My first impressions:
When I receive a sample of this suncreen from a purchase, I give it a try and I fall in love with it on the first trial. I purchased the product the next day right away. Although it glides on easily and has a creamy finish on the skin, it feels neither heavy nor overly greasy. Or should I say, it has a matte moisturizing finish. I have oily skin and I tend to stay away from sunscreen that has creamy texture/consistency. Imagine to my surprise when I use this sunscreen, my skin stays matte for hours.
Textures:
The product itself comes in a creamy and opaque white texture. I’ve always preferred runny & watery sunscreen because I have oily skin and cream doesn’t perform well on my skin but this sunscreen beats the odd. It’s not that thick and it has a decent slick to it so that the cream applies to the skin effortlessly. This doesn’t leave a white cast on my face and I have a medium to tan skintone. Most sunscreens always leave a white cast but this doesn’t. Another reason why I love it so much. I also feel like it brightens my skin a little, without that obvious white streak of course.
How I use it:
Now this depends on your own preference but I always apply my sunscreen with the amount of two lines on my middle finger or as how I like to call it; the two fingers rule. I did the same for reapply. I love bringing this sunscreen to travel and for reapply purpose because when I use this, I can skip moisturizer because this sunscreen alone can already provide enough moisture to my skin.
Result:
As I mention before, I have oily skin and this doesn’t make my face oily or greasy despite having creamy texture. It provides enough moisture for me so I don’t need to use anything else when I have to reapply which is another reason why I love it so much. I always reapply after two-three hours and when it’s time for me to reapply the sunscreen, my skin still looks decently matte. Even though it is only SPF 35 PA++, it does a great job at protecting my skin against the sun. I do not get sun tan nor sun burn when I use this sunscreen. I think it is also mainly because I reapply then sunscreen when it’s time to.
Overall:
I really cannot recommend this sunscreen enough. I have it with me whenever I go out. It lives in my purse & also on my vanity. I have nothing bad to say except this sunscreen is only 35 PA++ so that is why reapply is a must. The tube is also practical. It’s squeezable so you can get every last drop. You wouldn’t like this if you have really oily skin but other than that, it’s pretty much suits every other skin types.
