Dear Klairs

This is a lovely sunscreen. The texture is lotiony and applies smoothly. It's easy to use the full 1/4 teaspoon. It left me a little dewier and more moisturized (shinier) than I prefer, and it's definitely not weightless on me (using the full amount), so not what I usually expect from an Asian sunscreen, but it didn't feel as heavy on the skin as US sunscreens, for sure. If you have normal to dry skin, give this a shot. It was a pleasure to use and didn't cause any camera flashback or sun exposure during a long, VERY hot wedding weekend. It also didn't stain my bridesmaid dress! The scent isn't bad. I detected the chamomile that dissipates quickly, and under that, a chemically scent that must be the filters. This scent tends to linger. I had to quit using this after 5 consecutive days because my skin became itchy, irritated, and with slight red patches. I'm guessing it's either the filters or the niacinamide. I've had issues with niacinamide in the past, so if you're ok with niacinamide, give it a shot. I'll be enjoying using this on my body next summer.

I bought this and honestly, after going through an entire bottle, I thought it wasn't doing anything for my skin. But then I switched to Benton's Snail Bee serum and then BACK to this one, and okay, it's doing something. When I use this, I feel like my papulo-postular rosacea is just not as pronounced as it would be if I wasn't using it. The bumps are still there (they never go away -_-) but they're not super pronounced. One detractor, is if I have a flare up, I don't think this speeds up recovery. It also doesn't seem instant, but it's one of those slow acting over time has improved my skin texture kinda products. When I wasn't using it, it was also like moving backwards, and my skin slowly just got back to a worse spot. It has a thin, gel like consistency that applies evenly and quickly dries with little to no scent. It honestly feels a bit like a hyaluronic acid step and takes no effort to add into your routine. I really hope this doesn't get discontinued, because I'll probably keep using this for the forseeable future. I do wish it was a bit cheaper and easier to find, which is why I took off 1 lippie. I always have to remember to order waaaaaaaay in advance to not overpay for it.

I absolutely love this toner!!! it is HG, i will forever purchase. I use the unscented version and it gives my skin life. LIFE! i have super sensitive, acne prone skin with large pore and this helps my skin a lot. It gives me a natural glow and helps with the texture, my skin feels amazing when i touch it!
