Review on Bioderma Mattifying Emulsion Photoderm AKN SPF 30, 40 ml by Aneta Stawarz ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not at all what I expected.

I have a very controversial relationship with AKN Mat. On the one hand, I don't like him on several counts. On the other hand, I haven’t found a better sunscreen yet. Therefore, you have to endure. Now in order. I do not like the packaging: it is flimsy, weak, the lid tries to open, and the product threatens to flood the entire cosmetic bag. This is especially annoying on vacation. The fragrance is calm for me personally, the nose does not irritate. The texture is too runny, like an emulsion. But at the same time, this whitish substance is terribly unevenly distributed, leaving white streaks on the face. It can freeze in the same form, causing frankly vulgar associations. When you sweat, whitish water will come off. As a base for make-up - so-so. The powder may not sit properly. I have combination and very sensitive skin, which AKN Mat does not matte at all. As for provoking a rash, it’s hard for me to say here: my skin is always more irritated in the summer (I can’t stand the heat), and it’s hard to single out a single factor. The pores may clog a little, but I did not notice the catastrophe. As for sun protection, it's hard to say: I never tan, and all my cosmetics have a high SPF. Gave this tool a chance to prove itself twice, and both on vacation. In the end, I smeared it on my legs, and began to cover my face with mineral powder with a high SPF. There was more sense. However, all other sunscreens gave even worse results, so nothing yet about the entire AKN Mat tested. But in the end, I still abandoned such textures and switched to mineral coverage with a very high SPF.

Pros
  • Does not cause new breakouts.
Cons
  • Poor quality packaging, uneven distribution, creates streaks.

Some pros: Excellent sunscreen for oily skin, does not clog pores, pleasant aroma, the face tans evenly with it. Cons: slightly whitens the skin, like all sunscreens.
