People should start to realize that protecting your skin from UV rays is one of the most important thing to do. It doesn't matter if it is sunny, raining, snowing or even if you are just indoors. Sunblock should be part of your daily skin care & makeup routine!
UV rays penetrate deeply into our skin's surface & is one of the main cause of premature aging. Hello wrinkles! UV rays may also cause skin cancer, especially to those who do not have enough melanin content on their skin.
"But my makeup already has SPF, therefore my skin is already protected, right?". Well, actually yes & no. Yes, because it helps in protecting your skin, & no because the SPF in your makeup is insufficient to TOTALLY protect you from harmful UV rays. "But, it feels heavy when I'm using a sunscreen & it feels sticky." Well, now you do not have to worry about that because there are already sunblocks which have a smooth texture & are not sticky at all. One perfect example is the Missha Sun Milk. This sunscreen does not cause any whiteccast, which is a typical characteristic of most sunblocks.
The Missha Sun Milk is a sun protection & moisturizer rolled into one. It leaves no white cast, which is perfect for any skin color. It is also water & sweat resistant, so that you are confident to do rigorous activities while under the sun.
Let's take a look at my review of this amazing product:
- Packaging: The container is small & pretty light which makes it convenient for travelling.
- Texture: It is watery & looks like milk when it comes out of the bottle. It is lightweight & easily blends on the skin.
- Ingredients: It contains flower extracts which soothe & nourish dry skin. It also contains an Antozone-Rose which protects the skin & Thanaka extract which provides cooling effect on skin.
- Effectiveness: Aside from effectively protecting your skin by blocking UV rays & other environmental factors, this sunblock also hydrates your skin. It also cools off the skin affected by harsh UV rays. The cooling sensation is a nice touch because our skin tends to get very sensitive after a very long exposure under the sun. It is also a good base for makeup & with an SPF of 45, it pretty much protects your skin by blocking UV rays.
And that is why I really like this sunscreen! It is not heavy on my skin & does not cause oiliness which is perfect especially for a humid weather.
