Mine to share me some info on sun block?
I'm having problem with my skin cause my skin is too fair and blemished easily under the sun
Thank for sharing

Hmm I'm using Neutrogena Ultra Sheer SPF15 and Olay Total Effects SPF 15 interchangeably for face at the moment. No complain!

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer SPF30 for body. I find SPF55 sticky.

From my understanding, since it's a chemical sunblock and it breaks down after time that said no protection after that so the key is to re-apply every 2-3hrs especially if you're outdoor. Further to note that sunblock does not prevent you from tanning, it prevents sunburn and protects you from skin damage.

Added on May 1, 2008, 10:41 pmAvene Sun Block It's spf 50. It's works fine for me. coz when i apply, the 1st few minutes, it's a little bit sticky. But after a while, it's not sticky.
the price is a little bit expensive. I think this brand is hard to find in KL. I ask my sis bought from singapore for me. It's cost around RM65++

oh, another thing is, you gals try to avoid expose to sun too much.. coz it's going to hurt your skin very seriously.. if you don't take care and avoid the sun light.. when you are young, you don't feel anything.. but once you are old, you will know how serious is after you expose to the sun too much.. Although, you apply sun block, but still it's not a enough good protection for sunlight.

you can try Biore UV Perfect Face Milk SPF 50+. Guarantee 100% non sticky.

Thanx liew and blackburry ♥

Dear liew,

I'll have a look @ Avene, Neutrogena and Biore's sunblock, see which one more suit me.
I tried Avene's cleanser bt it is too mild for me.
However Avene's Thermal Spring Water is really good
I bought Avene product at Guardian.
You can have a try at Guardian around KL.


Dear blackburry,

Thanx for ur suggestion.
I will consider it.
100% non-stick encourages me to own it

lol.. yeah, Avene's skincare is quite good. but a little bit expensive compare with other brands.I only use Avene's sunblock and skin recovery cream. I just change from oil of ulay to avene for moisturizer, i was advice use avene's skin recovery cream as moisturizer. it's not very sticky either. i didn't use avene's cleanser, i just use oil of ulay's cleaner coz it's cheaper.. haha...

oh.. is it? probably i really need to go and check it out. coz i always told that, 'oh, we don't hv the stock' or 'sorry, you need to place a order'.

what type of sunblock for malaysian beach climate?

it doesnt mean higher the SPA, the better it is... u should see the type of the skin u have. if u have oily skin, it is better to use the a lower SPA like 15... cuz it is kinda thick and oily when the SPA is high. and reapply it every 2-3 hours when u think necessary.. and also remember to look at another component: UV protection...

so try to get those with SPA and UV protection...

ya. correct. u only need very high spf if u expose to the sun long hours. if u r working in office n only go out during lunch then spf15 is more than enough. normal ppl only need spf15.

since ur skin is blemished, then i suggest Dermalogica Sheer Tint Redness Relief spf15. its not oily and its very good for sensitive skin. ur skin wont get red easily... im using it...

hi gurl,
juz some advice la..
i think u should go to a beauty consultant coz dey r more professional den any of us..
bdy, u can ask den to check ur skin type n dey will recommended a better skin care for ur skin coz not all products is suitable for every1's skin.
i hv dry inside but oily in de outside skin.. T.T very mah huan de.. so go n hv ur skin check ya!!

hmm I'm using Sun Play Perfect Shield SPF130. LOL
RM29.90

cause I'm always under the hot sun playing football.
that's why I'm using sunblock.

for me better you use an umbrella it help more..

I'm using Biore one. But if you got dry skin, i dont think it's suitable for you. My skin is oily at T zone and some other part. Yeah umbrella also useful. But buy the one with silver layer outside one. I don't know what to call that one. hehe

try Elken's sunscreen

same here A beautician told me before my face is oily but dehydrated..

banana boat lor......cheaper

but it all depend on ur skin which can tahan for what kind of the brand.

some ppl say they cant use banana boat..... it make their skin reddish

can try SUNPLAY, can buy it in WATSON or GUARDIAN...SPF from 50 to 130.....PA from + tp +++...effective in blocking sun burn...

i dont think banana boat suitable for daily use..
