My thoughts

~PACKAGING~
Simple, sturdy tube packaging with a small nozzle to dispense sunscreen




~SCENT~
The scent is fairly strong...
It has a strong citrus scent
It reminds me of some bathroom detergents...




~TEXTURE~
Gel like texture




~PRODUCT~
I bought this when I was in Hong Kong. I love the texture after trying the sample and bought it without a second thought! I love that it is easy to spread, does not leave a white cast and it is not oily or sticky in any way! It is absorbed into the skin almost instantly. My skin feels soft and smooth. I did not experience any breakout so far. It did not make my skin dry which is good but my skin did not feel hydrated.

I am not sure whether it is my problem or the sunscreen's. After using for a few weeks, I notice that it did not work as well under my makeup. It flakes and I hate it. It is fine when I use it on my body. I guess I will continue using this on my body.




Pros
Easy to spread
Does not leave white cast
Not oily/sticky
Skin feels soft and smooth
Not drying
Absorption rate is almost instant
Affordable



Cons
Did not work well under makeup and it flakes
Strong scent



Repurchase?
No way!



Recommendation?
I do not recommend this sunscreen under makeup
It is worth a try for the body, at least :)
