Nineless Essentials UV Shield Soothing Sun Cream SPF 50+ PA++++ 58 ingredients
I love the consistency. It’s not thick and it’s not too lightweight or runny. I think it’s perfect.
It gives a fine dewy finish and a glow that I absolutely love. I’ve used it for 12 months in a row and it hasn’t caused any breakouts or acne. If you have dry skin, you’ll also find it hydrating in addition to whatever else you have in your routine. I highly recommend.
