Hi everyone! I know it’s been a while since I posted but between work and vacation, I’ve been a bad movie reviewer. BUT that will get back on track here very soon! Iron Man 2 is on my list to see ASAP.
And since I’m just back from vacation, I had to write up a product I used during my trip and loved. SPF and sunscreen is a must for me and my super sensitive skin but I hate wearing beach sunscreen when I’m not at the beach because it’s greasy. So I’m bad about wearing it on my non-beach time, which means I tend to get sunburned a little bit more than I should.
Until now!
CVS Ultra Dry Sheer Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30
How much it costs: $7.99
Where you can buy it: CVS, CVS.com
What I like about it: It’s very light and spreads generously on the skin. Plus, being so light, it absorbs easily and really leaves the skin feeling soft. I always felt with regular sunscreen that it didn’t moisturize as well but this does both and really left my skin feeling nice. I also didn’t feel like I needed to re-apply right away and that even with sweat, it didn’t run down or off my skin easily. Which is nice. Also, it does really give a nice SPF protection with no chemical scent. I only got sun where I didn’t apply this and the rest stayed protected, despite long hours in the hot sun. Plus, it sells in a 3oz tube so you can put it with your quart-size carry on toiletries. Oh and it’s light enough to apply on your face too.
What I don’t like about it: Because it absorbed so easily, I had to immediately start spreading it once I put it on so be ready to move fast! That’s not a very bad thing but made certain parts of my arms more protected than others :)
Final verdict: Love. I plan to get more from the upcoming Vegas trip for Bloggers in Sin City and carry it with me.
Are you an SPF addict?
