Missha All Around Safe Block Essence Sun Milk SPF 50+ PA+++

Missha All Around Safe Block Essence Sun Milk comes in a plastic squeezable tube with a nozzle cap. It contains 70ml of product so the bottle is bigger than most sunscreens in the market. It's still lightweight and travel-friendly and the nozzle is a great way of dispensing just enough product to use.

What I liked about this sunscreen is how lightweight it feels on the skin. Th watery-gel consistency is the lightest formula I have tried in a sunscreen. The product feels soothing and cooling and is absorbed readily. It is also non-greasy and non-sticky.

Missha All Around Safe Block Essence Sun Milk is a chemical sunscreen and as such not feel heavy on the skin. It applies well under makeup and does not pill. It also has nourishing and moisturizing benefits because of the "Natural Barrier Complex (flower extracts)."

Personally, I prefer to use this sunscreen during the colder months when my skin feels dry and needs a bit of hydration and TLC. With my oily-combination skin, I find the formula of this sunscreen a tad too moisturizing during the summer.

Overall, Missha Essence Sun Milk is one of my go-to sunscreens for colder months. This chemical sunscreen feels lightweight, hydrating, nourishing, and cooling. It is absorbed readily and doesn't feel greasy even when you apply several layers of it. This also has a soothing and calming effect on the skin. In addition, this doesn't separate or pill underneath makeup and doesn't leave any white cast. It leaves a semi-matte, natural finish. This sunscreen provides maximum sun protection and is affordable. This has a slight perfume fragrance so those who have very sensitive noses may want to avoid this one

 

Pros:

- Lightweight, watery-gel formula

- Moisturizing and nourishing yet non-sticky

- Cooling and soothing effect

- Absorbs readily

- Doesn't disturb makeup, does not pill

- Maximum broad spectrum protection and high SPF 

- Natural finish

COSRX Aloe Soothing Sun Cream SPF 50+ PA+++

This sunscreen has a creamy formula so it can feel a bit heavy for those with oily skin. However, if you have drier and more sensitive skin then this one would be a great choice for you. The aloe extract provides hydration and soothes irritated skin. 

 

Despite the creamy texture, this sun cream is readily absorbed and didn't feel sticky. This is both a physical and chemical sunscreen and I feel that this offers a good amount of protection from the sun. My skin didn't darken or burn while using this under the sun.

 

Additionally, this soothing sunscreen didn't disturb any makeup on top and didn't cause pilling. It also didn't leave any white cast and didn't sting my eyes.
