innisfree no sebum sunscreen


I decided to try this as the words "no sebum" catches my attention. 

Like what online reviewers say.. It does give a white cast. 

It is best to apply this in front of a mirror as it is thick and dries or fast. It might leave white patches on your face if not applied evenly.

But this is still my new favourite! It does help in blurring out my uneven skin texture and controlling my oily T zone, much better than other sunscreens that I have ever used. I only use this under makeup due to the white cast . I got compliment on my look (which I normally don't) when I use this with catrice goodbye pores primer followed by ZA Airy Flawless powder foundation. 

I will definitely continue to buy this. 😁

Pros:
Affordable, drugstore price
Works well under makeup
Controls sebum
Blurs put uneven texture

Cons

White cast
Difficult to spread

Update: Dec 2021
I currently mix it (1:2 ratio) with other sunscreens. It makes other sunscreens more matte and at the same time more blendable as compared to using this sunscreen on its own. =)

Biore UV Perfect Milk (40ml)


Biore
UV Perfect Milk (40ml)
SPF 50+
Price:$13.50



Pros: controls oil, texture, spreads easily, affordable, good packaging, waterproof
Cons: None

I have been using this product for more than 1 year. Though the bottle looks small, it is able to last for about 6 months for me, with

daily usage. There are several choices for this product (eg. moisture milk for dry skin).

The content is a watery lotion, spreads easily, and gives a matte finish. Unlike other sunblocks that leaves a shiny film on our face,

this product is not only non greasy, it also helps to control the shine.

I love the design of the bottle as it is slim and small (convenient for traveling). Though it doesn't have any fanciful design, the content is definitely worth buying.

Ganier Pure Long Lasting Shine Control Moisturizer (75ml)

Ganier Pure Long Lasting Shine Control Moisturizer is specially formulated for oily and combination skin that can be shiny.
Its formula with White clay powders and zinc agent matifies, absorb and controlling excess sebum. Your skin is hydrated all day long with no greasy feel and is left feeling pure, with a long-lasting matified look.
Price: $5.50


Pros: Handy packaging, affordable, found in most drugstores
Cons: Doesn't really control shine, not moisturizing enough

The blue bottle is small and compact. The scent of this moisturizer is almost the same as its toner, but less strong, which is good.

However it didn't really help to control shine. My skin starts to shine after 2 hours. For me, this product is not moisturizing enough as when my skin feels tight after cleansing, applying this product does no help in the tightness.

Though it is affordable, I don't think this product is worth buying as it didn't really do as its description promised.
