I’ve been troubled with small red spots and marks on my face for years. I have tried a number of products but yhis is the one that works. The spots seem to be under control.
Rich moisturizing with excellent 2-in-1 sun protection helps you dispense with sunscreen I loved and recommend it for mature, dry and dehydrated skin is not good for oily skin or grains
It was okay for some time but then i started feeling like its really heavy on skin.but if we want use one product instead of moisturiser and sunscreen its a good go to
The cons are that you need to work quickly with this product. Once you apply to the skin it has a white cast that can be rubbed in but if you keep on rubbing the product or wait a few mins and go back and re rub it does pill. I therefore do a section of my face at a time. I do find I struggle with my make up on top of this, even if I wait 30mins or an hour to then apply. It tends to make my make up look cakey underneath and nothing seems to fix this issue. Overall not a bad product if you have sensitive skin and don’t wear make up. Would be ideal for a day around the pool sunbathing. Also not had any issues with this stinging my eyes.
Today is my 3 day when I’m using this SPF50 for my face.
Today i do a challenge – i was in sundeb for 10min (evening time, aun bed is hot amd strong heat).
And my face haven’t changed. Yes, get red but no pigment marks!!! I always worry about area between nose and upper lip for it, pigmentation looks like a moustache what i hate!
So this cream, is amazing! Now this product will be my best one, and definitely i will take this for coming holidays in Turkey.
That’s a life changer, I can’t recommend more than this one. It’s amazing!
– No allergic reaction, redness, hives or stinging.
– My eyes water no more than normal, and there’s no stinging if the product gets close to my eyes, and there’s no strong fragrance throughout the day to be bothersome.
– My skin broke out in a very minor way as it got used to the product, but that’s not uncommon for me with new products.
– My makeup actually sits quite nicely over it. The product has a tackiness – like lots of sunscreens or dewy products – which helps products stick, though if you’re rough or other skincare products don’t mesh well together, it might pill. It’s also incredibly dewy/shiny/greasy looking on the skin, and as someone with dry skin I don’t hate this, and while I try to powder minimally as a rule, in the hot weather with this sunscreen on, I’ve been powdering more and but haven’t been feeling cakey or dry.
– As a moisturiser it’s fine, but I either use another underneath in the morning or do a sleep mask moisturiser because that works for me.
– I can’t really comment on white casting as I’m pretty pale, but I don’t notice any lightening on darker areas such as under eyes.
– As a SPF50 with UVA/UVB protection, I’ve not burned or tanned, but I try not to be in full sun for too long because I do burn easily, so I hope it’s working!
Overall I’ve really liked this product, but I have one gripe it’s such a small tube!
According to dermatologists, for good protection with SPF you’re supposed to use a 1/4 teaspoon per application on your face (just your face!) which is 1.25ml, so in this 50g bottle, there’s approximately 40 applications, and that’s without the recommended reapplication throughout the day. Have a bigger face, want to use it on your neck, chest or ears and that number of applications goes down.
I’ve had this product 33 days the tube is getting suspiciously light. Since I used it on my neck I’m going to assume I won’t make it to forty days.
So Cetaphil, you lose a star for size, but you’re a good products, so if could you make this in bigger bottles for those of use who used SPF daily throughout the year, I’d be really grateful. Please and thank you.
UPDATE: I think I ended up with approximately 45 days of use out of one of these tubes, I did write it down but forgot to update it at the time, and by the end of last summer (when I wrote the review) my skin looked great! Dryness was gone, skin texture minimised, redness reduced and my skin felt really soft and honestly the best it had in years right up until the heating was put back on in the house continuously and my skin revolted against the dry air. This year I’ve not been using it because for the quantity I can’t justify the price sitting at the higher end – when I bought it initially it was approximately 6/7, now it’s at 9, which is still cheaper than Boots at 12! – and so alongside my regular moisturiser I have been using up sunscreens I already had (Garnier Sensitive Advanced Baby in the Shade 50+ and Nivea Sun UV Face Q10 50). They’re fine, but my skin isn’t that happy, it make my eyes water and I’m breaking out since including them in my routine, so I basically check this listing every other day just in case there’s an offer. Frankly I think I just need to bite the bullet and spend the money because I want my skin to look the way it did at the end of last summer, and the only product I added into my routine and continuously used was this. Still wishing it was either marginally cheaper or came in a bigger bottle, so it’s still four stars, not five (though it’s really a five).
