Review: Purito Centella Green Level Safe Sun SPF50+ PA+++

Review:

This sunblock has a strong lavender scent to it. If you’re sensitive to lavender or fragranced products, I wouldn’t recommend it. I eventually adapted to the lavender scent after a few uses. It didn’t bother me that much. So, this sunblock is moisturizing. It didn’t irritate my skin. It kept my skin feeling hydrated. The problem is that I ended up with breakouts due to it being too hydrating. It felt too heavy on my skin. Even though I loved the way it made my skin feel (moisturized), I stopped using it ASAP when I noticed breakouts. This sunblock would work for someone with drier skin without acne that isn’t sensitive to fragrance. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone with acne skin. Well, from my personal experience anyways. I wasn’t too fond of the fragrance even though I wasn’t bothered by it too much. But, I would much prefer a product without fragrance. I won’t purchase again.

Another sunblock down… :/

Review: ArtNaturals Squalane Oil

I’ve always been a fan of squalane oil. A lot of my skin care products contain this ingredient, but I wanted to a serum with only squalane as the ingredient. I picked up ArtNaturals (new brand to me) Squalane Oil to try out. More about it below…

Review:

I was so excited for this oil to heal my dry skin. When I dispensed a couple of drops of oil into my palm. The oil didn’t feel oily, but a little more watery than I expected. This oil didn’t have smell to it. So I used it for a couple of weeks hoping that it would do something for my skin. Sadly, it didn’t. It didn’t hydrate my skin like it’s supposed to. I was very disappointed. Maybe it’s because it feels diluted? Because I purchased another squalane oil product after this. And that oil feels more oily than watery (more about this soon!!). I eventually stopped using this squalane oil on my skin and moved on to something new. As mentioned, I’m using a different squalane oil now. My experience with ArtNaturals Squalane Oil wasn’t that great. It’s supposed to be squalane oil, but…I’m just really disappointed in the outcome. A review on my other squalane oil coming up next! I wouldn’t recommend this particular brand. Skip it.
