Kiehl's Ultra Light Daily UV Defense SPF 50 PA+++ UVA [Review]


As most of you know, sunscreens have always been a big part of me since I'm psycho when it comes to pigmentation and ageing. Thus, I was truly glad to be one of the winners to try this in full size from Tammy's Blog.

Overall, I love Kiehl's. I do buy them even when they are not on sale, technically, they never have any sale or discounts. The best time for you to buy them is by joining member and wait for your birthday discount. Though, a good product sells, for me I find myself kept repurchasing their Avocado Eye Cream that's great for super dry under eyes.

Now with this sunscreen, I can't complain because it's quite a nice product over my moisturiser.



The texture is not watery, is not runny neither is it super thick. It's a light gel texture that most of us will like and leaves a nice moisturising effect on my skin instead of feeling oily or sticky. Thus, making it perfect for an everyday use. However, I suggest using a sunscreen with a thicker formula for those fun in the sun days.

I'm extremely appreciative when a sunscreen comes with SPF50 followed by PA+++, it's probably a psychological thing but it does makes me feel much protected from harmful rays when I have them on.

On the other hand, due to its moisture factor, I find it hard to work with some of my higher moisture content foundations, especially BB or CC creams. I find myself patting on powder just to make sure that the over dewyness layer on my face last longer and doesn't transfer from my face. Thus, mostly I like using this as my very last step of product on my face, it's great for my no makeup day face.

It ain't cheap when it comes to Kiehl's. This 30ml bad boy cost RM140. As much as I do like it overall, I can't justify my splurging on this small tube of sunscreen when I know I can find some other cheaper alternatives that works pretty much the same.

Printing My 2014 Memories With Canon! [HUGE GIVEAWAY]

Image
2014 has been a year of change. So many things had happened, big, small, good and bad, all I can say is that I am thankful. Or to be exact, I choose to be thankful because some things are out of our control.  I thank God for the great things that happened in my life, things such as getting a job that allows me to travel and experience different cultures, having the opportunity to do what I love which is writing and blogging, and to meet new people as well as reunited with friends that I've not seen for a really long time. I also thank God for the unpleasant moments and experiences because they are priceless, a lesson learnt for me to prepare for my future self. Not only making me stronger and more mature, but it also taught me about humility and the gift of silence.

The Immense Pressure, The Exploitations, And The Gratifications Of A Malaysian Blogger

My beautiful yet talented girlfriend of mine took this photo of me :) Thank you. Warning: This might be a long and wordy blogpost with a genuine intention to mainly express my thoughts as a blogger who has been in the industry for quite some time. This post is certainly not by anyway trying to shame any brands or PR companies, if name(s) are mentioned, it's because that incident actually happened. I think it's about time I said something. I used to stop myself from writing these kind of somewhat controversial blogpost because I was afraid to rock the boat or offend anyone. Enough is enough.
