12
items My ratings for some of the sunscreens that I have tried, which includes both international brands and Asian beauty sunscreens. I am super picky about sunscreen- especially how it smells and feels on the skin. I typically like more lightweight sunscre...

Okay but not repurchasing

10/10: one of the best sunscreens I have tried so far. It feels like a serum, very lightweight, does not break me out + unscented, super affordable. This brand has many really good sunscreens!
SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum
10/10. The texture is very watery and there is no scent!! it feels super comfortable on the skin, more like a serum or skincare than a sunscreen
UNLEASHIA - Niacinamide Banana Sun Serum - YesStyle
8/10. Unscented and hasn't caused any reactions. However, it is on the thicker side so in super humid weather it's not the most comfortable on your skin. But I like it during winter and I think dry skin types will like it.
haruharu wonder - Black Rice Moisture Airyfit Sunscreen - YesStyle
8/10: great- lightweight and watery. But the only con is that it has a slight smell so I have ranked it lower in comparison to other sunscreens
Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence Sunscreen SPF 50+ PA++++ | YesStyle
10/10. Nothing bad to say about it, it's also an Australian sunscreen so it has passed all the tests and is formulated for the strong sun here. The only con would be it’s pricier.
To Save Face SPF50+ Superscreen
10/10. A great option. my mum and sister both use this as well, it’s unscented and doesn’t clog the skin. The only downside would be that it’s expensive.
EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46
Okay but not repurchasing
3/10, controversial, since this is really loved but I only rated it this low because it gives me closed comedones on my forehead. I oil cleanse at night to prevent this but I confirmed that it made break out every time. ‼️But if you are not prone to ...
ROUND LAB - Birch Juice Moisturizing Sunscreen | YesStyle
5/10: it is okay, but feels oily especially during summer even though it has a runny texture. Also has a sunscreen smell
Anthelios Ultra-Light Invisible Fluid SPF50+ | La Roche-Posay
8/10: this is a great sunscreen, but the bottle is tiny + pricier than other sunscreens. There are others that are just as good or even better in terms of texture and how they feel on the skin
Shiseido - Anessa Perfect UV Sunscreen Skincare Milk SPF 50+ PA++++ | YesStyle
5/10: goes on matte but turns oily after a few hours + strong fragrance which is the main reason I would not repurchase. But it is handy to carry in your purse and reapply. (disclaimer: I used this years ago and the formula may be different now.
innisfree - Intensive Leisure Sun Stick | YesStyle
6/10. It's easy to carry around for reapplying sunscreen and it also twists up a very small amount at a time. It's very mattifying, so it would be good for oily skin. The only thing I don't like is the fragrance which is quite floral.
TOCOBO - Cotton Soft Sun Stick - YesStyle
5/10, its not for me. It’s quite thick so I don't find it as comfortable to wear on my skin, even though I have dry skin. also keep in mind it will have a white cast because it is a tone up cream, so it's meant to be brightening. The biggest downside...
