Hi Susie,
If the sunscreen is using a micro or nano form of zinc
oxide,
depending on the formulation it should be absorbed in quite
well and
be basically invisible. The `old style' zinc oxide used
larger
particles and also mineral oils et. al. and would produce a
thick
cream that you could easily see.
My favourites are Linda Sy's ZincO Cream (tinted version is
great for
me, it leaves enough colouring to cover my redness) and
RosaceaCare's
Suncreen 30. The RosaceaCare sunscreen is like a sort of
thick
moisturiser, it rubs totally in, you cannot see anything at
all after
application - very elegant indeed.
