Good for a natural look 

I like this cc cream best when I only use a small amount of product to conceal and smooth lightly. The colour range and matching is not great and it can look a bit cakey/orange if you put too much on.  Overall, for me it’s a wearable every day product for minimal makeup looks. 

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.

Nice sunscreen for around eyes

I use this sunscreen around my eyes as it doesn't sting and is moisturizing. It spreads nicely. I wouldn't use it for the rest of my face as I have combo skin and it could look quite oily.

Lightweight SPF serum

I love the packaging of this serum. Presented in the white box with yellow brand name, and with all the relevant information, such as ingredients list and the direction of use clearly visible. The bottle has a pump action and it gives a right amount of product in couple of pumps to cover the whole face. I have a more of an oily skin and this serum suits me very well. It is lightweight and doesn't leave my skin greasy. When first sprayed on the skin, the serum comes out white, but soon blends into the clear luminous liquid that gives a lovely glow to the skin. This SPF serum is great as a primer under the makeup too. The fragrance is very subtle, it is fresh and doesn't stay for long once applied on the skin. This serum is designed for Acne Prone skin.

Lightweight and great under makeup

This sunscreen is much more of a watery gel consistency and it feels incredibly light on the skin. It absorbs very quickly and works super well under makeup, no pilling or dissolving. It’s very easy to apply and you can do multiple layers if you want to double up on a very sunny day or using retinol like me. The only slight downside is in the seconds before it takes to absorb there’s a slight smell like alcohol evaporating. That being said I have dry skin and haven’t found it drying.

The Perfect Redness Coverage ! X

Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color l Correcting Treatment. I adore this cream it's a light green colour it is a tiny bit greasy on skin but it's bearable !. Really helps my red skin flare ups with rosceg it soothes and times down the redness by mattifying it you apply until the green cream turns beige then your good to go! X

Like a fragrance body mist and suncare in one

This is the only sunscreen I have ever worn and received compliments from a stranger about how I good I smelt. It really is like Sol de janeiro body mist had a sun care child, it smells wonderful. My only gripe is the price, I do wish this was a more affordable line!

An important step!

I’m sure this product does the job of protecting the skin, however it is worth noting that it is strongly fragranced. Whilst it does smell lovely, I think it’s unnecessary in a skincare product. However, it applies very well to the face as it is a very thin fluid formula which I like!

Great product!!

The skin tint is a lovely, low coverage product, only issue I’ve found with it is when applying it with fingers or a brush it can go on extremely uneven, and look streaky, where applying with a sponge it goes on absolutely perfect, ideal to keep in a travel bag too as doubles as your sun cream, and if you’re in holiday not much more you need than a healthy glow!! I’m fairly light skinned but if you’re quite pale then this product won’t work for you as the lightest shade is quite dark.

I like it.. 

Right so I’m not sure if it actually maximises a tan but it’s a great after sun and smells good! Every time I smell it it reminds me of holidays. It rubs in easily and a little goes a long way. I’ve repurchased a few times now so I would definitely recommend this.

Very effective 

A great glycolic treatment that is aimed to help any damage caused by acne, pollution & sunlight. The tiny molecules work by gently entering deep into your skin to break apart buildup of dirt, oil or dead skin cells that can cause clogged pores, the result is clearer, brighter & smoother skin. ⁣ ⁣ Good Genes has recently been reformulated & is now a multi tasking treatment, as it helps with fine lines & wrinkles too. ⁣ ⁣ I’ve been using it now for just over 2 months & I’m impressed with the results - my skin just looks better! I find a little goes a long way & it can be used am & pm just make sure you’re wearing spf too. I mainly use it on nights when I’m not using any other actives & it’s worked very well. ⁣ ⁣ Great if you’re looking for a pick me up & to give your skin a kick start to gentle resurfacing. ⁣ ⁣ I had a spot scar & it helped fade it & that really impressed me! ⁣

Doesn’t leave a white cast

I have been using this sunscreen for so e time now. It does not leave a white cast and feels very hydrating on the skin but it does make my skin very oily. I am not sure its just me or others have also noticed it that it gets very oily after some time.

Aloe soothing sun cream COSRX

best sunscreen that reduces my acne marks and helped with preventing it. Have purchased at least 5 times during the year. Use pea sized amount which is enough to cover whole face. I’d definitely recommend to my oily skin girlies with acne prone skin or really any skin type.

A must for this weather

La Roche-Posay Anthelios UV Correct Sunscreen provides robust protection against sunburn and long-term skin damage thanks to its high SPF 70 rating and broad-spectrum coverage. The inclusion of niacinamide helps to improve skin texture and tone, reducing the appearance of dark spots over time. This dual-action approach makes it more than just a sunscreen; it also functions as a skincare treatment. The formula is lightweight and non-greasy, with a smooth consistency that spreads easily over the skin. It absorbs quickly without leaving a white cast, which is a significant advantage for those with darker skin tones. The finish is a natural, slightly dewy look that works well under makeup.

Basic SPF

I have used SPF since forever, and I was excited to try this product as it promises a dewy finish however I am a little disappointed. As an SPF it feels nice on the skin and adds as a moisturiser (feels quite rich), however, with any makeup on even a tint, it becomes gritty. Makeup does not sit well over this product. As a standalone product I would recommend, for daily use with other products it is not the one!

Bare minerals 

The original is my holy grail! I have owned this cc product for years now and I keep going back to it! I love that it's buildable and it literally lasts all day! I have worn this to a boxing class and my skin is still looking perfect after it! Not a huge fan of the stick version though

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!

Ummed and arred about buying this product as its a little more than I would usually pay but eventually bit the bullet and purchased and so glad I did!! Use either on its own for a fresh face or mix with foundation for a flawless base. Just gives ur skin a beautiful glow that gets noticed. I use light/medium shade

Protective SPF spray that works all day !

This SPF spray is amazing. My daughter and I have fair skin and have just been to Cyprus. We applied in the morning and didn’t burn once ! It is a little oily but once it sinks into your skin it’s fine. If you apply properly it will work but you do need to make sure you cover all your body and not leave any gaps ! Well worth the money !

suncream

its very good and a must because SPF is a holy grail

Not enough product

I enjoyed using this product, it was my go to sunscreen in Greece, however it only lasted a week, and isn’t available in bigger bottles, which is an annoyance especially considering the price point and typical shipping price. The bottle is cute and practical, but if I were to buy it again it would be kept for emergencies in my go to bag, and is impractical as your primary sunscreen. If you are interested in this, their face stick is lovely and a staple of mine!
