Very small portion-sample size?

I didnt realize how small the size was! When I saw it I was wondering if they sent me a sample size instead? A almost $40 sunscreen.

The Sunscreen Hype I Just Don’t Ge

I’m not sure what the hype is about with this sunscreen. After so many glowing reviews, I expected more. I couldn’t use it near my eyes—it burned badly and made them tear for hours. On my skin, it felt oily and just sat there, which is unusual for me since my skin usually absorbs oils and serums easily. For the price, it’s a big letdown. I’ve since switched to much cheaper Korean sunscreens that work far better. Luxury or not, finding a great high-end sunscreen feels like a chore.

Lightweight, Effective, and Glows Beautifully This

This sunscreen is a game changer! It’s lightweight, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave a white cast—perfect under makeup or on its own. I love that it has Vitamin C for added skincare benefits, giving my skin a healthy, radiant glow. It protects well without feeling greasy or heavy, and it doesn’t clog my pores. A little goes a long way, and it’s perfect for everyday use. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality sun protection with skincare perks!
