I use epicuren. It is amazing for everyday use. Really smooth and basically invisible. A teeny bit moisturizing and does not break me out.
I don't know if it's waterproof though. I still use burnout for sports and heavy outdoor use even though I dislike the look and drying nees.
Epicuren is so expensive. And for what? The zinc is 10% concentration, that's almost 10% less than the zinc offered in Burnout ocean tested, and the price is 20% higher.
This sunscreen meets all of your parameters, not to mention it is one of the ONLY ones that goes on clear. The concept of replacement is that is serves *the same purpose*. I was pretty clear why I liked it in the post and nothing had to do with price.
If it's not usable, it's worth nothing. It is not a function of objective parameters, but rather whether it does the job I need it to, which is to be cosmetically acceptable and protect my skin.
As someone who went almost two years not wearing sunscreen because I could not find a zinc sunscreen that was cosmetically acceptable, it's pretty significant when I find one that works for me. I have had no signs of UV damage while wearing it and my skin looks and feels great. A sunscreen that protects, is TRULY invisible, doesn't irritate my skin, and doesn't break me out? Priceless. I have tried ~30 zinc sunscreens and none have been as cosmetically acceptable. Skinmedica was ok though.
None of the burnouts are cosmetically acceptable to me and they all make my skin look white, pasty and dried out, which is why as I stated, I use them for sports. This may not work for you, but I know there are other people who would prefer a cosmetically elegant sunscreen to one that makes their skin look crepey, oily or pasty so perhaps this information will be useful to them
