Applicable skin types
Q: What skin types are suitable for use?
Answer:Dry skin: A variety of moisturizing ingredients, such as glycerin, are added to the product, which can replenish moisture for dry skin and form a moisturizing film on the skin surface to prevent moisture loss and keep the skin hydrated.
Oily skin: Although it is a moisturizing sunscreen product, its texture is relatively light and will not bring too much burden to oily skin. Moreover, good sunscreen effect can avoid abnormal oil secretion caused by ultraviolet rays and help maintain the normal oil balance of the skin.
Combination skin: It can meet the needs of different areas of combination skin. It provides moisturizing in dry cheeks and other parts, and can also fit the skin better in areas with more oil secretion such as T zone, without producing greasy feeling or aggravating oily shine.
Sensitive skin: The product formula is relatively mild and does not contain some common irritating ingredients. However, since everyone's sensitivity is different, people with sensitive skin are recommended to try it on a small area of skin before use to observe whether there is any discomfort.
