Mary & May CICA Soothing Sun Cream SPF50+ PA++++ is a lightweight, soothing sunscreen based on a complex of fermented Centella and Chemical Filters, creating reliable protection against the harmful effects of the sun's rays, and also contributes to a soothing and softening effect.
The formula of the sunscreen is enriched with a fermented Cica complex (10,000ppm), which consists of Centella Asiatica and 6 types of its active ingredients (extracts). Centella Asiatica, known as Tiger Grass, has active healing, anti-inflammatory and regenerating properties, which will help relieve irritation and inflammation of the skin. Inositol or Vitamin B8 protects cells from environmental stress such as oxidative stress (UV radiation) and thermal stress (dehydration) by controlling the water balance of the skin. Betaine softens the surface of the skin and makes it silky. Niacinamide is a water-soluble vitamin B3 that is able to block the synthesis of melanin, which helps to reduce redness and age spots, evens out skin tone and gives radiance.
The sunscreen has a lightweight texture that is quickly absorbed and does not weigh down the skin, leaving no white residue or sticky feeling after application. All ingredients are EWG certified and safe to use. The dermatologically tested product does not contain harmful chemical components that can cause allergic reactions.
For problematic skin, it works really well. It doesn't make the skin oily!
This SPF is really cool and it suited me (sensitive, combination, prone to redness) more than all the popular ones on Instagram (I tried Beauty of Joseon, Round Lab, Skin 1004 Centella, Bioderma, etc.). It reduces redness and gives my skin a nice moisturized appearance without the need for additional creams and serums, just by applying it over toner (I use rice water). It can also be used with other cosmetics without any issues. It doesn't irritate the eyes or clog pores. I don't understand why nobody talks about it anywhere. Among the ones I've tried, it's probably the most similar to Skin 1004 Sun Serum in terms of its effect on the skin, but in my opinion, this one is better.
I have been using it for only one week, but I already love it. I have dry and sensitive skin. The texture is light, absorbs quickly, doesn't feel sticky, doesn't bleach, and has a pleasant herbal scent. My skin has a nice glow after using it.
When choosing a sunscreen for my sensitive skin, I selected one as if it were my best friend. This cream is excellent in every aspect, except for the fact that it is not waterproof.
I really liked the SPF, it doesn't make the skin look pale or greasy afterwards. And the best part is that it doesn't clog pores and prevents breakouts! I recommend it! However, the price is very high here, on the SkinKits website it is cheaper. And they are official distributors, I don't know why they raised the price for SPF like that.
I have problematic skin. This cream sits on the skin perfectly without rolling off. It provides a moisturizing effect on my skin.
It is suitable for dry and sensitive skin. It applies smoothly and does not leave a shiny finish on the face. It effectively moisturizes the skin. Most importantly, it protects my freckles - there are no more of them as there were before. I am amazed, it really works!
"The best SPF for sensitive skin, super effective without causing any bleaching!"
