MISSHA All Around Safe Block Soft Finish Sun Milk SPF50 Review
Today, I’m sharing my review of the MISSHA All Around Safe Block Soft Finish Sun Milk SPF50, another Korean sunscreen I’ve had the chance to try. Let’s see what it’s all about and if it’s worth trying.
The MISSHA All Around Safe Block Soft Finish Sun Milk SPF50 combines chemical and mineral filters: ethylhexyl salicylate (also known as octisalate, which protects against UVB rays), bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (also known as Tinosorb S, which covers the entire UVB and UVA range), ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate (also known as octinoxate, which helps protect the skin against UVB rays), diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate (also known as Uvinul A Plus, which protects the skin against UVA rays), titanium dioxide (which mainly protects the skin from UVA II rays), and zinc oxide (which protects against UVB, UVA II, and UVA I).
A blend of guava leaf extract, desert sand verbena extract, aloe extract, red cinchona bark extract, Amur rose extract, glycerin, and lecithin hydrate and soften the skin. Aloe extract and immortelle extract soothe the skin, while a blend of Rhodiola Rosea extract, Amur rose extract, and vitamin E provides antioxidant protection.
The MISSHA All Around Safe Block Soft Finish Sun Milk SPF50 has a lightweight, almost liquid, milky texture. It spreads easily and doesn’t leave any greasy residue on the skin, giving a lovely matte finish. It helps to minimise pores and even out skin tone, leaving the skin looking bright and flawless. However, it does leave a slight whitish-pink cast, which may not suit everyone.
It has a powdery floral scent that I find quite intense, but it fades quickly.
As for the downsides, I should mention that the MISSHA All Around Safe Block Soft Finish Sun Milk SPF50+ can pill, depending on the skincare products layered underneath or the makeup applied on top. Additionally, with daily use, it can dry out my skin slightly and accentuate any dry, flaky patches. For this reason, I don’t think it’s the best option for dry skin.
For reference, I have combination skin that tends to break out during warmer months and around my period. This product doesn’t cause any breakouts and never irritates my skin, though it does make my eyes sting slightly.
To sum it up, I have mixed feelings about the MISSHA All Around Safe Block Soft Finish Sun Milk SPF50. It’s not the worst sunscreen I’ve ever tried, but it doesn’t check all the boxes for me, so I doubt I’ll repurchase it in the future.
WHERE TO SHOP:
Hi Mary! Thanks for the review. I’ve tried this one, and it does leave a bit of a white cast. Overall, not a bad sunscreen, but I doubt I’d repurchase it either.
