Normal to combination skin with occasional blemishes. - Generous amount of product. - The alcohol in the formula helps counteract the typical heaviness of waterproof sunscreens (though some heaviness still remains). - Removable with cleansing water: Unlike some other sunscreens, this one comes off relatively easily (I use a foaming dispenser with cleansing water, no cotton pads). One cleanse might leave residue, so a double cleanse is recommended for peace of mind. - Staying power: True to its waterproof claim, it has excellent longevity.
Cons- Despite reviews claiming it's super lightweight and oil-free, it's vastly different from Biore Essence Sunscreen. - Heaviness: The texture is much heavier, with that typical sunscreen feeling of an oily film coating the skin. - Oiliness: Skin tends to look shiny after makeup application. Might be too greasy for summer use. - Reapplication over makeup: Terrible (I use powder foundation only). It pills badly around the mask area and nose when combined with powder products. Touch-ups are nearly impossible without removing your base makeup. - I'm baffled by the difference between my experience and other reviews praising its lightness. Makes me wonder if I got a fake product (bought from a reputable site though).
Tip- Still, it's much lighter than some other organic sunscreens. My expectations might have been too high after using the ultra-light Biore Essence Sunscreen. Despite the reapplication issues, it could work for normal skin types in winter or transitional seasons. The long-lasting protection makes me consider using it for a while, even with the oiliness. - Very slight white cast: It brightens the complexion by about half a shade.
