Let's Talk About Suncreens


Using sunscreen is very important, especially on your face, where your skin is thinner. Not just when you are on the beach or by the pool, even on daily basis when you go out to school, work etc. I was one of those people who never got sunburned, ever. I was also lazy and I hated that stiky feeling sunscreens left, so I didn't even bother to use them. But for the last few years now, I have been using them a lot. I know sunscreens can get quite expensive and if you use them a lot, it can get to a lot of money, but think this way, you will protect your skin and that's what matters. For today I have prepared four mini reviews of sunscreens that I'm currently using, one of them is also my favourite and is also budget friendly.

Avon Sun+ Moisturizing Face Cream
I got sent this sunscreen by Avon and I love it. I think I have never had such a great sunscreen for the face. I always hated putting sunscreen on my face, because they were always greasy and they left my face shiny. I remember last year, when I bought an expensive one from Afrodita, because I thought expensive ones are better. But they aren't. But this one from Avon is great. The consistency is very light, it sinks into the skin quick and it doesn't leave your face shiny. I will definitely bring it with me to the seaside.

Nivea Sun Protect & Bronze Tan Activating Protecting Oil SPF 30
Normally I don't use this kind of products (except for the Sundance sunscreen, but that one doesn't do anything for faster tanning, it's like a normal sunscreen). This one it's basically like an oil, that you spray on your body. I didn't like using it, because it's very greasy and sticky. So I used it only a couple of times. In that time I didn't really use it for a long period of time, so couldn't test if you really tan faster with it. This type of sunscreens probably aren't healthy, even if they have spf, and when I'm on the sun, I like to have a good sunscreen. If you are interested in such type of sunscreen then maybe try it, but as a normal sunscreen I wouldn't use it, because it's so greasy.
UPDATE: I took it with me to the seaside to properly test it out. It isn't so greasy that I got I feeling at first. It sinks into the skin fairly quickly. But you have to be careful, I didn't pay attention and I had a white shirt as a cover up and the sunscreen left marks on it that I can't get out. And the last, does it work? I tan very easily, but I did get a feeling I tanned faster.

Laboratoires de Biarritz Algamaris Creme Solaire Visage Bio SPF 30
Also for the face. This one has a slightly thicker consistency than the Avon one. Avon's spreads more easily, I also think you need a little more of this one to cover the entire face. But it has the same finish like the Avon's one, so it isn't greasy at all.

Sundance Schutz & Bräune Sonnenmilch SPF 30
This is the sunscreen I already talked on my blog here. I love this one. I always take it with me when I'm on the seaside or I'm by the pool. It says on the packaging you should tan faster with it, but I didn't notice that. I love that it isn't sticky or greasy. It sinks into the skin very quickly. Also the sunscreen that is left on the hands after, is quickly gone, so you don't have to worry about that either. It is also very cheap compared to others, around 4-5€.

Thank you for reading!
