Ignore my terrible hair in this, I just wanted to give y’all an idea of shine.

Overall experience:
Packaging is cute as heck, which is why I’ve had this for a couple weeks and not yet opened it. It’s half the price of my normal sunscreen, so I wanted to give it a go and see how I liked it. It’s a pretty light formula. I found that two fingers, as shown above, covered my face and part of my neck, and that I needed another two fingers to cover the rest of my neck and my chest. It didn’t give me as much of a shine as I feared, so that’s nice for you oilier types. It’s dried down really well, so I don’t anticipate any pilling for reapplication, but I’ll keep you posted. I can see why this sells out a lot — great price point for a high-end-seeming product.
