I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...
Thoughts:
- Very, very white finish
- Did I mention, this sunscreen is so WHITE? (I'm maybe NC20 or close)
- The smell made me cough a bit when I initially opened the tube but it doesn't smell so strong after that
- The consistency is a little thicker/drier than some other creams (not by much) but it makes the application tiny bit more difficult and time consuming
- The tube feels a bit clumsy to use
- I just... look dead with this product on my face
+ Dries fast, in about 1-3 minutes
+ Leaves a nice powdery finish
+ Easy to blend foundation on top of it
+ Hides some of the imperfections effectively, not the redness much though
+ Doesn't get sticky, shiny, at all! I can't feel I'm wearing it
+ Didn't start to melt when I was a bit sweaty

+ Doesn't smell like (alcoholic) sunscreen, smells like a cheap perfume
+ Didn't break me out (physical sunscreen)
+ Bigger bottle than other sunscreens I have bought, value for money

* Yellow colour of the tube makes it stand out from all the other make up products on my table, easy to find in a hurry (yes, I'm not very organized)
* I gave this sunscreen to my sister who is as pale as a ghost
* I really really wanted to be able to use this! :( The powdery finish, the staying power, feeling... just perfect
* I didn't know "tone up" and "make up" sunscreens are supposed to tone up your skin into whiteness but now I do and I will avoid them (I thought they just would be slightly tinted)

Buy again?
No, can't use it. So sad!
Worth the money?
Yes definitely if you are extremely pale and don't want a dewy/natural finish! In any other case... no, because it's unwearable.
