Pros:
UVA protection: 3/5 The sunscreen conforms to European Union guidelines which requires PPD be at least a third of SPF. Broad-spectrum UVA filters Avobenzone, Tinosorb and Mexoryl XL combined provide powerful protection.
Price: 5/5 1.8 dollars per price unit. This 200 ml spray can be purchased for around 15 dollars on ebay.co.uk.
Cons:
Texture: 2/5 White viscous cream that doesn’t dry into a nice matte finish, it stays tacky on skin, And balls off on touch, a line of white demarcation would appear on my neck wearing this sunscreen, a downgrade from its cousin Spray SPF 40.
Transparency: 2/5 Felt like a light bulb wearing this, I look like I’m either sweating up a storm or had my head in a transparent plastic bag, it’s that shiny. The lack of white cast is its only redeeming feature.
Overall: This sunscreen offers upgraded reliable protection on a budget, but the sheer cosmetic inelegance is quite dissapointing, especially when compared with its close cousin Spray SPF 40. Fragrance free. Unlikely to buy again.
