#30for30sunscreenchallenge - Naturium UV Reflect Antioxidant SPF50
😎 This is a chemical sunscreen fluid with US-approved filters - shake well before applying!
🌟Overall, Id rate this an 7/10. This UV fluid feels like a textbook sunscreen fluid. It absorbs quickly and leaves a silicone, powdery finish with some residue. It held up well throughout the day and wouldnt have any issues reapplying. However, probably by the third reapplication, this felt like it wanted to pill. Just something to keep in mind if youre relying on this sunscreen for a whole day of sun protection. If Victoria had to choose between the two Naturium sunscreens, she would pick the Dew Glow Screen. The texture is more lotion like but seemed to absorb better on her skin.#sunscreen #skincare #cosmeticchemist")
