Which is the best Sun protection face cream?

I have spf 30, spf 40 and spf 50 sun creams. I want a sun cream for my face which is light, non greasy, and the one where i can wear make up on top of it. However all the ones i have they all seem greasy, even though it says non-greasy and light. And i cant wear make up on top of it. Do I have to use spf 15? Is lower the spf the lighter and non greasy they are? Please help. I live in uk, and its not usually very hot except summer so would lighter spf would be suitable? Thanks all i would like a cream that doesnt give me a tan. as i have asian brown skin already

1. Try a sunBLOCK of SPF 30. Good Luck!
2. For daily sun protection just use SPF 15 and a foundation that contains sun screen. It will give you enough protection for day to day activities like walking the dog, going for coffee, etc. It is important to use a sun screen with a higher SPF if you are going to the beach or you are going to be out all day in the sun. On those days just use a little water proof eye liner and lip gloss. You'll still look polished but you won't have to worry about your face melting off in the sun. Good luck!
3. use Sunplay its not greasy and can be use as a make-up base formulated in japan
4. the more s.pf. (sun proof protection) the better.. but usually only babies need spf 50....
5. i think spf30 is the best but if your skin is smooth use spf15 its smooooth
6. spf 45, use Aveeno. its light and non greasy
7. if u have asian skin and u re staying in the city why on earth would u need this high spf? spf 15 is very correct for u, they put it in all day creams nowadays. u need special cream for going to beach only. i don't have asian skin, i have white skin, i spend all summer at the sea shore and i never use this high spf cream - it looks horrible and it is good to have some tan on your face in summer. u might use a hat during especially sunny days
8. l am always wearing SPF 30 and l have dark skin, so in case you are blond l would recommend even higher! there are make ups with SPF but if you want a pure creme l have to recommend korre's products! they are natural and not heavy at all! the web page l think is www.korres.com l have all the cremes and l am very satisfied cause they also smell good :o)
9. Bannana Boat Sport SPF 60
10. i prefer to use spf30...
11. The best sunscreens protect against both UVB (ultraviolet radiation with wavelength between 290 and 320 nanometres), which can cause sunburn, and UVA (between 320 and 400 nanometres), which damages the skin with more long-term effects, such as premature skin aging. So higher the SPF the better however it also depends for how long you will be out in sun and around what time usually the sun is at its peak from 11:00 am - 3:pm. Try Olay Total effects sunscreen it protects you against UVA & UVB and premature wrinkle caused by sun. research has shown that the best protection is achieved by application 15–30 minutes before exposure, followed by one reapplication 15–30 minutes after the sun exposure begins. Further reapplication is only necessary after activities such as swimming, sweating, and rubbing.[2] You can also use a face powder or foundation with sunscreen this way you can avoid greasy cream on your face and on the remaining exposed part of your body apply sunscreen 30 minutes before you go out this will ensure that the cream is not greasy. If it is still greasy then try using gel based sun screen as they are non-greasy but will be expensive
