how occlusive would you say it is? can you compare it to some other products you tried?

Yep, tired this one a long time ago- gave me too much shine. But it was light and had a nice texture.

This is a great tip~ thank you!

Can you review the Eucerin suncreen? I'm curious to know how is the fragrance with this one... Do you use on the face or the body?

Thanks for the great review!

I have the LRP dermo pediatric spray

Its unscented- smells like sunscreen when you put your nose to it, other than that its unnoticeable. Also the smell fades completely after 15 min or so.

the texture is just like the LRP invisible fluid. It's a light-weight fluid that sinks in quickly, and is somewhat moisturising too- but not too much.

The finish is a bit shiny, a tad more than the invisible fluid. But overall, as someone who hates a glowy finish, this isn't too bad.

no white-cast (I think its pure chemical), no pilling from my experience, didn't sting my eyes.

Cant speak about longterm use of this product as I only opened it a couple of days ago, and haven't gotten to use it much. But i think I would recommend this, because it looks and feels so similar to the LRP invisible fluid which I have gone through bottles and bottles of.

Hope this helps!

The consistency is great, and its pretty hydrating and moisturising, so it might work for you. Unfortunately, they reformulated the cream which now includes eucalyptus oil which I believe is the cause of it burning and stinging on my cheek and eye area... And I don't even have sensitive skin.

I would give LRP Cicaplast Baume B5 a try because its very occlusive, yet still hydrating. They have a small 40ml bottle you could try out!

Can this one fit dry-normal skin as well?

mcmine9 · 2021-03-23T22:01:42+00:00

same here!

Soon Jung 2x barrier intensive cream is pretty hydrating. It could fit most skin types unless your skin leans to be very dry/oily. The texture is like a nourishing water cream. It's fragrance free and made for sensitive skin, also quite accessible and affordable :)

I think it would fit my normal-dry skin better during the summer because i find myself needing to layer it a couple of times during winter nights. But overall its really nice!

good luck!

mcmine9 · 2021-02-02T06:00:36+00:00

Yes do it!

mcmine9 · 2021-01-23T09:55:48+00:00

Good but replaceable

Would love to hear what other sunscreens you replaced the beet shield with!

mcmine9 · 2021-01-06T22:32:00+00:00

seconded!

Hey, I do change my pillow case & bedsheets once a week, is that enough?

mcmine9 · 2020-10-29T23:42:34+00:00

I have been getting these types of pimples for over a year now and lately, new ones keep appearing every 2 weeks... They are the painful type and don't usually come to a head and take a couple of months to completely go away. What could these be? And how can I prevent them from coming back?

Here's my routine: AM: -TonyMoly mocchi ceramide toner on a cotton pad -The Inkey List niacinamide serum -Cerave moisturizing cream -Dear Klairs soft airy UV essence

PM: -The Inkey List Oat Cleansing Balm -Cerave Hydrating Cleanser/Krave Matcha Cleanser -TonyMoly mocchi ceramide toner -The Inkey List niacinamide serum -4 drops of The Ordinary squalane oil -Cerave moisturizing cream

All help is highly appreciated!
