CeraVe Facial Moisturizing Lotion AM with Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 30 27 ingredients
goes on patchy and is hard to blend in (just when you think you’ve blended it enough, there’s still more blending to do.) it also pilled immediately after application.
luckily, it was just a free sample. i’m a korean and japanese sunscreen girl through and through, but even i think there are better american sunscreens than this one.
It gave a white cast and did have pilling. It also made my oily skin even more oily.
