My Top 5 Sunscreens [Combo/Acne-Prone Face]
Before I got into Korean sunscreens, I had troubles with finding a sunscreen that doesn't: have any casts, caused me to have breakouts/bad reactions, and contains very strong scent. Only very few worked for me, but it would discontinue either temporarily or permanently. When it happened, it's back to square one...until these sunscreens made me a hugh believer in sun protection! I hope that you guys enjoy this list! Here are my 5 top sunscreens for my combination/acne-prone face:

Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum SPF50+ PA++++
This is my OG Korean sunscreen baby! My first tube is empty and I purchased a second tube which is not used yet due to trying other sunscreens. Got a lot of compliments from my family about this one who were not big fans of sunscreens. I must've change their minds. 😂

SKIN1004...WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE?! All jokes aside, this sunscreen has become my holy-grail! It's hydrating, it's lightweight, it doesn't peel, and it's fragrance free. An added bonus: there's no white cast! It is definitely important to me as a person of color because my results were normally "ghostly". Plus, I suffered breakouts/bad reactions when it comes to most sunscreens (U.S based, by the way) and I am already an acne sufferer. But this (Korean based) sunscreen is totally different and I love it! I would highly recommend this to anyone that is looking for a very good sunscreen.

Air Fit UV Defense Sun Cream SPF 50+ PA++++
It's the same feeling as SKIN1004, but cooling effects! My tube is nearly empty which is just in time to change sunscreen due to cooling weather approaching, but I will definitely purchase this once the weather gets warm again so I will hold on to this baby! 💚

** I received the products from Benton as gifts and this is my honest review. ** In this review, I will talk about Benton Air Fit UV Defense Sun Cream. Now, don't get me wrong. I was questioning about trying this sunscreen out due to my last experience with another sunscreen that contains Rosemary (aka "minty" scent according to my previous post and review). So I test it on my hands and the scent is very light, but it makes sense because Rosemary is at the bottom of the ingredient list (again, compared to another sunscreen). The true test was applying it on my face...and I am amazed! It's lightweight, but very moisturizing! A glow finish which I love! An added bonus: cooling on my face! Even more amazing: my eyes are NOT watery and I am NOT sniffling! Also contains Niacinamide, Cica, and many more. Don't let the light green fool you because there's NO cast! I am a new fan and I highly recommend this amazing sunscreen! 💜

Hyaluronic Acid Daily Sun Gel SPF30 PA+++
This is extremely hydrating compared to others which I am not complaining because this can come in handy for dry cold weathers (between December and February at the most). Looking forward to this one very soon! ☺

**I received this product for free from Picky and Isntree in exchange for my honest review.** Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Daily Sun Gel SPF 30 PA+++ UVA/UVB I got a chance to try this sunscreen out. Packaged in white and blue, this contains 10 types of Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide, Centella Asiatica, and more. The consistency is lightweight, but spreadable (two fingers for my face and neck). The product inside of the tube is white. The scent is extremely mild which explains that this one is sensitive skin friendly. And holy cow! I am in love! Even perfect for reapplications (this video proves it). Very hydrating and moisturizing! The glow! No white cast! You can't go wrong with this baby right here!

No.1 Pure-Full Calming Water Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++
This is a little thick out of 5 sunscreens on this list. This may also be the first sunscreen that I had ever seen that says it can lasts up to 10 hours! Of course, I have to be mindful of my eye areas. Otherwise, it would get a little watery. But I am looking forward to continue to use this baby, especially since I will be going out of town for Thanksgiving! 😀

Onion Newpair Suncreen SPF40 PA+++
This is actually growing on me so I am torn between using this, Hyaluronic one, or Numbuzin once I run out of Benton as the weather is changing again. Like Numbuzin, I have to be mindful of my eye areas. I also love the scent because it's got a mild baby powder smell to me...and I am a sucker for baby-related stuff so I can't wait to meet my baby niece for the first time this Thanksgiving! ☺💜

**I received this product for free from Picky and Isntree in exchange for my honest review.** Isntree Onion Newpair Sunscreen SPF 40 PA+++ UVA/UVB I was very curious to try this one out because it was supposed to be great for those with acne-prone skin. Plus, a YouTuber named Cassandra Bankson (an esthetician) raved about it (of course, one of the makers as well) and she suffers from acne just like me. And of course, it's purple! 😀 Packaged in purple and white, this contains Onion Bulb Extract, Niacinamide, Vitamin E, Vitamin K, and more. The consistency is lightweight, but spreadable (two fingers for my face and neck). The color of the product inside of the tube is light purple (lavender). The scent smells like a mild baby powder so don't let that onion ingredient fool you. 😂 This was amazing for the first application! I love that it is very hydrating and moisturizing. No purple cast! The glow is A-MAZING! Just remember to don't knock it until you try it because I really enjoy this sunscreen. 💜
