Real story: I was panicking when I almost ran out of my sunscreen; totally finished Yadah sunscreen and reluctant to finish the Keep Cool sunscreen just yet. My sister brought me to Watsons to get a new sunscreen, which I didn't know what to get for myself. I just skimmed through the shelves and the back of every sunscreen packaging for ingredients checking and this one really catched my attention. And I was more excited got to influence my sister to get herself a good sunscreen too! (finally!)
When we came back home, I studied the ingredients each and the more I searched for the ingredients used, the more I surprised. It feels so good when I applied on the back of my hand. Super moisturising and it feels rather gentle on my skin! The texture reminds me a lot of Keep Cool sunscreen, it feels so similar!
On the next day, I used this sunscreen to confirm if I could call this Keep Cool sunscreen dupe. Everything is almost the same but the finishing couldn't beat Keep Cool even though it feels similar at the beginning of the application. But still it's not that bad tho. The time it touches your face, it feels like light gel cream which later turns watery. It finished a bit greasy for 2 and half fingers rule but when I top it with Innisfree No Sebum compact powder, the result is boom! I loveeee! Still, I'm gonna call this Keep Cool dupe. It feels soothing, hydrating and very moisturising!
One thing I noticed about this sunscreen, it softens my skin, even after I wash it off. It makes me want to touch my face even more. I believe this is because of ethylhexyl olivate; a skin conditioning fatty acid that derived from olive oil which it helps to keep important hydrating substances escaping from our skin.
This sunscreen used 3 olive oil based; ethylhexyl olivate, cetearyl olivate and sorbitan olivate, which we know how nourishing it is for people with dry skin. People with dry to super dry skin should check this out!
🌟:3/5
