☀️Missha All Around Safe Block Essence Sun SPF45 Pa+++☀️ Whilst nowadays there’s a general hate towards Asian sunscreens, people question their efficacy, also it doesn’t help that #missha JUST pulled all of their sunscreens off the shelves to reformulate. As far as I can tell, they are not affected by the Purito Sunscreen Scandal™, they’re manufactured by a different company (Cosmecca) and they’ve been reformulating every few years or so. 🙆🏼‍♀️It contains 5 chemical sunscreen filters: Octinoxate, Octisalate, Ensulizole, Uvinul A Plus, Tinosorb S. The product lives up to the essence name, has a lightweight, creamy texture that sinks into the skin instantly and leaves a dewy finish.

🙅🏼‍♀️Parfum/Fragrance and Alcohol can be found here, I prefer to avoid them wherever I can, especially in higher percentages. Potentially sensitising. 🙅🏼‍♀️BHT is a potentially carcinogenic ingredient. Oral exposure to BHT was associated with toxic effects in some studies but absorption through skin has been shown to be minimal. It’s been deemed safe to use in cosmetics but just a heads up for those who don’t want to use products with this ingredient. It wasn’t bothersome on my face but I could smell it for a good while on the backs of my hands… This sunscreen is nothing life-changing tbh. Rating: 5/10
