Struggling with sunscreens that feel heavy, greasy, or leave a ghostly white cast? This ultralight serum formula feels more like a hydrating skincare step than a traditional sunscreen, making daily protection effortless and enjoyable.

• What it is: A broad-spectrum chemical sunscreen with a lightweight, watery serum texture.
• Key Benefits: Provides high UV protection (SPF 50+ PA++++) without stickiness or a white cast. Deeply hydrates the skin with a unique Hyalu-Cica formula, leaving a dewy, glowing finish.
• Who it's for: Ideal for all skin types, especially those with dry, dehydrated, or sensitive skin who want sun protection that feels comfortable and nourishing. It is a perfect choice for anyone who dislikes the feel of conventional sunscreens.

1. Cleanser (AM): Start with a clean face.
2. THIS PRODUCT: Apply a generous amount (two full finger lengths) to your face and neck as the final step of your morning routine.
3. Moisturiser (PM): At night, after cleansing, apply your regular moisturiser. This sunscreen is for daytime use only.

Mindful Consumption Note: If you already own a sunscreen, finish it before opening this one to prevent waste. This product can often replace your morning moisturiser, simplifying your routine.

Use this sunscreen as the final step of your skincare routine, before makeup.

• Minimalist Routine (2-3 steps): 1) Cleanser → 2) [THIS PRODUCT] → 3) Makeup (optional).
• Expanded Routine (4+ steps): 1) Cleanser → 2) Toner/Essence → 3) Targeted Serum (e.g., Vitamin C) → 4) [THIS PRODUCT] → 5) Makeup (optional).

Mauritius Tip: On hot and humid days, this sun serum is often hydrating enough to replace your regular morning moisturiser, especially for normal, combination, or oily skin types.

Wait Times: Allow your previous skincare steps to absorb for about 30-60 seconds before applying the sun serum. Wait 1-2 minutes for the sunscreen to set before applying makeup to prevent pilling.

Sunscreen is for daytime use only. Do not use this product in your evening routine.

• Minimalist PM Routine: 1) Double Cleanse (Oil Cleanser like SKIN1004's Light Cleansing Oil, then a Water-Based Cleanser) to remove sunscreen and impurities → 2) Moisturiser.
• Expanded PM Routine: 1) Double Cleanse → 2) Toner/Essence → 3) Treatment Serum (e.g., for exfoliation or anti-aging) → 4) Moisturiser/Sleeping Pack.

• Amount: Use the "two-finger" rule. Squeeze the product onto your index and middle fingers from base to tip. This is the approximate amount needed for your face and neck for full protection.
• Frequency: Apply once every morning, 15-20 minutes before sun exposure.
• Method: Apply generously and evenly over your face, neck, and any other exposed areas. Pat gently to aid absorption.
• Reapplication: Reapply every 2-3 hours when in direct sun, or after swimming, sweating heavily, or towel drying.

If-This / Then-That:

• If your skin is very oily: The dewy finish might feel too glowy. You can apply a light translucent powder over top to mattify the shine.
• If your skin is very dry: You may wish to apply a light moisturiser before this sun serum for extra comfort, especially on drier days or in air-conditioned environments.
• If you are wearing makeup: Wait 1-2 minutes for the sunscreen to set completely before applying your primer or foundation. This helps prevent pilling.

This sunscreen should be a non-negotiable part of your daily morning routine.

• Daily Use: Apply this product every single morning, regardless of the weather or if you are staying indoors. UV rays can penetrate clouds and windows.

AM/PM Cheat-Sheet (General Active Rules):

• Vitamin C: Use in the AM before this sunscreen to boost antioxidant protection.
• Niacinamide: Can be used AM or PM.
• Acids (AHA/BHA/PHA): Use in the PM, 1-3 times per week. Do not use on the same night as retinoids.
• Retinoids (Retinol/Retinal): Use in the PM only, 2-4 times per week on non-consecutive nights.

Safety: Consistent daily use of this sunscreen is crucial to protect your skin, especially when using exfoliating acids or retinoids, which increase photosensitivity.

• Immediately: Skin feels hydrated, soothed, and looks dewy with a healthy glow. There is no white cast or greasy residue.
• Within 2-4 weeks: With daily use, you may notice your skin feels consistently more hydrated and less prone to irritation or redness, thanks to the Hyalu-Cica formula.
• Within 8+ weeks: Consistent, long-term use is a preventative measure. You are actively protecting your skin from developing new sun spots, premature wrinkles, and other signs of photoaging. The benefits are cumulative and become more apparent over years.

Why use a dedicated sunscreen, not just makeup with SPF?

• The Myth: "My foundation has SPF 15, so I'm protected."
• The Reality: To get the stated SPF from makeup, you would need to apply a very thick, heavy layer—far more than anyone typically wears. A dedicated, lab-tested sunscreen like this one, applied using the two-finger rule, ensures you get the full, reliable SPF 50+ protection your skin needs in a sunny climate like Mauritius. Makeup with SPF is great for a little extra protection or touch-ups, but it should not be your primary defense against the sun.

• Works Well With: This sunscreen is designed to be the final step of your AM skincare routine and layers well over most ingredients.
  • Vitamin C: Highly recommended. Applying an antioxidant serum like Vitamin C before your sunscreen creates a powerful defense against both UV rays and environmental free radicals.
  • Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, Peptides: All are compatible and can be used in your routine before applying this sun serum.
• Use Carefully With:
  • Heavy, oil-based creams: Applying this lightweight serum over a very thick, occlusive oil or cream might cause pilling or affect absorption. If you have very dry skin, use a moderately rich cream and allow it to fully absorb before applying sunscreen.
• How to Layer: Always apply as the very last step of your skincare routine in the morning, before any makeup.

• Dry/Dehydrated Skin: Excellent. The hydrating formula provides a moisture boost and leaves a comfortable, dewy finish.
• Sensitive Skin: Excellent. Formulated with soothing Centella Asiatica and free from artificial fragrances and essential oils, it is designed to be gentle on reactive skin.
• Normal/Combination Skin: Excellent. The lightweight texture provides balanced hydration without feeling heavy on oilier zones like the T-zone.
• Oily Skin: Good. While the texture is non-greasy and lightweight, the finish is very dewy and glowing. If you prefer a matte look, this might feel too shiny for you. Consider setting with a translucent powder or opting for a matte-finish sunscreen.
• Acne-Prone Skin: Generally suitable. It is non-comedogenic and contains soothing ingredients. However, individual responses vary, so a patch test is recommended.

• Broad-Spectrum Sun Protection: Protects skin from both UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays to prevent sunburn, photoaging, and sun spots.
• Dehydration and Dryness: The "Hyalu-Cica" formula provides a powerful dose of hydration, leaving skin feeling plump, comfortable, and moisturised throughout the day.
• Redness and Sensitivity: Madagascar Centella Asiatica extract helps to calm inflammation and soothe irritated skin, making it an ideal sunscreen for sensitive types.
• Preventing Premature Aging: By providing high-level, consistent UV protection, this sun serum is one of the most effective tools for preventing fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of elasticity caused by sun damage.

• Official Korean Name: 스킨1004 마다가스카르 센텔라 히알루-시카 워터-핏 선 세럼 (SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum)

Patch Test Protocol:

1. Apply a pea-sized amount of the sun serum to a small, clean area of skin, such as behind your ear or on your inner jawline.
2. Wait 24 hours to observe any reaction. Check again at 48 and 72 hours for any delayed sensitivity.
3. If you experience any redness, itching, burning, or rash, discontinue use.

Safety Precautions:

• For external use only.
• Avoid direct contact with eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Do not apply to broken or irritated skin.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• For children and teens, this product is generally safe, but adult supervision is advised. The core routine for teens should be cleanser, moisturiser, and daily sunscreen.

• Texture: An ultralight, watery serum-lotion that spreads effortlessly across the skin.
• Finish: Leaves a hydrated, dewy, and radiant glow. It is not matte, but also not greasy or oily.
• Scent: Odourless. Formulated without any fragrance.
• pH: Not publicly disclosed by the brand, but sunscreen formulations are typically balanced around a neutral pH for filter stability and skin comfort.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: This product contains Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate and Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate, which can be potential triggers for those with Malassezia folliculitis. A patch test is strongly advised if you are prone to fungal acne. Individual responses vary.

• Issue: Product is pilling (rolling up into little balls).
  • Cause: This usually happens from applying too much product, not waiting long enough between skincare layers, or incompatibility with a product underneath (often silicone-heavy primers or moisturisers).
  • Solution: Use a slightly smaller amount and ensure each preceding skincare layer is fully absorbed (wait 1-2 minutes) before applying the sunscreen. Gently pat the sunscreen on instead of rubbing vigorously.
• Issue: The finish is too dewy/shiny for my oily skin.
  • Cause: This sun serum is formulated to give a radiant, glowing finish.
  • Solution: Apply a light dusting of translucent or mattifying powder over the T-zone after the sunscreen has set. Alternatively, consider a sunscreen with a matte finish.
• Issue: My skin feels a bit tight after a few hours.
  • Cause: While hydrating, it may not be occlusive enough for very dry skin, especially in air-conditioned environments.
  • Solution: Apply a thin layer of your favourite moisturiser before applying the sun serum.

This sun serum is exceptionally well-suited for the hot, humid climate of Mauritius.

• Humid Summers: The lightweight, non-sticky formula feels comfortable on the skin without the heavy, suffocating feeling of traditional sunscreens. For many, it's hydrating enough to be used as a combination moisturiser and sunscreen in the morning.
• Drier Winters/AC Environments: The hydrating properties help combat the drying effects of "winter" air or constant air conditioning, keeping the skin barrier healthy and preventing dehydration.

• Daily Protection: Given Mauritius's high UV index year-round, the SPF 50+ PA++++ rating provides essential daily protection against photoaging and hyperpigmentation. [cite: 2810, 2812]

• Sustainability: The plastic bottle (HDPE) and pump are recyclable in Mauritius where facilities exist. Please rinse the container before recycling.

Aggregated sentiment from real users on platforms like Reddit's r/AsianBeauty. This is anecdotal and not a substitute for a patch test.

• The Positive: Overwhelmingly positive reviews praise its "incredibly lightweight, serum-like texture" that "sinks in beautifully without any stickiness." Many users with dry and sensitive skin call it their "holy grail" for its hydrating and soothing properties. "It feels like I'm just applying a nice moisturiser. No white cast whatsoever on my brown skin," one Reddit review noted (2024-05).
• The Finish: Users consistently describe the finish as "dewy," "glowy," and "radiant." It is highly praised for giving a healthy, hydrated look to the skin. "If you love glass skin, this is the sunscreen for you," mentioned another user (2024-03).
• The Fair Caveat: For those with very oily skin, the dewy finish can be a downside. A recurring comment is, "I have oily skin and this made me look a bit too shiny by midday. It's not greasy, just very glowy. I have to use powder on top." (Reddit, r/AsianBeauty, 2024-04).

Can I use this instead of a moisturiser?

Yes, many people with normal, combination, or oily skin find this sun serum hydrating enough to use as their sole morning moisturiser. If you have very dry skin, you may prefer to layer a light moisturiser underneath.

Will this leave a white cast on my dark skin?

No. This is a chemical sunscreen formulated with modern UV filters that absorb invisibly into the skin, leaving zero white or grey cast on all skin tones.

Is this sunscreen sticky or greasy?

No. Its primary feature is its incredibly lightweight, non-sticky, and non-greasy texture. It feels like a hydrating serum.

Is it safe for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

It is formulated to be very gentle, with soothing ingredients like Centella Asiatica and no added fragrance, making it a great choice for sensitive skin. It is also non-comedogenic. However, as with any new product, a patch test is always recommended for reactive skin types.
