Sunscreen Review: CHIFURE Sunscreen Milk SPF 50+ PA++++

Ingredients (Good): Hyaluronic Acid

Ratings: SPF 50+ PA++++

Cost: $10-$25 (30ml) depending on where you buy it

It is a Combination Sunscreen with active ingredients of 8% Octinoxate, 6% Titanium Dioxide, 5% Zinc Oxide and 2% Uvinul A Plus.

It did NOT sting my eyes.

It did NOT smell.

It DOES leaves a strong white cast on my skin. Not recommended to wear on its own, it definitely requires make-up over.

It DOES gather a bit in my under eye wrinkles.

It did NOT dry down in 20minutes or less. If you apply a very very thin layer, it will set in 20 minutes. But if you apply enough to create an even thick sunscreen film on your face, which you really need if you want your sunscreen to serve you well all day, it takes about an hour to set. When it dries down, it has uneven white cast. It has dry and sticky feel to it.

It does NOT sits well under make-up. It works best under mineral and powder foundations rather than liquids.

It DOES last throughout the day. It's actually a bit tough to remove. 

This is suitable for any skin type. Though it has 3% alcohol, it did not dry or moisturize my skin. 

It has a milky texture and you have to shake it before using.

I don't love this sunscreen for the price, but I do plan on finishing the bottle.

Ratings: SPF 50+ PA++++

Cost/Value: $41-$83 (60ml) depending on where you buy it 

It did NOT smell.

It did NOT sting my eyes.

It DOES leave a slight white cast on skin due to the small amount of ZInc Oxide. 

It did NOT gather in my wrinkles.

This is Combination Sunscreen with active ingredients Octinoxate, Zinc Oxide, Octisalate, Ensulizole, Uvinul A Plus, Uvinul T-150 and Tinosorb-S. 

It DOES wear well under make-up. It has a very elegant texture and looks beautiful under make-up.

It DOES dries down in 10 minutes to completely sheer finish.

It has a very thin consistency and did not last well throughout the day. Not a good sunscreen for long hours, direct sunlight or exercising.

It has a milky texture and blends out completely sheer with slight white cast.

This is really elegant finish that would work for almost any skin type. I don't think it will over-emphasize texture on dry skin, and I don't think that it will do anything to help mattify oily skin. I would not recommend this sunscreen because of the ensulizole and the high price, but you could definitely do worse.

Sunscreen Review: Ishizawa Shigaisen Yohou Non Chemical UV Cream SPF 50+ PA++++

Ingredients: Hyaluronic Acid, Collagen, Orange Oil, Aloe Leaf Extract, Grape Extract, Chamomile Extract, Barbados Cherry Extract, Mulberry Bark Extract, Skullcap Extract and Wandering Dew Extract. 

Ratings: SPF 50+ PA++++

Cost/Value: between $27-$34 on Ebay (40 grams) / average to pricey

It is 100% Physical Sunscreen. The active ingredients are Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide. Completely free of chemical sunscreen filters.

It did NOT sting my eyes.

It did NOT smell.

It DOES leaves a very strong white cast. If you apply a an appropriate amount, it can get patchy. You really need to wear make up over this.

It dries down in between 20-25 minutes, depending on how much you apply.

It DOES repeatedly pool in my undereye wrinkles, at least 2 or 3 times during the day. 

It changes the look of foundation. Any foundation that you put it under will look a full shade lighter and more powdery or matte than it normally would. It does not become more sheer throughout the day. However, once everything has applied and set, the finish doesn't change. It really sticks around throughout the day and your make-up really sticks to it. It helps my foundation lasts longer in good condition.

It is definitely present throughout the day.

I recommend this for sensitive skin (unless you know yourself to be reactive to Citrus Oils, in this case I would not recommend it). I would also recommend it to acne sufferers. Zinc has a natural calming effect on skin and anti-bacterial properties that will help fight your acne.
