Product Name:: Missha aqua sun gel
Sunscreen is by far the most important element of my daily skincare routine. Sun damage causes the vast majority of visible skin aging, including coarsening skin texture, deep wrinkles, blotchy pigmentation, and drastic loss of collagen and general elasticity. I’ve long said that the best way to prevent premature skin aging is by wearing sunscreen with high UVA and UVB protection in the recommended quantity every day. For these reasons, I’m very diligent and very picky about my sunscreens.
Purpose: Missha All Around Safe Block Aqua Sun Gel is an organic (“chemical”) sunscreen product with high UVA and UVB protection capabilities, meant for everyday use (as opposed to sport or in-water use).
Best suited for: Normal or oily skin without alcohol or fragrance sensitivities.
Do not use if: Your skin is prone to dryness or you are sensitive to alcohol, silicones, fragrance, or anything else in the ingredients list.
When and how to use: Apply as the last step in your morning skincare routine before makeup. Take a generous amount (1/4 tsp is the general recommendation, based on the dimensions of a large male face; I do a bit more than a nickel-sized amount of product, or three fingers’ length) and spread evenly over face. I highly suggest using my Three Fingers method, as seen in the IG video below, to achieve the smoothest and most even coverage. Let sunscreen set for 15 minutes before applying makeup.
