REVIEW: DEAR, KLAIRS ALL-DAY AIRY SUNSCREEN

The All-day Airy Sunscreen is a mild but powerful daily sunscreen. A truly weightless formula that isn’t sticky or greasy. It has proven its strong UV protection ability through 3 clinical trials, and we lessened ingredients that can cause skin irritation while adding more soothing ingredients, making it easy to use even on sensitive skin.

​MY THOUGHTS ON PRODUCT PERFORMANCE

Klairs All-day Airy Sunscreen is a new product from the brand, a mild but powerful daily sunscreen with SPF 50+ PA++++ fully protect your skim against harmful UV rays. It appears creamy when coming out of the tube, has a lightweight texture, absorbs well into the skin and leaves no white cast or residue behind. Using advanced technology and on irritating ingredients, Klairs developed this moisturized sunscreen with no fragrance and smooth finish on the skin. I use this sunscreen as a last step of my morning skincare routine. I apply a generous amount on my face at least 30 minutes before heading outside. I use sunscreen daily for full skin protection, as UV rays can still penetrate through our skin on cloudy and rainy days or indoor through glass. I re-apply after 3 hours throughout the day, and especially on those days that I know that I would have prolonged sun exposure. My skin didn't have any irritations or reactions while using. On first application, I could feel some sort of cooling sensation which is very comfortable to use. For first time user always patch test first for 24 hours to see for any skin reactions. I have all sort of different sunscreen, this sunscreen has been added to my collection, it's hydrating, soothing, lightweight and doesn't leave any white cast, well absorbs into the skin.
