I received this product for free from Picky and Isntree in exchange for my honest review. So let's get to it.
Packaging (reviewing this category too because if a product got bad packaging, it'll definitely give bad impression and will gets to you every time you try to use them)
Ecofriendly, that's for sure (soy ink + recycled paper + recyclable bottle)
Love the straightforward, simplified look.
The tube is white alright, but kind of translucent enough to give you some insights on the amount of product left (after using them for quite some time)
I have a soft spot for products with a hygiene seal on their product's opening, but unfortunately this doesn't have them
Ingredients
Physical sunscreen (uv filter : zinc oxide)
Contains niacinamide, pantenol too.From the name, you'll expect HA will be top of the list, but then its found as the fourth last of the overall ingredients. (sodium hyaluronate instead due to its stability)
Claims:
•Evens skin tone (more of giving a slight tone up)
•Lightweight formula (on point)
•Replenish moisture (on point)
Impression
•Cream slightly melts when came in contact with skin, eases the blending process.
•Really MOISTURIZING, leaves a healthy glow afterwards
•Doesn't pose a dramatic whitecast ( ΔNEED TO LAYER BIT BY BIT but eventually goes unnoticeable after thorough blend)
•Waterproof but not too strong
•Have almost none to really really mild fragrance (it has a smell but not like those that came directly from fragrance or essential oils, kind of like phamaceutical creams)
•provides broad sun protection
•a little goes a long way
Thoughts
Works wonder with or without wearing moisturizer underneath
Having tried this formula really encourages me to wear sunscreen more often.
Glad to be given an opportunity to review this amazing product.
I initially thought its a hybrid sunscreen by the way the cream settles in flawlessly but NO.
Couldn't find a single chemical uv filter on the list.. Plus you could probably count brands that have this FEW INGREDIENTS for a sunscreen so i'm flattered AGAIN to be reviewing this formula
