Where can I get a good facial sunscreen, with very high SPF?

I'm talking at least a 50SPF + factor, the higher the better. It has to be specifically for the face, and I'm prepared to pay a lot for it, for one of the higher end brands. I don't tan and I don't want any sort of a tan, I like having pale skin, but when in the sun I just seem to burn and develop loads of freckles which I can't stand. I want the highest level of protection I can get.

Any recommendations?
BTW I'm currently using Clinique Super City Block 40 SPF, I'd like one with higher protection than this though. Oh and I'd be wearing it under foundation too...

Clinique UV50 face cream works a treat.

What Exactly is Mineral Makeup and Why is it so Special?

Mineral makeup is now nothing new. We see it in drug stores, specialty shops and online boutiques. The question remains however, 'what is it?' As we know, marketing companies will do anything to convince us that something is new and innovative in order to get us to buy it. But in fact, mineral makeup has existed since the 70s.

From research, the conclusion though is that mineral makeup is worth taking a look at, and worth switching over to. It's properties, as well as its advantages make for a versatile and safe product to be putting on your skin day after day.

Basically put, mineral makeup is pure, meaning free of dyes, chemicals, perfumes and especially talc, which can clog pores. Because of it's purity, it prevents the growth of bacteria, and because of the elements it contains, it holds other health benefits for the skin, allowing it to not only breathe, but also be protected from the sun. That's right, titanium dioxide, which can be found in mineral makeup, is actually a natural sunscreen with an SPF of about 15-20. Zinc, which is also found in mineral makeup, naturally prevents inflammation and, to top it off, the stuff is water resistant! So you can wear it to the beach, in the kitchen, cry - it won't run! Finally, a makeup has come to the market that can prevent disgusting and unsightly acne, while giving a truly healthy and natural glow to a person's face.

The usage of mineral makeup is also very versatile. Because it is so concentrated and totally pure, a little bit of the powder form can go a long way, and the more you use, the deeper and more effective the colour, unlike our traditional makeup brands that don't seem to improve or get richer no matter how many layers we put on. When you buy mineral makeup that is say, the colour of your skin, it acts as a 3-in-1 foundation, concealer and powder. When you use more vibrant colours, you have different options. Putting it on dry will give a natural, smooth glow. Getting your brush wet and applying it to your skin will enhance the deepness of the colour, which is great for use as an eyeliner. Not only that, you can take the mineral makeup and mix it with other transparent products, such a lip gloss, nail polish, or mascara, for a perfectly coordinated look.

Some people complain about the way the mineral makeup has a drying effect on the skin. This can be a problem, especially if you are prone to those 'dry wrinkles' that appear especially around under the eyes and sides of the mouth. However, this dryness can first be combated by ensuring lots of moisture for your skin through use of a good moisturizer and getting lots of Vitamin C, which helps collagen in your skin. There are of course, lots of other ways to get the much-needed moisture our face deserves (try face masks and exfoliation, among others).

Although some mineral makeup can be a dream come true to most of us, we should always beware of counterfeits and companies simply using the term 'mineral' as a sales scheme. There is no regulatory body out there that is approving what is 'mineral' and what is not when it comes to makeup, so it's important to read the labels of the products we buy. Be weary of anything that contains dyes or parabens, even perfumes and other ingredients that totally offset the advantages that 'real' mineral makeup gives in the first place.
