I don’t usually write about skincare marketed for men. I know there are some histological differences between male and female skin. Still, at the end of the day, the division in the skincare industry is about marketing strategies and nothing else. This product is no exception; it will suit everyone. The formula combines zinc oxide… Read More Kao Nivea Men UV Protector SPF50+ – Review
This product has been such a pleasant surprise. It offers very high UV protection with a presentable finish. This sunscreen contains a mix of chemical filters and titanium dioxide, giving us the protection of SPF 100 and PPD 58 (information obtained from Eucerin). Why do they put SPF 100 on the label even though the… Read More Eucerin Actinic Control MD SPF 100 – Review
I don’t know what I thought when I was purchasing the sunscreen. Did I believe that L’Oréal, out of nowhere, had started making ungreasy sunscreens? If so, then I am a naive fool. Because the masters of upcycling formulas have done it again, this sunscreen is technically the Anthelios Ultralight-Fluid with few skin-benefiting ingredients. The… Read More Vichy Capital Soleil UV Age Daily SPF50+ Facial Sunscreen – Review
It’s one of the most popular sunscreens among Asian Beauty enthusiasts, I believe. I saw this sunscreen for the first time many years ago, and it has always had positive reviews. I had been avoiding it for years, for an unknown reason, and I should’ve listened to my instinct because this sunscreen is average. It’s… Read More Canmake Mermaid Skin Gel UV SPF50+ – Review
This sunscreen is terrific, I’ve enjoyed using it, but it doesn’t work for my skin type. This product offers very high protection of SPF 50+ and PA++++(4). The formula includes emollient ingredients as the base, as it’s a stick-type sunscreen and a mix of titanium dioxide with chemical UV filters. There is a bit of… Read More IOPE UV Shield Sun Stick SPF 50+ – Review
Last month, one of my readers reached out to me asking about my experience with Bionike’s sunscreens. Honestly, I have little experience with Italian suncare. Before, I had tried two sunscreens from Rilastil, which I had thrown away after a few applications and never attempted to review them – dreadful experience. So when I was… Read More Bionike DEFENCE SUN NO-SHINE FLUID SPF 50+ – Review
This sunscreen was my first Australian sunscreen, from an authentic Australian brand, not an American brand masquerading as Australian. Australia has strict sunscreen regulations, and, usually, Australian suncare offers high anti-UV protection. Unfortunately, this product was disappointing. I bought the product last autumn, without knowing what ingredients it contained, as they had not been listed… Read More Solbari Dry Touch SPF50+ Face Sunscreen – Review
2021 regarding sunscreens isn’t starting well; I hope it won’t be as bad as 2019. The formula includes derivatives of vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside) and glycyrrhetinic acid as brightening agents. There’s a mix of zinc oxide and chemical filters resulting in high anti-UV protection. The product contains alcohol, but no fragrance. Suitable for all… Read More Suncut UV Whitening Essence SPF 50+ – Review
I don’t remember the last time a sunscreen made me so happy; this product is fantastic! The formula includes a mix of chemical filters and titanium dioxide resulting in optimal protection of SPF 50 and anti-UVA protection of at least a third of the UVB. We can also find here antioxidants that fight off free… Read More Sesderma REPASKIN Facial Dry Touch SPF 50 – Review
Here’s a review of another lovely, Japanese sunscreen. This product is similar to many other sunscreens from Kanebo; it offers protection of SPF 50+ and PA++++(4), the highest level of UV protection found in Japanese sunscreens. The formula includes a mix of zinc oxide and chemical filters, there’s alcohol, but a large amount of hydrating… Read More Kanebo Global Skin Protector SPF 50+ – Review
This sunscreen is a last year’s addition to the Skin Aqua lineup. It offers a similar UV protection to the standard Skin Aqua UV Super Moisture Milk except this one provides a skin brightening effect. This formula includes a mix of zinc oxide and chemical filters. We can also find two types of hyaluronic acid,… Read More Rohto Skin Aqua UV Super Moisture Milk Pink – Review
Let me start by saying that this product isn’t sunscreen. Technically it is, and it is advertised as such, but I would say it’s more like a primer. There is no way anyone would apply a decent amount of this product for two reasons: its finish and price. The Dior Snow Ultimate UV Shield offers… Read More Dior Diorsnow Ultimate UV Shield SPF 50+ – Review
In my last review of Skinceuticals’ serum, I said that I wasn’t planning to review more products from this brand this year, but I hadn’t had any idea they would release such an exciting product. This sunscreen contains a mix of titanium dioxide and chemical filters including L’Oréal’s proprietary Mexoryl XL. The formula also includes… Read More SkinCeuticals Advanced Brightening UV Defense SPF 50 – Review
This product is from Garnier’s new releases for 2020, and now I understand why La Roche-Posay discontinued the Anthelios Ultra-Light last year (only in Europe). This sunscreen contains solely chemical filters, including L’Oréal’s patented Mexoryls XL & SX. Garnier are the cheapest brand if you want to use Mexoryls without spending too much for sunscreens… Read More Garnier Ambre Solaire Super UV Face Fluid SPF50+ – Review
