Contains salicylic acid…a low percentage but it’s there. Too dewy for my liking and gets greasy after multiple layers of reapplication. Also wish it was SPF 50…melasma-prone peeps would definitely appreciate that

Tinted, creamy, mineral sunscreen in a squeeze-tube packaging

I apply 2 finger lengths to my face and neck as the last step in my AM routine

Tinted sunscreen so doubles as a foundation with a dewy finish. Quite hydrating, can skip moisturizer with this one. Initially there is a white cast but it settles once dry. Does not pill or sting eyes and contains Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid and Ceramides to keep the skin barrier healthy

A white, opaque cream that comes in a tube packaging with a flip top cover

I use this cream as the last step of my PM routine when using Tretinoin

I love it’s non-greasy, hydrating and soothing properties making it the perfect affordable addition to my skin care routine. It protects and repairs my skin barrier when using Retinoids and glides effortlessly initially creating a white cast which settles after a few minutes

It’s a multi-purpose cream that can be used on any part of the body and is safe for sensitive skin, even babies…I just wish it came in a bigger size

🍀 Sun Project Skin Relief Sun Cream SPF 50+ PA ++++ 🍀

* UV Filters: Uvinul A Plus, Uvinul T 150, Tinosorb M, Iscotrizinol
* Niacinamide, Centella Asiatica Extract, Tocopherol 
* “8-Relieful Complex”: Advanced blend of plant-based soothing ingredients 

Texture: Lightweight, gel-cream texture

Packaging: Squeeze-tube

Skin Types: All skin types, including sensitive skin

What I like? An explosive powerhouse of soothing ingredients packed into a lightweight lotion that dries with a dewy finish. It is non-greasy and does not create a white cast even upon multiple reapplications. Bonus: it does not sting my eyes nor pill when used over my moisturizer. I used this after laser hair removal and it provided a cooling effect upon application and soothed all the redness within seconds. It certainly feels like I’m not wearing sunscreen. Of note, it is reef friendly and non-comedogenic so it won’t clog your pores!

It does not contain Vitamin E or Ferulic Acid but I guess having multiple other antioxidants compensates for that. Another con is that is quite expensive but it lasts long, up to 5 months 

This is a clear, pink Vitamin C serum that comes in an airless pump packaging

I use 2 pumps for my face and neck on dry skin after cleanser in my AM routine

Although it is fragrance-free, the smell of the Acerola Cherry is divine 🍒 It contains a cocktail of 4 Vitamin C derivatives so it’s quite gentle and does not burn or irritate my skin. It also contains multiple forms of HA so I don’t need to use a separate HA serum with this product 



A green, opaque cream-type serum that comes in an airless pump packaging

I use 2 pumps in my PM routine after cleanser on dry skin, to minimize irritation, before moisturizer

I love that it’s encapsulated so it’s quite gentle on my skin and I can use it nightly without the feeling that my barrier is compromised after wearing tight fitting N95 masks for prolonged periods. It’s packed with antioxidants and soothing agents to nourish and protect skin. A great option for aging, problem skin and dullness
