So, the picture posted above is the correct one that I have but the name is different. Mine is called The Perfect Protector SPF 50+ SynchroShield. It is the dark blue bottle with WetForce x HeatForce. I think the description above is for the light blue bottle which is different and specifically for sensitive skin and children (the claims above don't match the bottle/packet claims)?? Anyway!!.. moving on to the review.. This sunscreen feels like velvet..it glides over your skin so nicely and I've never had a sunscreen look as invisible as this one, absolutely no greasy look on my face (which is great for me as my skin type is already susceptible to looking/getting oily.) I can't comment on the claims the brand have made about "Wetforce technology" as I don't actually know what that is and I haven't been swimming or gotten very sweaty while using this. The smell isn't bad or overpowering but there is a fragrance (which lead me to realise the description is incorrect as it states it's fragrance-free but I notice a nice scent when using it so I looked at ingredients on my packet and it has the words "fragrance" and "parfum".) It is on the expensive side, but it feels so nice and doesn't clog my skin or make it greasy or look white-cast so I'm likely to buy this again (just for use on my face).

Tips: Thin texture. Give it a shake first.
I LOVE this facial sunscreen! I actually got it in a beauty box last christmas and loved it so much I purchased more. It's silky smooth, smells great, and so non greasy you don't even feel like you're wearing sunscreen! Absolutely worth the price
Tips: Shake the bottle! It comes out super thin looking but gives great coverage, you don't need too much.
I recieved this in last year's Christmas Best Beauty Box Ever. This sunscreen has a very thin, watery consistency which surprised me. The applicator nozzle makes it easy to dispense the product with control over the amount. The packaging design is great in function and appearance. It seems to have a perfecting effect to my skin somehow, my skin felt smoother and looked really good! It has a bit of a mattifying effect but not drying at all. It's a high SPF and on my skin (tan olive), I didn't notice any visible white cast which is great! I would rather it didn't have fragrance added; I don't see the point as it still smells like sunscreen to me and I can be sensitive to fragrances. The price would be the only thing that might stop me repurchasing. Overall, I love this sunscreen and highly recommend it!
Tips: Make sure you shake the bottle well each time you use it. When you shake it, there is a change in the watery sound once the sunscreen has been shaken enough. Use a light hand when dispensing the sunscreen and you can easily control the amount that comes out.
I love that this is lightweight and blends easily but unfortunately on my skin it does leave a slight white/grey cast. Personally I don't mind if I'm using this before going out for a walk or outside as it does have a high SPF but if I'm going to be seen by people I wouldn't reach for this one. Also for the price (around $60) it is quite expensive.
Tips: It's a thin liquid consistency so be sure to shake well and be careful when squeezing out the product.
I received this in the CBBBE in time for summer. The consistency is very thin but applies well, it's almost like applying moisturizer and you don't feel like you're wearing sunscreen. It made my skin feel smooth. I have another brand of sunscreen which I prefer to use on my body but this is so nice for your face and at the price point I'd rather just use it for that.
Tips: If in your budget it's worthwhile giving it a go. Also shake the bottle to mix the ingredients.
I recieved this in last year's Christmas Best Beauty Box Ever and it is my new ultimate favorite facial sunscreen. I was using Biore UV watery essence as I'm currently obsessed with Japanese and Korean beauty products at the moment and although I enjoyed it, it smells like it has a high alcohol content and over time became very drying to my skin. This product comes in a cute little blue bottle and the nozzle makes it easy to apply to the fingers then face. My skin feels so smooth and non greasy and like Biore it is also mattifying. It smells delicious and a little goes a long way. But the most important attribute I need in a sunscreen is one that I don't react to! I don't know if there is anyone else like me who will apply facial sunscreen and you either 1. Come out in a freaky rash or 2. The product starts melting into your eyeballs throughout the day which results in a frantic trip to the bathroom to soak your stinging watery cryballs. If this is you invest in this sunscreen. You won't regret it! I know it is expensive but if you can find a good sunscreen that doesn't cause pain or a freak reaction it is 100% worth it!!
Tips: Shake well before application to ensure ingredients are well mixed. You only need a small amount as the product is quite thin and distributes well. Also makes a great base/primer for makeup.
Received in CBBBE and was excited to see it. I rarely purchase luxury products and this is season appropriate, so very handy. Attractive blue 50ml bottle. Curvy shape, screw top lid. First impressions the formula is quite liquidy. Unexpected but does make for a very lightweight application. Also very perfumed for a sunscreen product. Not very found on that as I do use this on my face.
Tested this out at the beach today and it worked amazingly. Applied before swimming and after swimming. No burns. The colour makes it easy to find and due to the compact size is very portable in your bag or glove box.
Overall, I actually really like and would recommend this product if you can afford it. Did online search for general cost and have seen it for $81.
Tips: Remember to shake before use.
this product makes me want to use sunscreen on a regular basis! it's so gorgeous.
i love the shape of the container, its quirky and cute and fits in my hand nicely. i also quite like the color, as its nice and bright and is different to all the boring white or brown i have.
the product itself is... wow. thin consistency yet it applies like it's thick. rubs in super easily and even better it does not feel like its still on the skin like a lot of sunscreens do. also i feel like it makes my skin look... i dunno. brighter? healthier? happier? maybe i'm crazy.
smells fantastic and makes me want to keep using it. have used it without issue on the squids skin too and she has no complaints other than when i drag her saturated backside back in the house.
repurchase? definitely.
this sun cream is super light ,controls the oil for a day ,gentle on skin ,wont cause brakouts as well
