A high-rated, lightweight sunscreen that aims to protect, hydrate, and moisturize the skin while leaving no white cast.

Packaging

Comes in a squeeze tube with a secure cap, simple, clean, and travel-friendly.

• Directions : Apply at the last stage of your skincare routine. Use an appropriate amount and spread gently across the face.

• How I Use It : I apply this before heading out in the morning, especially before a workout. It's easy to apply not just on the face, but also the neck and ears thanks to its lightweight, spreadable texture. As someone with oily-combination skin, it provides enough hydration and moisture without needing an additional moisturizer beforehand. If I want to tone down the dewiness, I top it with translucent powder though I rarely feel the need to.

Overall Rating : 4 (or 3.9)/5

Although it's a bit shinier than my ideal finish, this is a beautifully formulated sunscreen, lightweight, hydrating, and non-irritating. It delivers solid UVA/UVB protection with a pleasant texture that works well under makeup. I just wish it were a touch more matte.

Would I Repurchase?

Yes, especially if I couldn’t get my hands on my top picks like the Tocobo Watery Sun Gel, Vichy Sun Fluid, or Skin1004’s sunblock.

Dupe : The Skin1004 Cica Sunblock. Just as hydrating and lightweight, with a non-mattifying finish.
