SOME BY MI Sunscreen

Korean sunscreen from some by mi. The company's promise is that the cream is actually 3 in 1 - UV protection, can be used as a base for make-up, and that it lightens the skin and prevents wrinkles. It is more recommended for people with dry skin, and it is water resistant.

I decided to try it because of many recommendations about its green brother, another sunscreen from the company, which was not in stock.

This sunscreen is chemical. In addition to this, Korean sunscreens are controversial. They work in a slightly different way, they have different ingredients that filter radiation and they measure the level of protection in a different way, therefore they are not approved by the Israeli, American and Australian standards as radiation filters. On the other hand, some claim that the Koreans are more advanced than us in the world of cosmetics and sun protection and that the American, Australian and Israeli standards are simply not updated with the new technology. In any case, the day before he came to me I saw a post by someone who wrote that she was burned by his green brother, since then I trust the company less, and am afraid to put it on on days when the sun is too strong. I think I'll keep it aside until winter or give it away.

Another drawback that is hard for me to ignore is the smell. I'm not that sensitive to scents, I don't like to be put unnecessary fragrance in products, but this... just smells like an abandoned factory. It's unbearable and it doesn't go away too much either.

The cream is quite dense and already, you feel during the day that you have something on your face, an unpleasant feeling.

For those who care, the company *does* experiment on animals.

I will say for the better that it does not leave a noticeable white cast, only at the beginning, then it is absorbed and you can't see anything.

Update: The brand conducts animal testing 🐰💔
