Revainrating 5 out of 5

Sorry, Thy Name Is Soft Finish

To say my skin hates this product would be an understatement. I honestly don't know what I was thinking when I got this, I usually pay more attention to the ingredients in my products but that's what I get when I shop online at 3am. Ingredients: (box is awfully hard to read) Water, Cyclopentasiloxane, Silicon Dioxide, Zinc Oxide, Dipropylene Glycol, Butylene Glycol, PEG-10 Lauryl Tris[trimethylsiloxy]silylethyldimethicone, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Caprylyl Methicone, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Isopropyl Palmitate, Titanium Dioxide ( Ci 77891), Denate Alcohol, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Helichrysum Arenarium Extract, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, Magnesium Sulfate, Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Dimethicone, Diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexylbenzoate, Quaternium-18-Bentonite, Aluminum Hydroxide, Stearic Acid, Glycerin, Hydrogen Dimethicone, Phenoxyethanol , Aroma, dimethyl sililate silica, sodium benzoate, tocopheryl acetate, disodium EDTA, potassium sorbate, caprylyl glycol, polyhydroxystearic acid, isostearic acid, isostearic acid. Propyl Myristate, Lecithin, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Polyglyceryl-3-polyricinoleate, Ci 77492, Limonia Acidissima Extract, Ci 77491, Vp/Hexadecene Copolymer, Acrylates/Dimethicone Copolymer, Biosaccharide Gum-4, Rose Bud Extract, Cinchona Bark Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Hairy Abronia Leaf Extract, Guava Psidium Leaf Extract, Rhodiola Rosea Root Extract (if I'm missing something, forgive my eyes). Dimethicone, Caprylyl Methicone, Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Dimethicone, Hydrogen Dimethicone, Acrylates/Dimethicone Copolymer PEG: Lauryl PEG-10 Tris[trimethylsiloxy] Silylethyl Dimethicone Fragrance Environmental pollutants: Marine pollutants (UV filters): Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate (1-7- 7 -8) ) Bad for Sensitive Skin: Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Alcohol Denat, Fragrance. Bad for Acne Prone Skin: Stearic Acid, Isopropyl Myristate, Ethylhexyl Palmitate I have 35 oily combination skin, I'm Sicilian with pink undertones. I was expecting a bit of dryness as this is a matte sunscreen with a powdery finish but oh my god I haven't put anything this uncomfortable on my skin in a long time. I just received the product and was immediately dissatisfied when I applied it in the morning. A pea-sized amount (enough to cover a finger) is recommended for the face, but is NOT compatible with other moisturizers. Because it's meant to be applied over a daily moisturizer, it's problematic at first. I don't want to worry about my sunscreen ruining my skincare routine. Yesterday my face looked dry and just unhealthy with Soft Finish. I wanted the reviews to look outstanding. I don't like a lot of sunscreen with my oily skin and wanted a softer finish, but this just sucked all the oil and moisture out of my face with a ferocity I wasn't prepared for. This morning I went back to my routine. I put sunscreen on and after about an hour my face is on BURNING. I look in the mirror, my face is red and scaly and it looks like I just got a chemical peel. I immediately washed my face, and my skin became hot, tender, and miserable. I will not recommend this product.

Pros
  • Face Sunscreen
Cons
  • I won't say anything
