First impression review!
In a nutshell:
- Moisturizing without being greasy
- Leaves a natural glow and no white cast
- Great ingredients for sensitive skin
- Doesn't sting my eyes
- Potential holy grail!
For a while now I've been looking for my holy grail SPF and I haven't found it yet. But this may be getting really close! Most sunscreens are either too greasy, irritate my eyes or break me out in itchy bumps. So far, this one does neither of those things. I've only been using this for a few days, so I want to give it more time. But my first impression is really good and I wanted to share it with you.
Fyi: 30 something female with sensitive oily to combination skin.
First impression:
It's a very light yet moisturizing sunscreen, it has a light lotion-like texture. It spreads nicely across the skin, but still gets absorbed quickly and doesn't peel. It leaves a soft natural glow on your skin and no white cast, a bit like the bioré aqua rich essence,
It's still very hydrating though. I could easily use this without a moisturizer underneath it in the summer, or maybe just a moisturizing toner if necessary. In winter I'd combine this with a moisturizer though.
They promise it's soothing and calming for the skin, just as their centella gel cream, which I love and use daily. It's still too soon for me to comment on this, but I love that it has centella and niacinamide in it, which are usually great ingredients for my skin! And, this does definitely not sting my eyes!
Like I said before, I've only used this for a few days, but I really like it. I'm looking forward to see in a few weeks if it holds up to its expectations and if I've finally found my new holy grail!
