coating on the skin and is suitable for rosacea sufferers.

Not for Me!

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

No, I don't recommend this

Smells and feels like sunscreen. Thick greasy texture, I personally would not wear this under makeup. I will only use this product when I am on holiday ie high sun exposure. I would not buy it again as I am looking for a lighter high factor spf for my face. I do have oily skin it might feel better on a different skin type.

Not for me. Too rich and claggy.

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

My optician told me that I needed a sunscreen so I tried Clinique. I'm in my 60s and have a dry skin but it was too rich for me.
