Kiehls Cross-Terrain UV Face Protector SPF 50 Texture
Overall Rating: ★★★★☆
Price: $$$ ($20-$30) – Available at Kiehl’s, Nordstrom, Grooming Lounge, and Bloomingdale’s.
Scent: No noticeable fragrance.
I liked: how easy it was to apply. This sunscreen won’t drip into the eyes like lotions can. The compact container and texture makes it convenient to travel with and carry without having to worry about spillage. The high SPF is ideal for adventure seekers and summer tourists alike.
I didn’t like: the texture at first. The solid wax-like consistency took some getting used to. However, once applied on the skin, the product absorbed quickly.
Kiehl’s Cross-Terrain UV Face Protector SPF 50 is an ideal sunscreen for anyone who is exposed to the Sun for an extended period of time. I had some doubts when I first saw the product – unlike most other sunscreens, the Cross-Terrain Face Protector has a solid texture. I wrongly assumed the wax-like consistency meant a heavier feeling on my face. My skin adapted quickly to the product. It felt no weightier than the face moisturizers I typically use. Don’t let the small size fool you – this stuff packs a protective punch and will last a while. Those with sensitive skin will appreciate the lack of a scent. Though this sunscreen is water and sweat resistant, I recommend reapplication after a swim or workout. Ingredients squalane and synthetic beeswax help to keep skin moisturized.
