Hello guys! Today I'm gonna share a review about the most expensive sunscreen that I've ever tried.

Ingredients

I found some ginseng ingredients, various of root extract, honey and little bit alcohol. Glad to know this product doesn't contains mineral oil, and paraben.

Color, Scent & Texture

This sunscreen has milky white colored-cream. It smells quite pleasant, and I believe it's a ginseng scent :D It has thick texture but still easy to be spread and blended onto skin.

Performance

I have been using this sunscreen for weeks and gladly it doesn't breaks out my skin ^.^ I often use this at the morning and it doesn't cause blackheads nor trigger sebum on my skin. Though they claim this sunscreen isn't sticky, to be honest I think IT IS quite sticky and I have to add layer of face powder to make my skin shine-free and less sticky. So far I'm quite loving this sunscreen but I don't think I will repurchase it again, it's out of my budget :p LOL

Anyway, sorry I don't notice if it has brightened my skin or not ._.
