I have tried so many sunblocks, and the common problem is always that they make my face oily and leave a heavy feeling of product blocking my pores.
This Nivea sunscreen is a game changer for me. I have come to accept that all sunscreen will leave an element of greasiness, this was definitely the lightest I have ever used. The small (and cute!) bottle has lasted me a full year of use.
The smell isn't too 'chemical' in nature either. The product is light and quite thin, yet has still provided me with good sun protection for a long time.
Nivea, is an iconic, well known brand that I'm drawn to when I buy sunscreen. It's one you can easily buy from the supermarket, which is where I picked up this little gem.
What appealed to me, was the smallish, cute size of this sunscreen. It's just the best size to pop in your bag, and it doesn't take up much space at all. It means you can always have sunscreen when you need it!
The packaging is stylish and modern, in the crisp white bottle with the sky-blue lid. It's made of sturdy plastic and the lid screws on to keep the formula secure. It's never leaked, so it's just perfect for when you are on the go.
My skin has a tendency to be dry and sometimes reactive. This formula is nice and gentle and feels lovely on my skin.
The consistency is nice and light, just a small amount goes a long way. It's perfect to just apply to my skin before foundation, to protect my fair skin from the sun.
It gives a high protection (spf30), and it does the job well of protecting my skin. I really like that it's so light that I forget I'm wearing any sunscreen.
Overall, a really nice sunscreen that ticks all the boxes for me.
