One thing I need to do more of is wear sunscreen. I've been horrible in the past about remembering to put it on, and I forget sometimes because it's just not something I think of. So when I was offered the opportunity to try out Tatcha Silken Pore Perfecting Sunscreeen with broad spectrum SPF 35, I jumped at the chance. I've been using it every morning before I take my daily walk.
This sunscreen is lightweight, non-greasy and invisible once it's applied. I'm always worried about having white patches on my skin when I put on sunscreen. Anyone else? haha I had no issues with that here, and it seems to soak in rather quickly, leaving behind no sticky feeling. I didn't notice an overwhelming scent, either, which is always a plus.
It is said on Tatcha's site that this would be perfect to use as a makeup primer, and I agree! It really leaves a smooth finish once it is applied, and while I didn't necessarily notice my pores appearing smaller, they were smooth. This sunscreen is for all skin types and does not contain mineral oil, aminobenzoic acid, homosalate, oxybenzone or octinoxate.
