I have not been using Dermalogica products for a long while, after they tweaked the formulae of their sensitive range. It did not resonate well with my skin so I stopped using it completely. Dermalogica used to be my top favourite brand and I rave highly of them but unfortunately, the more they change their formula, the more disappointed I am, with their products. The same, goes for Dermalogica Super Sensitive Shield SPF 30 which has replaced my favouite Super Sensitive Faceblock SPF30.
I signed up with Aster Spring ( previously known as Leonard Drake ) recently and received a $120 voucher to redeem a product. I chose Dermalogica Super Sensitive Shield SPF 30 after using up Dr. GL Sun Protection SPF 30 and was looking for a sunscreen product then.
Dermalogica Super Sensitive Shield SPF 30 can also be used as a daily moisturiser but I use it strictly as a sunscreen after my moisturiser. The contents are kept in a slightly soft pliable bottle which can be depressed slightly, but there is hardly a need to do so, since the white milky fluid ooze out easily from the tiny opening.
Containing both Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide, Dermalogica Super Sensitive Shield SPF 30 provides broad-spectrum protection which is essential in our humid Singapore. The sunscreen fluid applies effortlessly but is sticky on skin making it tacky under the weather. I totally dislike any sunscreen with sticky texture because I end up with sticky hands and face and the tackiness continued until you wash it off.
The previous formula, Super Sensitive Faceblock SPF30 is never tacky so I am sorely disappointed that this does. However, if you look past the stickiness, Super Sensitive Shield SPF 30 is actually pretty easy to spread around on skin and is formulated without artificial fragrances and colours.
There is a slight sheen on the surface of skin, with a light white cast as well but is a minor issue, after I add on my usual BB cream and loose powder.
Looking at the ingredients, it contains several fragrant oils though I wonder why they are there, for a sunscreen product. Hence, it may not be suitable for those with sensitive and reactive skin.
The 30ml size retails for $110 in Aster Spring branches but you can make use of the occasional promotion that they have from time to time.
Active ingredients: Titanium Dioxide (7.0%) Zinc Oxide (9.0%).
