How do you guys apply sunscreen on make up?

So, I have an oily skin. I will like to have a list of sunscreens (liquid and stick) I can use!

Sunscreens for oily skin

I recently got a spray sunscreen and I’m scared of applying it on my face due to the pressure it had when I tried it once. How do I use the spray sunscreen on my face perfectly?

This is my second bottle as the first one was a self purchase. I’m glad to have received this because I was going to restock on my next haul. 

Let’s go to the review, shall we?

Product: ACWELL Licorice Cleansing Toner pH 5.5

About: The Acwell Licorice Toner contains licorice root extract, which is known to be effective for brightening and evening out skin tone. It also has a low pH, which helps to balance the skin's natural pH level. It is hydrating and helps to soothe the skin. It is also free of alcohol, parabens, and artificial fragrances, which is great for people with sensitive skin.


Texture: Lightweight, almost like water. Smells a bit citrusy.

Size: 150ml

Key ingredients: Licorice (for anti inflammatory and brightening properties), Green Tea (serves as antioxidants)

PRO: it’s very hydrating, calms irritated skin (redness), helps to balance the skin’s pH, helps with proper cleansing.


PS: I didn’t notice any brightening effect yet. Maybe when I combine the serum alongside the toner- I’ll definitely give another review then. 

How to Use: Pour a small amount onto a cotton pad and gently pat onto skin. You can use your hands too. Use after cleansing.

The Cerave foaming cleanser is the bomb. I have no cons against it.

I love how gentle this cleanser is. The fact that it cleanses thoroughly without striping the skin is what makes it a fave of mine. Then the size is another thing that I love about it.

I haven’t noticed anything bad about this product yet.

The THANK YOU FARMER: Phyto Relieful™ Cica Boosting Toner is a daily relief boosting toner that removes remaining waste and dead skin cells and helps to enhance the soothing effect of the next products.

MY REVIEW

The toner has a slightly viscous texture that feels very soothing and hydrating on the skin. I apply it after cleansing and before my other skincare products and it helps to prep my skin for the rest of my routine.

What I love about the toner is the hydration and boost it gives the my skin, the whooping large size (it’s a 200ml) and that it contains Centella asiatica extract (Cica) which serve as an anti-inflammatory agent although I haven’t used it long enough to notice the anti-inflammatory benefit.

If you have an oily skin, you might have to be cautious when using this sunscreen.

I love the moisturizing effect of this sunscreen and I use it most times without a moisturizer.

There was a sticky residue after removing the patch that you’d have to wash up (except if you love your nose gummy 😅😅)

The 6-8 hours is too long for me. If it were an hydrating patch.. I’d manage.

It didn’t remove any whiteheads for me.

The adhesive is too strong that once the patch gets stuck together.. that patch is useless.

GLAM UP SPOTLESS NOSE PATCH (12 patches)

It contains Hydrocolloid, Yea tree leaf oil, Centella extract, Niacinamide, Heart Lead extract.


REVIEW

While I struggled to put the patch on my nose as it’s too adhesive and once it sticks together, there’s no pulling apart; I love that it perfectly stays in place and doesn’t tug and move. 

Instruction says put on for 6-8 hours but I did less than that as I couldn’t keep my hands off (lol) plus I think that’s a pretty long time to keep a patch that wide stuck on your nose. 
I prefer to use at nights where no one will ask what you’ve got on your face.

When I removed the patch, I had no pain nor irritation. It pulled a bit of oil.. didn’t see any whiteheads or black heads. Perhaps I should have waited a little longer.

Despite the oil on my nose, the patch didn’t budge. It stays perfectly on.
