Shiseido Anessa Perfect UV Sunscreen Skincare Milk SPF50+ PA++++ 90ml

Texture: Thick when applied. There’s a subtle white cast but if you spread it evenly on your face, it will disappear.Effectiveness: It’s good! My face didn’t get very oily because of the sunscreen. Though there are areas in my face that have minimal oiliness (T-Zone Area) but it’s not that bad. This is perfect for oily skin who wants to have a good sunscreen that can last up to hrs.Fragrance: It has a little bit of smell but it’s fine naman.This Anessa sunscreen is a must for people with oily skin! It lasts up to 5hrs and it doesn’t oil too much. It feels thick when I applied it but once it’s settled on my skin, the feeling goes away. Overall, I am happy with my purchase.

Greasy at first - give it 5 minutes to turn matte

The 2022 version is watery and slippery meaning when applied, it feels a little slippery like silicone but if you let it settle, after 5 minutes it goes matte. The 2022 version isn't super matte, but a natural matte. I found it a little drying because my skin type is combo dry not oily but I do prefer matter sunscreens. When I put a non shiny moisturizer under then put this on, any shine is gone and I stay hydrated throughout the day. So far, I have yet to find something that beats this. From matte to shiny finish the order is: Anessa skincare milk 2024, Anessa skincare milk 2022/BOJ matte sunstick/Tocobo sunstick, Kose Suncut Milk 2024, haru haru air fit chemical sunscreen, Kose sun cut essence 2024, Purito daily soft touch, BOJ, haruharu mineral sunscreen, Isntree ... MoreThe 2022 version is watery and slippery meaning when applied, it feels a little slippery like silicone but if you let it settle, after 5 minutes it goes matte.

I reach for Anessa as my last step in my skincare routine when it's super humid and hot, with BOJ's matte sunstick when my t-zone is slick. Sometimes in the summer I still have to use a very light lotion under because when you reapply it can get drying (so this is great for oily skin types). For spring/fall/winter it's too drying for my skintype so I just balance it out with a heavier moisturizer under.

[Rewarded Review] Horrible - Possibly Fake or Defective?

Horrible! I have been buying this for years and it is not the same product. I don’t know if it’s defective, fake, or if they have changed their formulation but this is worse than any cheap/terrible sunscreen out there. It is super sticky and greasy and does not absorb at all over time. Your face remains a shiny sticky greaseball and you cannot put any makeup on over it and you look terrible even an hour later. It just sits on your skin. I had to scrub it off of my hands. I absolutely loved this product so I do not know what happened here, but this one is beyond awful.
