In 1933, the delightfully eccentric travel writer Robert Byron set out on a journey through the Middle East via Beirut, Jerusalem, Baghdad and Teheran to Oxiana, near the border between Afghanistan and the Soviet Union. Throughout, he kept a thoroughly captivating record of his encounters, discoveries, and frequent misadventures. His story would become a best-selling travel book throughout the English-speaking world, until the acclaim died down and it was gradually forgotten. When Paul Fussell published his own book Abroad, in 1982, he wrote that The Road to Oxiana is to the travel book what "Ulysses is to the novel between the wars, and what The Waste Land is to poetry." His statements revived the public's interest in the book, and for the first time, it was widely available in American bookstores. Now this long-overdue reprint will introduce it to a whole new generation of readers. This edition features a new introduction by Rory Stewart, best known for his book The Places In Between, about his extensive travels in Afghanistan.Today, in addition to its entertainment value, The Road to Oxiana also serves as a rare account of the architectural treasures of a region now inaccessible to most Western travelers, and a nostalgic look back at a more innocent time.

A hydrating sunscreen but won’t provide the coverage
I’ve been using CeraVe sunscreen, so that’s my baseline. It’s thicker, slightly pigmented, and very hydrating..
Switching to Eucerin felt like moving from a cozy blanket to a light sheet. It’s definitely thinner and less pigmented, so at first it didn’t give me that same immediate glow or coverage I was used to. That said, on its own, it’s still a good sunscreen. It spreads easily, feels comfortable, and does the job without heaviness.
After using it for a while, I’ve kind of settled into a rhythm:
• If I want a bit of coverage and that hydrated, supple finish → I reach for CeraVe
• If I just need straightforward sun protection → Eucerin works perfectly fine
One small downside is the packaging. The pump is convenient, but toward the end, I can already tell there’ll be product left that’s hard to get out since you can’t really squeeze or open it easily.
Overall, I’d say Eucerin is a solid, lightweight sunscreen. Just don’t expect that tinted, slightly “makeup-like” effect if you’re coming from something like CeraVe. It’s more of a quiet, reliable everyday option than a multitasking one.

Ok for sunscreen
Works fine as sunscreen. Did make me look a little red but might be a reaction as I have very sensitive skin. Didn't notice any color change so basically it's just sunscreen.

Great sunscreen that feels light on skin
Great sunscreen that matches my skin tone and is very light. Its not makeup and also doesn't leave any white sunscreen residue. I can have sensitive skin when it comes to sunscreen and this is very gentle on my skin. Highly recommend!
