September is not the time to be winding down your sunscreen use. The Domestic Goblin uses sunscreen throughout the year.
Here are the newer ones that she purchased recently:
~ Sunsense Lip Balm SPF 50Verdict: Comfortable and non-sticky. Can be used over or under other lip products.
~ Altruist Face Fluid SPF 50
Developed by Dr Andrew Birnie, Consultant Dermatologist based in the United Kingdom. (Recommended by Dr Dray).
Verdict: Light and comfortable to wear (texture is similar to the Australian brand, Sunsense Ultra sunscreen). Would like to see a larger sized bottle offered.
In addition, DG loves the fact that for every product sold, 10p is donated to charities that support children with albinism in Africa.
~ Frezyderm Velvet Face Sun Cream with SPF 50
(Recommended by Nigella Lawson and is favourited by Nafsika from Greece).
Verdict: It starts off with a clear gel texture that glides onto the skin like satin and feels lighter than air. Gives a comfortable matte finish. However, this needs to be used sparingly as it caused DG's skin to break out with over zealous application. Will recommend to others but won't repurchase.
Domestic Goblin also decided to ditch the Bio Oil (thank you, Dr Dray) and purchased the:
~ Tamanu Oil by Life-flo
(Mentioned by Liah Yoo, founder of Krave Beauty)
Verdict: Has a natural nutty scent. Seems to work well on the skin.
December update: the tamanu oil congeals when the temperatures drop. Have decided to try Acwell's Licorice Toner instead. Will share verdict once order is received.
