Not so elegant when you use the correct amount
To get the SPF protection on the label, you need to apply 1/4 teaspoon of the product to your face and another 1/4 teaspoon for your neck (this is the approximate amount used when products are tested to give them an SPF rating). Unfortunately most companies don't tell us this, however a search of the internet confirms it on many sites, including government ones. On to the review.... I purchased this product hoping it would be good as a lightweight moisturiser/sunscreen for summer days when I'm not in the sun for long. However, when using the correct amount (which equates to around 7 pumps for your face and neck) it is far too greasy and not cosmetically elegant. It is great as a general moisturiser though, but not for adequate UV protection. Ladies, if you're relying upon this for UV protection and you're only using a small amount, you're not protecting yourself at all. Please don't risk your skin and if you don't believe me, search the internet and become an informed consumer!!
