I've looked into the methods of reapplication, some say powdered SPF works well. I've heard people bring up mists/sprays yet I've also heard a decent amount of people mention that those barely give you the UV coverage a sunscreen would. I've bought an abundance of well-received/raved about SPF sunscreens but I've realised how impossible it would be for me to reapply them every few hours on top of make up.

I don't wear a heavy layer but I do enjoy the coverage from a BB+CC cream with high SPF and PA+, but since I like to layer powder on top of it to set/remove shine, it wouldn't be an option to reapply sunscreen over it. Has anyone found a method that works well for them?

How to reapply SPF over make-up?

📎  though fragrance-free, scent from alcohol denat is very noticable and can induce skin irritation for those more sensitive;
📎 long-term use can also damage the skin barrier (alcohol denat.)
📎 can't seem to justify the price point of a 50mL sub-par product

🌷 lightweight, fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and leaves no white cast
🌷 chemical sunscreen with high UVA and UVB protection
🌷  fast absorption, non-sticky with a dewy finish
🌷 water resistant (mexoryl 400), great for outdoor use 
🌷 pairs well with other skincare products and make-up

📎 price is in the mid-range, but i believe you get what you pay for
📎 contains fragrance (though the product itself is non-drying and is actually quite hydrating)
📎 as it is a fairly gentle cleanser, don't rely on this cleanser to remove products (such as moisturisers/spf/make-up), though you should always be double cleansing in the first place
📎 if your skin is more on the oily side (as opposed to normal-combination types), this product might be a hit-or-miss for you;
📎 same goes for those with more sensitive skin, as the product contains fragrance and may trigger a reaction from use
📎 if you're looking for a similar experience in a more affordable budget, i'd recommend pyunkang yul's low pH pore deep cleansing foam; it performs similarly for a fraction of the price whilst offering a better formulation with its listed ingredients

🌷 a little goes a long way (a dime size is all you'd need for the face and neck), lathers up really well
🌷 gentle cleanser perfect for daily use
🌷 leaves your skin feeling hydrated/moisturised, does not strip skin's natural moisture
🌷 formulated for normal to combination skin

i particularly enjoyed this product since even after cleansing, my skin felt hydrated and moisturised even without immediate follow ups from other skincare products (post cleanse), additionally, i also believe that this product would last you a long time considering how a little goes a long way with it. if you have a little more to spend and have normal-combination skin, i'd definitely say that this is a great product to try out. 


📎 contains polyethelyne (used for thickeners/moisturisers), ingredient itself isn't toxic though they may be contaminated with carcinogens 
📎 though there is no eye irritation, it leave a light film that blurs your eyes from use (easily removed during a double cleanse, or simply water); i've yet to come across a balm that does not do this
📎 does not come with a spatula
📎 thicker than other cleansing balms, though that does not hinder it's performance whatsoever
📎 amazing performance, but with existing products costing half the amount while retaining equal performance, i can't offer any sound reason as to why you should opt for clinique's instead

🌷 fragrance-free, does not contain unnecessary ingredients such as essential oils
🌷 oil based cleanser with great emulsion;
🌷 takes make-up and other existing products (moisturiser/sunscreen) off seamlessly

📎 slight scent (allegedly from acerola fruit extract) which may put off some people
📎 like some cleansing balms, it may leave a slight film that blurs the vision when used around the eyes (easily removed from a double cleanse, or simply water)
📎 personally do not favour it as much as the purifying version based on how less soft and smooth the original formula leaves my skin (i suppose its because of the different ingredients + purifying version is better for my skin type), but it's still just as great!

🌷 contains malpighia emarginata/acerola fruit extract (antioxidant and moisture), rooibos leaf (elasticity), bamboo extract (removes waste), and Angelica root extract (calming);
🌷 zero balance technology helps maintain skin balance after use
🌷 comes with a spatula, great for preventing cross contamination
🌷 affordable, comes in a variety of sizes and different formulas (like the purifying one!)




📎 price point tends to be on the steeper side
📎 like a number of other reviews, the product tends to be a hassle (both to put on and remove)


🌷 contains a hefty amount of ingredients that are suitable/beneficial for a number of skin types
🌷 particularly great for pore care with soothing nutrients
🌷 non-drying and non-irritating, leaves the skin feeling smooth and soft after each use
