This natural Sunscreen utilizes only natural preservative and herbal extract such as seven flowers and
witch hazel. It shields your skin against harmful UVA/UVB effectively without irritating and drying
your skin.
I received a sample size of Skylake Natural Herb Sunscreen from the Hebeloft promoter in OG some time back. I could no longer find this product on Hebeloft - a similar sun screen product is now known as Skylake Oriental Herb Natural Sunscreen.
Skylake is an all natural Korean skincare brand with products made from natural ingredients such as herbs. It was founded in Geochang inspired by its natural treasures that reaps many benefits for the skin which have since become the key ingredients of Skylake products.

Packaging, Scent and Texture
Skylake Natural Herb Sunscreen SPF 50+ PA+++ has a strong floral scent which smells lovely initially but lingers throughout the application on my face and started to get overwhelming.

While I like the lightweight creamy texture, however the scent was getting too much for me. There is an obvious white cast and some massage is required for it to be absorbed into the skin.
Performance and Ingredients
I enjoyed using Skylake Natural Herb Sunscreen SPF 50+ PA+++ as skin looked glowy and the white cast helped to minimize the redness on my skin. However, the overpowering scent is a strong deterrent.
According to the information found online, the sunscreen contains high SPF 50+ PA+++ which is much needed in humid Singapore. It uses the following 3 ingredients for both UVA and UVB protection.
