mixsoon Bean Sunscreen SPF 50 is my latest sunscreen obsession. I am a big fan of the K-Beauty brand, mixsoon, and I am also quite enthusiastic about high quality, high SPF sunscreens. Therefore, this sunscreen is of particular interest to me.

This sunscreen is not only very lightweight, but it also boasts a lovely creamy texture and an SPF 50 to offer skin serious protection against harmful UVA and UVB rays. It is a chemical, rather than mineral, sunscreen and it neither leaves behind a white cast, nor is it greasy or sticky. Instead, it absorbs quickly is filled with skincare ingredients and it is moisturizing and nourishing. It applies smoothly, feels breathable on the skin, rather than heavy and unpleasant, and it leaves skin soft and radiant. It is fragrance-free, water-resistant and it doesn't interfere with makeup, and it does not pill.
