L'oreal UV Perfect 12 hour Long-lasting UV Protector with SPF 50 UVB/UVA PA +++ Mexoryl Filters, Anti-dullness

It has been 3 months now since I changed my holy-grail daily sunblock from Neutrogena to L'Oreal. The reason for the change was simply because I could no longer find my beloved Neutrogena sunblock in any of the local drugstores in my area. I wonder if it has been discontinued. Anyways, even though I was a little skeptical about the substitution, I must say that it has been quite a successful one.

The top 3 things I look for in a daily sunblock are (recap):
1) OK for sensitive skin: I have really sensitive skin (and eczema). Since sunblock will definitely have some "heavy-duty" ingredients, I have to make sure it wont cause break outs or more importantly, it wont cause an allergic reaction.
2) consistency: I prefer a more liquid-y form of sunblock to use on my face as this will definitely feel a lot less heavy.
3) finished effect: no-no to the white pasty finish you get with the typical body sunblock you use at the beach.

Screwed cap, pointed "nozzle" (similar to the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Complete UV Waterlight Lotion)

L'oreal UV Perfect 12 hour Long-lasting UV Protector with SPF 50 UVB/UVA PA +++ Mexoryl Filters (Anti-dullness) fulfilled 1) & 3) with ease. My skin was able to tolerate the product well - no break outs or redness. The product also provides the similar finish that I love from the Neutrogena sunblock - healthy and glowing (thanks to its Anti-dullness properties).

Creamier consistency and purple tinged

One definite difference is the texture. It is not as liquid-y but has more of a creamy consistency. That being said, I was impressed with how light it still feels on the face! And I think the creamy texture also leaves my skin more moisturized and dewy looking. Yea- I think I will use dewy instead of glowing. Healthy and dewy. ^_^

Right out the bottle, the product appears slightly less purple than the Neutrogena. (Many "brightening" or "anti-dullness" products are often purple - I guess purple counteracts dullness as green does to redness and so on).

Notice the brightened area?

In conclusion, I am very happy with the L'oreal UV Perfect 12 hour Long-lasting UV Protector with SPF 50 UVB/UVA PA +++ Mexoryl Filters (Anti-dullness). Will I call it my new holy-grail daily sunblock? Possibly. ^_^ I have gone through 2 and a half bottles over a 3-month period. At MYR39.90 for 30ml, L'oreal UV Perfect 12 hour Long-lasting UV Protector with SPF 50 UVB/UVA PA +++ Mexoryl Filters is available at all major drugstores such as Guardian, Caring and Watson.

Reminder: Product that works for me may not work for you, and vice versa. =)
