Product Information
Full details
This SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum with SPF 50 is designed for individuals seeking daily sun protection that also hydrates and soothes the skin. Its key benefit is offering broad-spectrum SPF 50 defense in a lightweight, serum-like texture that absorbs quickly without a sticky feel. A minor caveat is that while formulated for hydration, very dry skin types might still prefer a richer moisturizer underneath. This sunscreen combines sun protection with skincare, featuring Hyaluronic Acid and Centella Asiatica Extract from Madagascar to calm and moisturize, alongside a Grain Complex for nourishment and radiance. It has completed skin irritation tests, making it suitable for sensitive skin.

FAQs
Is this sunscreen suitable for daily use?
Yes, the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum is specifically designed for daily use due to its lightweight texture and skincare benefits.
Does it leave a white cast?
No, this sun serum is formulated to be lightweight and absorb quickly, providing a sheer finish without a white cast.
Can I use this if I have sensitive skin?
Yes, it has completed skin irritation tests and is formulated with soothing ingredients like Centella Asiatica, making it suitable for sensitive skin types.
How much product should I use?
Apply an appropriate amount, roughly a generous fingertip amount for the face, and spread evenly. The goal is to cover all exposed areas adequately.
Is it waterproof or water-resistant?
The product description does not specify it as waterproof or water-resistant. For activities involving prolonged water exposure or heavy sweating, reapplication is recommended.
What are the main active ingredients for sun protection?
The primary active ingredients are chemical filters that provide Broad Spectrum SPF 50 protection. The exact filters are not listed in the provided information but are standard for SPF 50 classification.
How does this sunscreen compare to a regular moisturizer?
This sun serum combines the functions of a moisturizer (hydration, soothing) with high-level sun protection. While it adds moisture, it is primarily a sunscreen and may not replace a dedicated heavy moisturizer for very dry skin.
Troubleshooting
Product feels slightly sticky after application.
Allow a few extra minutes for the serum to fully absorb. Ensure you are not applying an excessively thick layer. If skin is extremely dry, consider applying a light moisturizer first.
Pilling when applying makeup over the sunscreen.
Ensure your previous skincare layers have fully absorbed before applying the sunscreen. Use a smaller amount of sunscreen or wait longer between product layers. Test a small area to see if pilling occurs.
Skin feels dry after prolonged wear.
While hydrating, this serum may not be sufficient for very dry skin. Try applying a hydrating serum or moisturizer underneath the sun serum, or consider reapplication during the day if needed.
Suspected loss of efficacy after opening.
Ensure the cap is always tightly sealed after use. Store in a cool, dark place. Sunscreens have a general lifespan; consider replacing after one year of opening, or if the texture or scent changes.
