Anyway, yeah I am sorry that this is a fact. I never liked sun screen texture and I feel heavy whenever I topped them with any makeup. And, I do regret it now because my face looks tanned because of that and my acne scar cannot be more bad than how it is already.

And so, I tried to look up for a bunch of brand. Innisfree, Etude House and Missha, they have bunch of many different types of sun screen and I honestly cannot choose what I do need for my skin. And then, I found out that the Innisfree store that is near my house have a watery type of sun screen. Well well well, look what we’ve got here. It is perfect for me because I don’t like any heavy sun screen. And so, because I am a cheapo I got home and try to get them from online stores like Althea or Hermo. Sadly, they don’t have this type of sun screen in their list. Dang, now I don’t know what other sun screen to pick (the sun screens already gone when I tried to get them from the store). So, I browse store websites and found this COSRX sun screen which have so many good reviews about them. They are known for their affordable price but the quality is good. Okay, I do have dry skin and this is made using Aloe? Okay, I’m sold. Let’s try this product for now and here it is. Sorry for the long story anyway, let’s just review it shall we? :DD

Packaging

COSRX always have standard packaging which I’m not really mad about. It contains 50 ml of products and the price is about Rp. 160.000,-. I bought it from Hermo before, but sadly Hermo already closed down from 19^th June this year T__T. There are plenty of Instagram stores that also sell it though, so rest assure. Still, I’m sad that Hermo closed down. They have plenty of products that is not sold in other stores, they also quick when shipping items :(. Because I have no other comments about the packaging, let’s move on into their claim about this product.

Claim

Formulated with 5,500ppm of Aloe Leaf Extract, this sun cream protects skin against UVA & UVB rays while hydrating skin.

This Aloe Soothing Sun Cream not only improves the skin’s moisture barrier, but also protect skin against UVA and UVB rays. This sun cream has light-weight texture, which absorbs quickly and leaves skin feeling intensely hydrated. It’s suitable for all skin types including sensitive skin.

How it works

I like the texture of this sun cream. It’s not that thick and heavy. It feels like moisturizer cream and it helps my face to get some more moisture before I applied any makeup. It is also not sticky and not making my face oily at the end of the day. I have been using it for 2 months and I haven’t got any hate relations with it yet. I never skip to apply it under my makeup every time I am going out. My face looks more brighten because of course it helps to protect the skin from the sun. But, I do not find any differences with my acne scar. Oh well, it can’t be helped. I have the scar for almost 4 months and I do not do anything to prevent it doing hyper pigmentation. So, please do recommend me any acne scar treatment if you do have one T__T. I really need it because my scar hasn’t gone even a bit. I better do some peeling too, hoping that the dead skin will be gone and my scar will be healed :(.   

I used about a bean size of the product for my whole face. Sometimes I add more to cover up my neck. They said to reapply this sun cream every two hours for perfect sun protection during outdoor activity but, I’m not doing it because I find it troublesome. I will need to reapply all of my makeup if I want to reapply my sun screen :|. I rarely reapplying my makeup even, I find it un-hygienic because your face already touching dust or having oil in it. I’m not letting it touch my puff, what if the dirt touches the puff and creating any bacteria there. Yeah, no thanks :|. I will only reapply my makeup if I wipe them off with any makeup remover wet wipes which is not really hygienic because there will be any makeup excess left.

The Scent

I love how it smells! It still has the sun screen smell in them, but it is subtle and I can smell aloe vera too for a bit. It is really good <3.

Results

I can’t really give them full score since this is my first time using sun screen. I will need to compare this with another brand to fully score this sun screen. But anyway, I love how they feels at the skin and I never skipped using it every time I go out. Good for dry skin because they are moisturizing and they have aloe vera inside.
