My Review
I knew I was really going to like this sunscreen as it contains Glycerin and Sodium Hyaluronate which are my favourite hydrating ingredients. I always include these in my REESON makeup products*, which is my own brand*.
This is a chemical sunscreen packed with active ingredients which protect and nourish the skin at the same time. It is super lightweight and blends and absorbs into the skin really easily.
I have been skipping moisturiser and just use it over my serum. If you wanted a really quick routine who could use this straight on to cleansed skin, as it has some lovely ingredients in there.
I love the texture of this SPF product. It is light and silky, and as you massage it into the skin, it has a featherlight, almost water-serum texture that feels super calming and nourishing on the skin.
It gives a gorgeous glow and apart from that, it is instantly invisible on the skin, taking absolutely no work to become indetectable. If you have oily skin, you will definitely want to skip moisturiser, and if you’re dry, you may want to layer it on top of moisturiser. But have a play, it depends on the type of finish you want. It could even be enough if you have dry skin, because it’s such an effective moisturiser, even though it is lightweight.
The Aurelia London Hydrate & Protect Anti-Ageing SPF50 Moisturiser sits really nicely under my makeup. I like to wait 10 or 15 minutes for my SPF to settle into my skin before I apply makeup. I feel like this allows for the most even coverage of protection.
I think if you love a glow, this will be absolute perfection for you. It has such a pretty finish and is so soothing and comfortable on the skin. I think it’s great.
