sunblock just for face

Recommended Posts

do u know wat is da SPF(Sun protection factor) for?

eg:SPF 25

go under the sun with ur bare skin...count how many minutes that ur skin get heated up, red and burn.that you cant stand (Eg: 20mins)

so SPF 25 and 15min.....25 X 20 = 500 minutes.....so if u divided into 60min....is 8.333... it means that ur sun protection protects ur skin from the sun 8 and da half hours. if u go under the sun longer than that...please reapply ur sun block.

for your body u can use strong spf....for face...dont!...it bites! and naked eye cant see that you wash off really really clean...not suitable for problem skin...normal skin wil get 1 or 2 breakouts

im using HABA brand sunblock. its a roll-up stick packaging. SPF35.

I have sensitive skin. when comes to sunblock, easily have breakouts or congested skin if the sunblock is not suitable.

HABA so far is the best that i have used. not sticky and absorbed fast.

and it has lavender fragrant :thumbsup:

i've bought sunplay (err...spf 130 & powdery white spf 40++ i guess) and used it during the weekend at the beach. not sticky & not oily. smells nice also.

can i know we put sunblock after foundation or before foundation (esp. for brands like sunplay & banana boat?) i know loreal uv perfect can be applied before foundation, but the others?

I'm using Loreal SPF 50 +++.Cheap & nice....

I usually get voucher(Watson) from i-hate-citibank to buy things.

Well, I got sample from Estee Lauren also SPF 50++...Use both of that also.Same feel...

Why pay more if two of them feel the same.Just different country product only.

If you all notice their web page, Loreal came from same brand with Shu Uemura,Lancome....

If you think a little bit oily,you can use tisu paper put on the face after apply the sunblock.just pat pat a few time...take off the tisu.

Apply make up... :D

traclyn :

Neostrata Daytime Cream SPF 15 : I like this very much as it doesn't give me breakouts / clog pores/ Also i has PHA (somnething like AHA which can exfloliates pores) 50ml can last for at least 6 months.

Before this i am using Neostrata Oil Free SPF 15 also good, just that i need more moisture on my face nowadays.

If i need extra SPF when goin under hot sun for longer period. I apply another sunscreen eg : Sofina SPF 50 PA+++ This one has very light texture. Watery kind of texture. Same texture as Sunplay / Sunkiller

I am thinking to get Clarins Sunscreen SPF40 / ZA Protector.

Any reviews?

Thanks

traclyn : the sunplay sun block is watery type . Unlike normal one we use is more on lotion.

This watery one is easily absorbed in to skin and finish faster . IMO

Avenus : Sofina not available in M'sia / S'pore. Gotto get it online.

The texture is very similar to sunplay. Where you have shake it first b4 using.

Sunplay - Made in China

Sofina - Made in Japan

I'm thinking to get Clarins SPF 40 PA +++. Wonder anyone try that ?

using murad oil-free sunblock spf 15 sheer tint for 2 years now . Its the best . It have this natural colour that can act as makeup base or primer . It have ingredient thats soothes sensitivity and doesnt contain oxybenzone ( most of sunblock in the market have this .. allergic to this ). Good product .
