Purchased & used this back in 2018 and I think I'll just share my experience using this product.
My skin reacted badly to it even though I used it for only two weeks.
My skin felt stinging and irritated at first, then became dehydrated/dry. After a week, I had allergic reaction; swollen face and tiny itchy bumps especially around my mouth and also my arms. I should've stopped using the product as soon as I felt the stinging sensation, but I wasn't as knowledgeable before, so.... 😬.
I couldn't track down which ingredients caused allergic to my skin because only then, I realized there's a whole bunch of ingredients in it. My bad, I didn't do any research before I purchase this product.
I have mild sensitive skin, and usually wouldn't react THIS badly to any skincare that contains less than 2 ingredients that could trigger sensitive skin. I was fooled by the 'Perfect even for sensitive skin' phrase when I saw the packaging 😬. Oops. Learned my mistake. Thankfully my skin barrier is restored now.
I bought this because it has spf in it, and I really liked it! It does not leave a white cast on my skin, it does not break me out ,and it hydrates my skin really well! I actually did not find it brightening. Will purchase again( got it for only 11$ at an online store)
While I am still on the hunt for a spf moisturiser that offers starred UVA protection, this is the only SPF 30 moisturiser I could find for a decent price (£3.39 half price at superdrug) and I am very happy with it. While I find that it does give my skin a whiter appearance when first put on, this isn't a problem when foundation is put over the top and I haven't noticed a massive change in colour on my neck throughout the day. I don't have particulary sensitive skin but this moisturiser feels light and hasn't broken me out at all unlike other richer moisturisers. All in all, very happy with this product and would purchase again at full price if necessary.
