MINI-SERIES NEUTROGENA ULTRA SHEER FACE LIQUID SUNSCREEN SPF 70


The amount of sunscream to apply is 3 finger lengths for face, neck AND backs of hands! These areas are out all year.

For darker skin tones, to fade hyperpigmentation, we need to look for sunscreens which also protect against visible light (room lighting) as that can make melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation more prominent.

Any creams with retinol in them should be worn at night as they thin the top layer of your skin (epidermis) and that can cause sunburn or darkening in the sun.

Be sun safe out there!

MINI-SERIES ELTA MD UV CLEAR AND BLEMISH-PRONE OIL BALANCING SPF 50

Life!

Onwards!

MINI-SERIES EUCERIN MINERAL SENSITIVE SPF 35.

Heavy weight coming in at 24% Zinc oxide. I
The reps and the bottle promised it works across all skin tones.

It does not.

The problem with such high Zinc oxide content is folks won't wear enough of the sun cream and end up with much much lower protection levels like SPF 2!

This won't do....

So grateful for the opportunity to run another yesterday. A longer day than I wanted but with 66,000 new friends on the course. đŸ¤©

More showers please. And the ice was a great addition!

Now to recover ready for the next one.

So proud of and for their first marathon efforts!

MINI-SERIES ELTA MD DEEP TINTED UV CLEAR SPF 46

Colour me pleased. The skin match was just like at the stand. The tinted is the way to go for Zinc oxide content of 9.0%!

Happy Marathon Day!

Onwards!

MINI-SERIES NEUTROGENA ULTRA SHERR DRY-TOUCH SUNSCREEN SPF 100+

Sticky and thick on application and it does leave a cast.

Feels very thick on my face. Hope it won't break me out.

Onwards.

MINI-SERIES BIORÉ UV AQUA RICH SPF 50!

Chemical sunscreen formulas work! And no ghosts were made in this one!

It feels light and hydrating. Like it says on the tin!

Onwards!

22/04/2026

MINI-SERIES TIZO ULTRA-ZINC TINTED SPF 40

Was hoping the tinted version would be more blended in.

It is very creamy and smooth on application. It has 20% zinc oxide and well, you can see it!

Not the first I would reach for, for my skin tone anyway.

Onwards!

21/04/2026

MINI-SERIES TIZO ULTRA ZINC NON-TINTED SPF 40!

This is so full of zinc oxide at 20% content!
I'm guessing the tinted version may hide it better - we'll see that soon, I guess.

It does sink in a bit more than first application but the bluey-white tint means some folks may not apply enough of the sunscreen - which drastically reduces the protection and cover they promise.

Onwards.
