#INNISFREE SUNSCREEN REVIEWS SKIN#
Sunscreen is a crucial part of your skincare routine for protecting your skin from damaging UV rays. You can see my hand in the before and after photographs below.If you’ve been on the lookout for an affordable sunscreen at Sephora, this Innisfree sunscreen is one of the best-priced options out there. I have an olive skin tone (which is much darker than most Koreans) and yet I didn't find that my skin had a white cast at all after application.
The cream is a thick, white formulation which I didn't find left a white cast on my skin at all. I find currently, this formula offers the perfect makeup base for my skin and I love how soft and smooth my skin is after using it. If you have oilier skin, Innisfree does offer a formula called Eco Safety No Sebum Sunblock which absorbs sebum and provides more of a matte finish. I have normal to combination skin (although it is drier in Winter times and oilier in the summer) and right now this suncream is perfect for my skin type.

According to Innisfree, their products are free of parabens, artificial dyes, ethanol, animal ingredients, and mineral oil. It’s also made with their famous “5 free” formula. The Innisfree Eco Safety Perfect Sunblock SPF 50+ PA+++ is made with organic sunflower oil and organic green tea grown on Jeju island in Korea. It sinks into my skin instantly so no waiting around for that typical suncream shine to go away. It's mattifying, non-greasy and acts as a primer for my skin, allowing my makeup to glide on top effortlessly. The Eco Safety Perfect Sunblock from Innisfree combines all of my needs in a suncream. That was until I tried the Eco Safety Perfect Sunblock from Innisfree. I have always been a BIG fan of the FaceShop's range of suncreams (like their Oil Cut range which is great for oilier skin and provides a matte finish) and ha been alternating between that and their Natural Sun Eco Power Long Lasting Suncream. Thankfully, these days, suncreams are no longer these thick lotions that turn you a ghostly shade of pale, and there are so many skin care lines that are producing suncreams with various properties. And as you can see, no sunscreen can block all UV rays. They may seem like negligible differences, but if you are light-sensitive, or have a history of skin cancer, those extra percentages will make a difference. SPF 30 keeps out 97 percent and SPF 50 keeps out 98 percent.
Here's how it works: If it takes 20 minutes for your unprotected skin to start turning red, using an SPF 15 sunscreen theoretically prevents reddening 15 times longer - about five hours.Īnother way to look at it is in terms of percentages: SPF 15 filters out approximately 93 percent of all incoming UVB rays. SPF - or Sun Protection Factor - is a measure of a sunscreen's ability to prevent UVB from damaging the skin. Most sunscreens with an SPF of 15 or higher do an excellent job of protecting against UVB. Sunscreens vary in their ability to protect against UVA and UVB. They also exacerbate the carcinogenic effects of UVB rays, and increasingly are being seen as a cause of skin cancer on their own. UVB is the chief culprit behind sunburn, while UVA rays, which penetrate the skin more deeply, are associated with wrinkling, leathering, sagging, and other light-induced effects of aging (photo-aging). Two types of ultraviolet radiation, UVA and UVB, damage the skin, age it prematurely, and increase your risk of skin cancer. Sunscreens are products combining several ingredients that help prevent the sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation from reaching the skin. The Skin Cancer Foundation has the following to say about sunscreen: It's something that is just not worth missing out on. Now that I am older and wiser (and the first few wrinkle.ahem, I mean 'laugh' lines are appearing) I have been making sure to wear a face suncream every day, without fail, and have incorporated it into my beauty regime. Having grown up in a country that has plenty of year round sunshine (South Africa) I was exposed to A LOT of sun growing up, and even though my parents were very cautions and made ma layer up with cream and hats when outside, I still spent a lot of my teenage years baking myself outside to achieve the perfect tan. It should be worn every day regardless of how much sun you actually see in the sky.įor my own skin, I suffer from pigmentation ( click here to read about my new wonder product from Innisfree) and one of the main causes of skin pigmentation is sun exposure. Even though it's technically winter here in South Korea, whether you wear sunscreen (or suncream for my South African readers and sunblock for my American readers) should not be dependant on the season or weather.
