Hey guys. I've recurring hormonal acne especially blind acne. I wonder what you guys did to get rid of yours. I got mine on both cheeks and it keeps coming back on the same place even after popping. It's so frustrating.

How to Get Rid of Blind Acne

Usually when a sunscreen comes in a shakable bottle like this, I can take that as a sign of "sun milk" designed for oily/combination skin with a "matte finish".

Turns out, I'm right.

I typically am not fond of sunscreen that comes in this form as it tends to have a mattifying effect on skin thus will be a bit drying for my combination skin so I usually wear this in the morning, then take it off with a cleansing water in the middle of the day and reapply other sunscreens.

In short, this is not for me. You might enjoy it if you've oily skin needing skin mattifying sunscreen though.

Properties:
- SPF50+ PA++++
- 100% chemical sunscreen
No Paraben
No Alcohol
No Silicone
Not Fungal Acne Safe

Texture
- lightweight fluid, fast absorption
- not sticky
- fragrance free
- no white cast
- mattifying 

Key Ingredients:
- Sun filters used as Uvinul T 150, Mexoryl SX, Uvinul A Plus, Parsol SLX, Tinosorb S, all of which are reef safe and non estrogenic
- Muan red onion minimizes blemishes and soothes the skin
- Niacinamide brightens skin
- Carrot Vegan Collagen moisturizes

The sun cream is well formulated but doesn't suit me. 

The texture has low slip hence it is not very easy to spread despite being a lightweight lotion. And it will feel greasy and buttery if you apply a lot. Overall a nicely formulated cream but doesn't really suit my skin types and needs. 

🪴Functions/Ingredients:

🌿Cream
- uses the same extracts as the toner but with different texture
- meant for soothing and moisturizing

🪴Packaging/Texture/Scent:

🌿Cream
- comes in a squeezable tube
- more convenient and hygienic than open jar
- nourishing and velvety lotion or lightweight cream consistency
- doesn't spread out easily; low slip hence may feeling rubbing on the skin unless if your skin is damp/very moist
- fragrance-free; scentless

🪴Results:

🌿Cream
- works great at moisturizing/soothing the skin
- great as post-exfoliation remedy
- but no motivation to use it on a daily basis as the texture is not very spreadable

Honestly, despite the interesting texture, not a fav of mine due to its gloopy texture that leaves a somewhat greasy finish, as well as the use of amiloxate, a close relative to octinoxate here, which may potentially disrupt hormones. Worth trying out if you're interested in the texture and have normal to dry skin!

Sun filters used: uvinul A plus, tinosorb S, uvinul T 150, amiloxate, polysilicone-15

Key Ingredients: 70% sea buckhtorn water, 1ppm vitamin C and 2499ppm of vitamin C derivatives

Impression:
- SPF50+ PA++++
- uses Clear-Fence technology to encapsulate UV-blocking ingredients for better sun protection
- mashed lemon flesh alike consistency
- bitter orange scent
- no white cast but leaves a slight greasy/dewy finish
- can replace moisturizer in the morning


Nothing bad about this serum except for it's slightly higher price. 

- lightweight watery gel consistency that absorbs really well into skin leaving zero stickiness or tackiness
- has a very mild honey alike scent
- skin appears glowing and dewy after using
- moisturizes skin really well
- skin feels comforted/soothed and plump after using

Nothing bad to say about this sun stick but generally I think sun stick has lower sun protecting properties thus is only good as supplementary or reapplication so I won't repurchase. 

This is a 100% chemical sun stick that offers broad spectrum sun protect of SPF50+ PA++++. 

Key ingredients:
- chemical sun filters (uvinul A plus, uvinul T 150, tinosorb S, parsol SLX) are all reef safe and non estrogenic
- Muan red onion rich in germanium (blemish care)
- zinc PCA (regulates sebum and pores care)
- acetyl glucosamine (soothing)

Experience:
- comes in rotatable stick
- melting balm texture that glides on smoothly
- leaves non greasy finish
- fragrance free

This is among my fav sun sticks as it uses chemical filters, has lightweight balm texture that melts easily unlike some sun sticks that feels rather s and hard to apply evenly without rubbing your skin excessively.
