Most of us are aware with the importance of wearing sunblock before going out on the heat of the sun. Especially on the country like ours where most of the time we resort on sunblock with SPF 50 to achieve maximum protection. Morning is usually when we apply the sunblock but there are times when we have to go outside when the sun is at its peak. Meaning we have been wearing the sunblock for at leastf our hours and in need of reapplying it. But how do we go about on doing this because most sunblocks are in liquid form and on top of that they’re very greasy!

Firstly, there’s one sunblock that is in liquid form that I can use for touch up, that’s the Biore UV Perfect Milk that I’ve previously reviewed here. The texture is very light that I can just tap the liquid onto my face to touch up my sunblock. The result is non-greasy/oily, and it results in velvety finish so you don’t need to put powder on top of it if you don’t have a very oily face.

Secondly, you can try to look for the very rare powder type sunblock to use for touch up. One of them is Peter Thomas Roth Instant Mineral Powder SPF 45 sold for $30 at Sephora. The tube is slim and it comes with a brush, so it’s very practical to bring in your purse!

Thirdly, as the last solution, you can resort to pressed powder that’s already have SPF in it. Use it before you’re going out of the office so that you can have that extra coverage before you face the sun. Make up brands usually have powder that comes with SPF 15. As an alternatives, you can also use finishing powder from mineral make yp since by default, mineral make up contains SPF 15. Try Everyday Minerals Natural Reflections Finishing powder or MAC Mineralize SPF 15 Foundation Loose.

Hopefully, with this extra measure we can keep our youthful skin a little longer.

sebenernya yang dianjurkan di negara tropis kayak indo itu diatas 25 spfnya, kalo 50 yah berarti bagus dong, dan bener tuh kalo pake sunblock harus diulang, soalnya cuma bertahan 2 jam, nah dioles ga usah tebel2 ntar malah mukanya mengilap banget, tipis aja, soalnya dia udah jadi tameng buat sinar matahari, pilih yang bisa uv a, dan b yaaa..

Juliettehasagun – kalo menurut gue apapun bentuknya yang penting jenis protection yang dia berikan yang paling penting. SPFnya berapa, dan apakah dia offer broad spectrum protection, etc.

Peni – thanks for the insight. Emang di jkt ini harus sabar2 apply sunblock yah. Gue ajah badan males banget applynya, tapi muka sama bust lumayan sih rajin.

Amal, gw pake nivea water based itu tanpa bedak diatas nya, hasil nya mate, dan ga gampang oily walau kulit gw kombinasi-berminyak ..
kalo siang ga sempet cuci muka, biasa nya si apply mmu juga, beda kah kalo gw apply nya mmu foundie bukan finishing powder ??

Piscanilie – nggak beda kok secara MMU emang pada dasarnya udah naturally have SPF 15 cuman foundiekan lebih tebel dari finishing powder yah.

Gue cuma berharap si Peter Thomas Roth itu akan segera hadir di Indonesia atau nggak ada produk sejenis dengan harga yg lebih murah lagi. Btw finishing powdernya Ciel Minerals itu berarti ada SPF 15 juga yah? Tp gue kurang yakin sih mal kl itu memberikan perlindungan cukup walaupun masih mending daripada gak touch up sama sekali sih…
