Super impressed!

I struggle with melasma and so I need a really good sunscreen. Started using this sunscreen since November and it truly has worked well on my skin. It does have a white cast at first but settles soon after applying. Has a very soothing effect on my skin. Definitely keeping this in Mya skin routine

It's not giving

Of all the SF products I have ever used, this was without a doubt not the best. I have very sensitive and oily skin and applying this on my skin, not just the face but other parts of the body had a stinging effect and my face reacted immediately. The smell was probably the first thing that made me realise I made a bad choice and its too oily on my face, definately going back to the Chemical Sun screen. SF is still great none the less 😁

amazing products

I've been using Skin Functional for 1 week and am loving the immediate effects and positive changes to my skin. I am using the dark mark treatment, anti aging serum with Ultimate Anti Aging moisturizer and my skin feels amazingly nourished. Don't forget the 50 SPF which is a perfect finish to my morning routine and doesn't leave a shine at all.

This is really an amazing product. I usually don't like a separate sunscreen as it tends to make your skin sticky. This product doesn't do it that at all. When applying there is a little white-cast and oiliness, but that lasts about 5min (if that long). As soon as the product is absorbed the white-cast and stickiness is gone. I can easily apply make-up over it. It also feels as if it helps to moisturize my skin, which is a bonus.

As someone who is hypersensitive to the sun, this sunscreen is great at protecting my skin.
Definitely leaves a noticeable white cast with a greasy residue.
