Recommend for dry skin
This sunscreen is very light weight. Very thick cream, but not greasy. The scent is like lotion, nothing strong. I found this sunscreen on Amazon, very affordable there. The top is easy to open and close. It’s my daily sunscreen because it’s 39 SPF and oil free. I like the fun packaging design.

Best matte sunscreen
This is the best matte sunscreen I've ever tried. In fact, it is so matte for my combo skin that it tends to dehydrate it... I fix this by using a heave moisturizer before. It has quite strong floral perfume which I don't mind. I see no whitecast on me but I think darker skin tones could experience it. It spreads incredibly easily.

Vichy capital soliel it’s a water fluid & sinks right into the skin. No residue or grease what so ever and good priced.
Suncream as a primer
Add the suncream to your face, rub it in properly then leave it on to soak in for around two minutes then add your concealer. It leaves a nice glow on your face and makes for a good primer

Lightweight Protection with a Radiant Finish
The Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ is a game-changer in my skincare routine. This sunscreen not only offers high-level protection from harmful UV rays but also feels incredibly lightweight on the skin. Infused with nourishing ingredients like rice extract and probiotics, it leaves my skin feeling hydrated and smooth without any greasy residue. What sets it apart is the radiant, dewy finish that enhances my natural glow. It wears beautifully under makeup, and there's no white cast, making it perfect for daily use. Whether you're looking for sun protection or a glowing complexion, the Beauty of Joseon Sunscreen is a must-try.

Terrable
I recently used Nivea Kids sunscreen and had a severe skin reaction that looked like a severe burn. The chemical in the product left me in agony and extreme discomfort. It was a horrible experience, and I do not recommend this brand. I no longer trust this product on my skin. Please make sure to consult a healthcare professional about your skin reaction if you haven't already. Your health and safety are important.

Effective yet lightweight spf
The Sun Protective Water SPF30 provides broad sun protection targeting 100% of sun spectrum and also helps repair skin from sun induced damage. I love the fact it is so lightweight, refreshing and provides a healthy-looking golden tan in twice less time of sun exposure. My skin feels like it’s got nothing on it, but yet it is protected. It has a non-oily formula and can even be applied to wet skin. I have found it to be fast absorbed, and invisible once applied. My skin feels intensely moisturized, and it smells amazing.

SPF30 Nuxe Tanning Oil is just perfection
So my love of Nuxe products continues with Tanning Oil, it's super absorbant, does not leave a oily slick everywhere you sit and leaves your skin pleasantly fragranced and very soft. Although i've got mixed race skin I burn in just 10 minutes of sun in UK so I was optimistic at SPF30 if it was strong enough but both years I've used this on holiday abroad i've not had a single day of redness nor peeling and my tan lines have been apparent from day 2 of holiday. This year my eldest daughter by day 5 of our 10 day holiday had barely any tan using her alternative brand of sun protection that she was adamant that it was the best on the market blah blah blah - you know just how kids are they have to follow the latest trends, so I slathered her in my Nuxe (begrudgingly as it's mine and I'm so in love with it) and by day 7 she was sporting a golden tan with zero redness and has suffered no peeling. The proof is in the use - quality products work, skin protection is not a trend - we all go on a beach holiday for a tan and if we treat ourselves to a break in the sun we should be budgeting to treat ourselves to quality UV protection too. Hot tip if you are thinking of purchasing Nuxe Sun - look out for bundles on their website or other retailers as you can often get the sun oil with after sun cream for less when you buy the bundle. They also do a seasonal "sun" travel kit which contains enough products for a 5-7 day holiday.

WHOA - No?!
I really really REALLY wanted to like this… :( First the positives, I have this in the colour “Sunbeam” which is apparently the middle shade despite looking like the lightest on their advert (evidently the middle one is just full of glitter). It goes on BEAUTIFULLY and gives such a gorgeous, healthy, iridescent glow without being straight up metallic disco ball. It could definitely have more coverage, as well as a higher SPF, but overall I love the finish. BUT, not only did I find myself super oily and sticky by the end of the day, but sadly after a few consecutive days of consistently using this, I started to develop what seems like teeny tiny little cystic acne marks, as well as something akin to heat rash. Deep underground pimples that I could only extract with the help of microdart pimple patches. So I’ve sadly had to discontinue use. If you’re lucky and your skin doesn’t have this reaction though, then I think you would really enjoy this product! Worth a try anyway given the price point.

Protected to the beach!
Nivea has amazing products, like this sunscreen. I always use spf 30 for my light skin and I never got burned with this sunscreen of Nivea. Just as long as you apply it frequently, especially after a swim, you’ll see that your skin stays hydrated and soft. The bronzer inside gives you a nice tan that stays for months.

No white marks!
Effortlessly blends into skin and doesn’t leave behind those dreaded white marks like other products do. This small bottle goes a long way which surprised me most. Isn’t too thick on the skin and feels amazing. Perfect base under make up or to go au natural!

Love this as a makeup base with SPF
I was recommended this product in store, although it feels a bit oily at first but it gives my skin a very natural radiance without makeup, i normally use this as a base and just pat on some loose powder before work. Im liking it more and more everyday but probably less suitable for oily skin

Lovely product with lasting protection
Bought this as I wanted something that would give me sun protection and make me look a bit more alive It gives a subtle glow without looking as if I have product on. Can be used under make up as a primer so leaves you feeling tacky but I don’t put make up over it and it’s fine It has protected me from 30 degree sun and I had burnt around my hairline where this obviously ended I live this and might actually try the darker shade too for under foundation for a day to night look

No eye sting
💛Claims 1. weightless and invisible texture. 2. Effective against UVA 3.12-hour mattifying effect 4. absorbs sebum and reduces pores 5. sweat resistant 6. Suitable for acne-prone skin 7. limited eye sting. 💛My experience I have sensitive skin and sensitive eyes I have bought so many sunscreens to try but most of them don't suit me because they gave me an eye sting. So I stopped using them. But I have tried this one and it claimed to be anti-eye stinging, and it sounds true to its words. Which is my main highlight to review this amazing product. Yes, it felt weightless and quite quickly absorbed into the skin with no oily residue, I haven't seen any shiny or oily glow on my skin throughout the day. Fantastic product and recommend it.

The best retinol system
I love the Environ retinol system, where you can slowly add more retinol to your skin with their step up system of different strengths. These creams have helped to clear up my skin and make my skin bright, glowy and renewed. I love the pump style bottle too.

Love, love, love!
I’ve been using this product for a while now, and I refuse to reach for anything else. Not only am I confident that I’m getting the SPF coverage I need that will last, but it also leaves my skin with a natural glow. It also hasn’t broken me out, which is such a positive!

I’ll buy it againnn!!
Okay So for a long time I have been looking for a good sunscreen that does the work and also not so heavy on my pocket. I was looking on social media and every where that korean sunscreens are in trend . I don’t say they are not good but for a person like me who is a student .. they are a bit expensive right now!! So I came across Bondi Sands water resistant lotion!! The things I like about it: - Firstly, it’s a very good deal like you are getting 150 ml in just like 6-7 pounds. What I remember. - Secondly, it doesn’t leave a white cast which is a major concern for a sunscreen. -thirdly, it say it gives you hydration and believe me they are not lying to youu , it gives you hydration and leave you with a dewy effect or glowy effect you can say and my makeup blends on it like butter so well!!! So it is safe to say that it could work as a good primer . If we talk about cons, I haven’t seen any yet!! I’m a person who gets breakout more often but I was glad when this doesn’t caused a single breakout on my face as my skin gets them easily if anything a little greasy comes in contact with it. So yea.. go ahead you can buy it too!!

Amazing sunscreen with velvet feel
This was such a great surprise! Sunscreen with a fantastic velvety texture, it feels luxurious on the skin. It’s quite affordable so it’s now my to-go sunscreen as it also doubles an a primer seamlessly. It’s a pleasure to wear this sunscreen, everyday!

Great but takes some getting used to
Azelaic acid, being an exfoliant, has to be used with a bit more caution than your regular cream. You should always avoid the eye area, and only use it a few times a week to start with them build up. That being said this is a staple in my routine. It helps immensely with my rosacea (although it stings when my skin barrier is weak) and smooths my skin texture. I use it nightly after serums and before moisturiser and wake with soft, healthier looking skin

Not for me
Absolutely hate this product. It is super thick and definately NOT for anyone that has even a bit of melanin. Here is why; it leaves a white cast on your face and it is sooooo bad and you will look like a ghost who is not white. It is also super thick in consistency and it does NOT easily blend into the skin so it looks like a greasy, undissolvable mess on your skin. I tend to be kind to companies but this is just not worth a penny.
