Hey guys,
I hope you are all having a great day. Today I am going to review another product that is free of harsh chemicals like parabens. Ever since I had started my blog I am more into chemical and cruelty-free products. I had avoided products that do more harm to our skin than any good. Sunscreen is one of the products that we take very lightly and we skip them or we use the one which has more harsh chemicals. I already have facewash and moisturizer from the same brand which is chemical-free. I went ahead and purchased sunscreen from the same brand without any thought. I am going to share my experience with this product now with you guys.
Packaging
The Aroma Magic aloe vera sunscreen gel comes in a tube form which has a tight lid packaging. I can't say it is travel friendly as it is quite bulky however you can transfer the product in a small tin or tube for traveling. The outer packaging has a green tube with quirky designs that are quite fresh in the Indian market.
Product claims
I am 100% free of oxybenzone, paraben, harsh chemicals, alcohol and artificial fragrance. My all-mineral, gel formula creates a physical barrier between you and the sun. I am non-greasy, skin-friendly and enriched with wheatgerm, avocado, and grapeseed oils. they provide natural sun safety, Vitamin B5, C, E and prevent visible signs of aging. Notes of calendula, peppermint, and roman chamomile essential oils hydrate, soothe and reduce acne. The non-nano Zinc Oxide in me is a mineral reflector found in the nature that scatters harmful rays. Aloe Vera extracts hydrate, purify and provide smart sun protection.
HOW TO USE. Knead the tube with your hands and give a good shake as natural ingredients tend to separate. Apply me generously 15 minutes before sun exposure for desired protection. Use 1/2 tsp. to protect your face and 1 tbsp. to cover skin from head to toe. I am a perfect complement to your daily makeup routine too.
CAUTION Reapply every 90 minutes and every 30 minutes if you are doing anything active, that's causing you to work up a sweat and always after swimming.
The product also claims to suit oily and acne-prone skin and also has UVA/UVB protection with SPF 20. It also claims to hydrate the skin and is an all-natural mineral line.
Ingredients
Purified water, Organic Beeswax, Aloe Barbadensis Gel, Zinc Oxide, Persea Gratissima Oil, Vegetable Glycerin, Triticum Vulgare Germ Oil, Calendula Officinalis Essential Oil, Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil, Ascorbic acid, Anthemis Nobilis Essential Oil, Mentha Piperita Essential Oil, Sodium Riboflavin Phosphate, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Panthenol.
Price
285 INR for 100 ml. I got the sunscreen for around 200 INR after a discount. Both in Amazon and Nykaa you can get the product in a discounted amount.
Texture
The Aroma Magic aloe vera sunscreen gel has a gel-like texture as it claims. Usually, the products with gel texture would suit oily and acne-prone skin as it won't be sticky and will have a semi-matte finish.
My experience
The product has a gel texture and is non-sticky as it claims so I was really happy with the texture of the product. It had the perfect transparent gel consistency which is not runny but not too stiff. So it does hydrate the skin a bit as it claims and also gives a matte texture for the skin controlling the oil from the skin for 3-4 hours. I applied the sunscreen after the moisturizer which is also an oil control moisturizer. I had used aroma magic juniper berry oil-free moisturizer beneath the sunscreen gel on my face. It has a very mild floral smell which is not overpowering, you would find the smell only if you sniff the gel as it is very mild. It doesn't give a white cast which most of the sunscreens give that is really annoying.
Pros
Mild fragrance.
Non-sticky gel consistency.
Semi-matte finish if you use with oil-control moisturizer.
No harsh chemicals.
Budget-friendly compared to other products in the market.
Cons
Not travel-friendly.
Availability.
Will I buy again?
Of course yes. Looking at the pros of this product I would really like to buy once the tube gets over.
I hope this review was helpful for all the women who have oily and acne-prone skin. It is my pleasure to review all these helpful chemical-free products for you guys. Have a wonderful day ahead guys and keep smiling.
