Hello, lovelies~ If you have been reading my blog for quite some time, you will have known by now that I am a skincare junkie. To be more precise, a Sunscreen enthusiast. I would do anything to keep those deadly UV rays off my face. I have a sunscreen review for you that is from a local brand called Wardah.
The sunscreen comes in a separate box that has all of the information about the product. The expiry date is imprinted on the squeeze tube, instead of the box. I like this part because I won’t have to keep referring to the box when the sunscreen will expire. Unfortunately, I no longer have the box, so I couldn't show you how it looks like. :(

It has quite a thick consistency, but blends out easily when spread all over the face. The sunscreen doesn’t leave a heavy or overly sticky residue once applied evenly. It doesn’t give a white cast or mask that you get with thick sunscreens.
Despite it being marketed as a gel that is targeted for people with oily skin, it doesn’t give a matte finish or hold excess oil well. Within an hour, my face is already looking shiny, ready to be wiped off with a blotting sheet. I usually dust a bit of mattifying powder on top to hold off my excess oil for a little while longer.
Overall, this affordable sunscreen may be an option for you who are looking for a sunscreen with a moderate rating of SPF for daily use. I think it would suit those with combination-dry skin, but do take caution in that it won’t be extremely moisturizing for the dry areas on your face.
