SkinCare VI - SunBlocks

Sunblocks
Nowadays women are becoming more aware of the importance of sunblock and will tend to include this in their skincare regimen.

It's important to use sunblock every day even on cloudy days or even when you are not out in the open but has contact with bright lights. Don't use moisturizers with sunblock at night, the ingredients are not meant to be used 24/7 as it can aggravate skin.


Laneige - Sunblock Triple SPF40 PA++
This product is said to have 3 combined functions: blocking UV rays, relieving photo-aging, and correcting skin tone. It contains adenosine ingredient, which restores the normal function of skin, and brings back the health of inner and external skin; the fine-milled pearls deliver radiant and vivified skin tone.

The texture of this product is quite thick and hard to spread. After applying this sunblock, it leaves a white cast on the face.. not sure if this is what they meant by correcting the skin tone... Also, maybe because of the high SPF, it is quite greasy after applying on the skin.. I know that the higher the SPF the more greasy it will be... However, I cannot go for the lower SPF as I may need to be in the sun when taking photos. I am using this product on my body too so that I can finish it faster.. Won't be buying this next time..


The Face Shop The Odbo Sunblock Pact spf 50+ pa+++
This product is only available at certain Face Shop outlets in Korea

It is non-greasy, smooth, easy to apply but it does leave a white cast if I apply too much. I like the idea of the sunscreen in a foundation pact form and it comes with a mirror so you can see where you're applying.
