Sebamed Multi Protect Sun Cream 50+

Hello hello ^__^

I'm back with Sebamed. They also carry a series known as Sun Care. Yes, Jakarta is very hot, yes, we live in a climate where involve the sun 'circulating around' us. At times I did think about the danger of too much sun, but I'm also thinking about spf products that also contain ingredients that aren't so beneficial to the skin.

Let's see what Sebamed has to offer.

There's a lot to take isn't it?! First, the UVA and UVB protection, what does it means?

UVA protection means, it protects the skin from aging due to the sun and UVB protection means, it protect the skin from pigmentation aka brown or dark spots.

The series comes in many many many varieties of SPFs, mine is in 50+, that's the highest they have. Multiple the number by 15 minutes and that's the time it provide for me under the sun being protected. Plus the intensive hydration and regeneration, water and swear resistant for up to 6 hours, and I read, it says, sand resistant too? Wow! It's time to go to the beach!!!

The formula also made for those with high sensitivity and sun intolerant. Sun intolerant? Yes, those which skin become so red like a boiled lobster within minutes under the sun. They need a good SPF 15-20 minutes before hitting the sun. So. always prep your skin indoor before going out ya as the lotion need to be settled first on the skin before doing their job.

The multi function product is suitable to be used on face and body. The lotion is white (like the image below), feels light on the skin, pH 5.5, free from harmful chemicals, easily applied and non greasy too.

For makeup user? The sun protection can be used under makeup, right after skincare. Now, I know it gives the skin a great protection under the sun, but for beauty enthusiast, I know your question, will it gives a white cast? Honestly, a bit yes. But since it can be used under makeup, a good powder should help ease it out.

Above is the image when first applied, and below after massaging them gently. As seen, the sun cream does sink in nicely, and the best thing as well, the product is suitable for kids too! The comfortable feeling is quite pleasant, even thou it contain high protection the product doesn't feel heavy and sticky on the skin. In fact, quite comfortable for daily usage. We do live in a tropical environment (South East Asia) so this product will definitely be beneficial. For daily usage I don't feel the need to touch up or reapply, I only reapply during swimming or baring the skin in a constant heat of the sun like at the beach.

Thank you so much Sebamed Indonesia.
