Call all beauty lovers out there if you are looking for a sunscreen that won't grind your gears. I have been using this for months. And I just had the chance to blog about it today. Boo-hoo me for not sharing with you guys earlier. Because this stuff is amazing and makes a huge difference in my makeup routine. I still love my Yadah Sunscreen which I mention before. One of a sunscreen that does not leave my skin greasy and leave that uncomfortable feeling. But then I discover more great sunscreen for you to try out and for me to suggest to you. As I mentioned in my before post, sunscreen is IMPORTANT. Even doctors say pressure people about this. Sunscreen is a must-have product in your skincare routine. So let's get started on what are these two sunscreens that I have been loving.
It is the SunPlay Skin Aqua UV Watery Essence SPF50+PA++++ & SunPlay Skin Aqua UV Watery Gel Sunscreen SPF50+PA++++. Both are from a brand call Mentholatum in their SunPlay range. It is said that these sunscreens or you can also call it sunblock or sun protector is formulated with the new Solarex-3 technology that provides you with photostable protection against the sun’s damaging UV rays which is proven to resist photo-degradation 3x better. It also contains Vitamin C which reduces melanin formation, effectively lightens freckles and dark spots as well as evens out skin tone for a more even and radiant skin. 3 ingredient highlight that is RonaCare Ectoin, Antileukine 6, and hyaluronic acid. that has a good moisturizing effect, repair and enhance your skin’s ability to protect your skin from UV rays as well as protect the skin’s DNA from damage.
What I like about it. The price is affordable for such a good sunscreen. Almost most of them had the experience of oily/greasy skin when applying sunblock and makeup on top. This does not do that as it is actually a great sunscreen that also acts as a great base for your makeup. My makeup lasts longer and is nearly matte all day. Easy to spread out and absorbs quickly. No white cast effect. No weird smells or that typical sunblock scent too!
What I don't like about it. Maybe I don't really like the blue tube packaging as much because if I forget to close it properly it tends to splits out and creates a mess. The plastic is a bit flimsy too. Maybe this is my own problem for begin too brutal & hasty when using a product. Haha.
Overall & Recommendations. Really recommend these two for you who have combination/oily skin who are looking for an affordable good sunblock. It's super lightweight, feels like applying moisturizer on the skin, and price-wise is affordable. Both work great on my skin but my favorite is the blue tube one (Essence) even tho no really like the flimsy tube. It is easy to obtain because I think nearly all pharmacies offer Mentholatum, SunPlay products.
Net Weight : Essence (50g) / Gel (80g)
Price : Both are RM37.90
Where to buy : Participating pharmacies

ReplyDeleteYou should try a gel based sunscreen like this! gels compliments oily skin better. :)
DeleteBiore punya sunblock pun ok jugak, yg jenis milk tu. Dia warna putih, bila pakai tak rasa berminyak. :)

ReplyDeleteyep! it worth trying. one of the best! :)
DeleteLet's have a try with this..
ReplyDeletesure! ^^
Deletehie sab, nice post n im a new reader here...
ReplyDeletewould like to know when shud i apply a sunscreen since my morning routine start wit a toner, esence, moisturizer, primer n then my foundation? is it will b too thick on my face if i slot it before moisturiser after my essence? cos i knw i shudnt apply lastly before primer,,pls help
hi dear ester, sorry for the late reply, was really busy.
Deleteyou should apply sunscreen after toner. the function of toner is to help your skin have that "damp" texture. this way it helps to absorb the next product that you are using, sunscreen,moisturizer/serum better. if you feel like it is too much. try to find a foundation that has spf in it. and try to use a "spray" type of primer.
The basic step of skincare during the day is : cleanse, toner, sunscreen, moisturizer > makeup. primer is not really necessary during the day to my opinion. you can always ask question here if you want to know more. i will try my best to give you the best answer and i hope it helps you! :)
kalo pkai sunblock yg ade alcohol, takpe ke ? sbb sye ade bce yg alcohol tak elok utk muka ?
ReplyDeletekebanyakan product yg ada alcohol, ada effect cooling kat muka. selalunya effect cooling ni xsesuai untuk kulit kering sbb akan buat lagi kering. depends pada jenis kulit :)
DeleteCan used on body too right?
ReplyDeleteyep! :)
DeleteIs it suitable for dry skin?
ReplyDeleteIs this waterproof? Because I try to find sunscreens that are not waterproof because then I don't need to use makeup remover every time I need to 'berwuduk'. I mean, I do apply my sunscreen every 2 to 3 hours and pretty much just stay inside buildings avoiding the sun as much as I can, so I don't really need something that is waterproof, sweatproof maybe, but not waterproof.
ReplyDeleteSo is that my skincare routine before are wrong?! Omg. Ive seen your replying comment said that u apply sunscreen after toner. While me, toner serum moisturizer and sunscreen. Is it wrong, sis?
ReplyDeletei'm loving the etude house sunprise mild airy finish spf50! it's super lightweight and feels like wearing nothing on the skin!
