Sofina iP Skincare UV 03 for Skin Prone to Blemishes SPF50, 30g (Ocean Energy)

Since Sofina IP's skincare products suit my skin, I also purchased this UV sunscreen. It doesn't sting my eyes, doesn't irritate my skin, and doesn't leave a white cast. It's a very easy-to-use and reliable sunscreen for everyday use. The price is also great. It's thick, so my makeup tends to smudge, so I make sure to press it firmly with tissue before applying my base makeup. I think I'll be relying on this for a while when my skin is rough.

I have combination skin that tends to be dry on the inside, and a little sensitive, so I used this product for dry skin. I used it throughout the summer and winter. I basically use this, Anessa's white UV primer, and Elixir's Day Care Revolution for different purposes. It didn't feel sticky after applying in the summer, so it didn't interfere with my makeup. It's not advertised as waterproof, but it's water-resistant, and since gold Anessa and other products irritate my skin, I used this one when I was at the pool. I layered this and the popular white Anessa, so I'm not sure which was the cause, but I did feel a bit itchy when I sweated a lot. The fall pool season is over, but I still have some left, so I wanted to use it up! That's how I used it on a regular basis. When the summer heat was still lingering, Derevo felt sticky and required wiping with a tissue, but this one was smooth and didn't interfere with the primer or foundation I applied afterwards, which was great. With the dry winter and the onset of cold weather, this product left my skin dry after applying makeup, causing it to break down by the evening. Since I've also started wearing masks to prevent infection for work, this has made my makeup break down even more. It's light and refreshing, but I felt like it wasn't moisturizing enough for winter. In conclusion, I didn't typically use this product alone in the summer, but I think its refreshing texture made it easier to use in the summer. The unique scent of Sofina IP is a matter of personal preference, and since it's applied to the face and adheres closely, the scent lingers for a while. I'm debating whether to repurchase it next year. If I can't find a sunscreen that's resistant to water and sweat but doesn't itch, I might use it again.

I bought this last summer and used it until recently. It's a slightly thick white cream with no corrective effect. Layering Shiseido's serum foundation with Maquillage Snow Beauty gives a semi-matte, natural finish. While I did experience dryness around my cheeks in the summer under the air conditioner and in the winter under the heater, my makeup didn't come off as easily around my nose, so it's a mixed bag. It might be better to use it in conjunction with 01 for dry skin, but it's a bit of a pain... I wasn't sure about its effectiveness in preventing dark spots, but it does offer sun protection, and I haven't noticed any new dark spots. The scent wasn't too bothersome, so I'm considering trying 01 next.

This is my third purchase. I've been using this product all summer. I like the texture and have no complaints, so I keep buying it.
