CICA Soothing Sun Cream SPF50+ PA++++

If you don’t mind the unpleasant artificial smell then you’ll like this

It doesn’t leave white traces on my brown skin. It’s very light, non greasy and non sticky and therefore doesn’t feel heavy or impart an unattractive shine

However, does it work to protect the skin? That’s impossible for any of us to say because many products claim to have high protection factors but when lab tested, were found to be underperforming their said factor. If scientific evidence could be provided then that would be a different story

To say it works as a 50SPF should, I can’t and nor can any of the other reviewers

This cream protects the skin very well and has a nice, light texture. It absorbs well into the skin. I have sun-sensitive skin and this cream protects it well, I am very satisfied with this product

It's a good sunscreen, doesn't leave whitecast It's also nicely calming skin however it's a bit burning at first

Perfect composition:

the set of UV filters is one of the best and most reliable that I have come across - a combination of chemical filters of the latest generation, broad spectrum, maximum photostable, with minimal risk of skin irritation (Uvinul A plus (diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate), Uvinyl T 150 (Ethylhexyl triazone ), Tinosorb M (Methylene Bis-Benzotriazolyl Tetramethylbutylphenol), Iscotrizinol (Diethylhexyl butamido triazone))

The cream is designed for sensitive skin, therefore it includes a powerful active complex aimed at healing, reducing redness and moisturizing (centella - root and leaf extract, madecassoside, adenosine, vitamin E, betaine, hyaluronic acid and inositol). Free of alcohol and harsh ingredients

Why I love:

light aqueous texture without grease or stickiness, good hydration

Absorbs quickly on my combination skin

does not highlight, does not leave a white trace

does not irritate the skin, soothes redness, does not sting the eyes (I safely apply it to the skin of the eyelids) - and I have sensitive skin!

there is no feeling of film, the skin does not suffocate in the heat

sun protection “without holes”, it really gives the maximum protection stated on the package (my fair skin doesn’t even turn pink when exposed to the sun for a long time)

It has a faint scent, but does not leave a white cast. So that is nice. Also very nice if you have sensitive skin.
