A'Pieu Pure Block Natural Sun Screen SPF45/PA+++

I finally bought myself a proper Korean sunscreen for my face. I was never using sunscreen as much as I should so I thought I would try a Korean one because everybody raves how lightweight they are on the skin. I was searching which one to get, there is a lot of choices and at the end, I went with this one from A'Pieu. Now, that I have been using it all summer, I can finally review it properly.

Apparently, A'Pieu is Missha's younger and more affordable sister brand, I didn't even know that when I placed my order. The sunscreen comes in a bright orange tube that contains 50ml of product. I got mine on eBay for around 6,5€. This is a chemical sunscreen meaning it is lightweight and it shouldn't leave a white cast on the face.

The sunscreen has a very light texture that sinks in fast. I always use the recommended amount (a teaspoon) and I never look white. It is shiny at first and a bit sticky but it sinks in quickly and just leaves a healthy sheen behind. I have also used it under makeup and I didn't have any problems.

The sunscreen has a SPF45/PA+++. I noticed that it protected my face well. I never get burned, so I can't say how well but now at the end of summer when I got a lot of tan, my face is noticeably lighter than the rest of my body. The sunscreen has a strong citrusy scent, it almost feels like I'm rubbing an orange against my face, so keep this in mind if you have sensitive skin.

I like it, I'm glad I went for this sunscreen. It has a light texture that doesn't feel heavy. It moisturizes my skin and after it sinks in it leaves a slight sheen. It is also good for under makeup.

Thank you for reading!
