Missha Flash-Up Sun SPF50+ PA++++ 50ml

This came across my dash and I clicked on it and thought hey for 13 dollars I should give it a try! I looked over the ingredients and the one thing I feel it needs to be without is the perfume, since perfume is not regulated in the US or by US law is not required to list the ingredients of the perfume/fragrance, only the word “perfume” or “fragrance” and this is protected by law and US patent. If Missha really wants to stay relevant with the growing popularity in the beauty industry for fine ingredients and quality that say South Korea has as an example, it should be cutting pointless ingredients out like fragrance or perfume. We don’t care if it smells good, we want our face too look amazing. With all that said I’m still giving it a 5 start because it does exactly what it stated it does, protect your skin from the sun and give you an amazing dewy glow. The glow is better than most of my face products which surprised me. As soon as I tried it I quickly ordered two additional bottles and sent a mass link to everyone I know who loves beauty products.-my face reacts to several products (like products containing a lot of aloe), so far I have had no reaction and have applied it a total of three times-my face typically breaks out with any form of oil and my skin remains clear-my face has a dry/oily and extremely fair complexion, it does not make my skin feel more oily or more dryThis sunscreen makes my face feel plump and moisturized even, and although it looks as though there is some sort of sheen from product sitting in my face, I don’t feel it. I’m hoping that this product maintains its standard, this is the best sunscreen I’ve ever used and if it came in a LARGE body size I would happily much pay more for that (hint hint, summers coming!!)I want to take a photo, but the before and after of my face looked exactly like the shown photos in the discription.

I've really been trying to get into skin care/protection more and had been using neutragena's 50+ sunscreen. It was okay but smelled and applied like most tradition sunscreens, would leave me with a white cast and if it got in my eyes, OH MY GOD, it would burn so bad.But I saw a couple people on YouTube talking about Korean sunscreen and saw this specific product a few times until finally deciding to try it out. And I'm so happy I did!!It's the best sunscreen I've ever tried. It's thinner, applies like a dream and leaves me with a beautiful glowy finish. On myself I don't think it looks too oily or greasy at all. I feel like I look refreshed and glowy. When I first apply it it does have a bit of a cast but quickly goes away after a few minutes. The picture above is about a minute after application. I have a medium skin tone that lightens up a bit in the winter. Also, I have combo skin that's oily at the tzone and normal/dry everywhere else depending on the season. I don't have sensitive skin and this has not broken me out at all.It has a pretty strong scent, but it's a clean type of scent so I don't mind it too much.Right now in the colder months it's been absolutely amazing. For the summer it may get too oily but until then I'm going to keep using it. Also, I normally spend very little time in the sun and don't intend on using this as protection from sunburns. I just wear it any time I leave my house to run errands or go to school. Always try to reapply your sunscreen every few hours as well!!

I only bought this because of the holo packaging, but this stuff is amazing! When I first applied it, I thought it was going to be too greasy and leave a white cast, but after I blended it in thoroughly the white cast dissipated and the greasiness started drying down to a beautiful, dewy yet velvety finish. It’s like MACs strobe cream, but with SPF and not as heavy feeling on the skin.The only downside to this SPF is that it has quite a heavy, perfumey fragrance, so I wouldn’t recommend this if you find fragrances irritating. Also, it looks like it contains a very slight, barely noticeable white pearlescent shimmer, so if you have darker skin, you might not like this product. My skin is light so I can’t really tell if there’s a white cast after blending it.

The only gripe I have about this product is that there is a scent. It's very light, but I would much prefer anything I put on my face to be unscented. Aside from that, this product is fantastic! It's a thick, but light feeling cream that does a wonderful job at sun protection as it has the highest available, moisturizing and as a makeup primer. It leaves your skin so dewy and glowing. It's a perfect step if you're going for the glass skin look. If you have dry skin, I think you would love it! As for oily skin, I'm not sure. It does not make my face oily, but I have dry skin. This is my first Korean sunscreen, and I'm downright amazed at how far ahead their technology is! There are so many that are aimed at oily skin, so if you don't want to try this one, I'd do some research and get yourself a Korean sunscreen, like, yesterday!!

I LOVE this sunscreen! I've been looking for something exactly like MAC Strobe Cream but with SPF and I have finally found it! The scent is fantastic and fresh. It doesnt leave a white cast. It does leave a slight highlight effect, but not overly glittery. So far, I've had it for 2 days and have used it alone and I've used it on top of a full coverage powder. Yes, you read that right. Try it. You might like it! I love the coverage of my Too Faced powder and this sunscreen gives me that dewy look and retains the light coverage of my powder. Anyways, I'm a huge fan of this already and wish I could get it in a huge, full body sized bottle.

Nice packaging, I like the holographic tube it’s very fitting for the name. I was hoping this would feel less like a typical sunscreen and more like a moisturizer. It looks a little greasy if applied by itself; however, under makeup it doesn’t look greasy or oily at all. Unfortunately, nothing much about this sunscreen stood out to make me want to purchase again.
