I think a lot of you guys are waiting for this sunscreen review!ย Round lab was one brand that handled the whole Korean sunscreen controversy very well, issued refunds right away, and was very transparent throughout the whole process.ย I applaud them for that and would be a brand I will support in the future.ย After their first generation of this birch juice sunscreen was proven to not have SPF 50+, this is the renewed Round lab birch juice moisturizing sun cream.ย Will this version be hydrating enough for my dry, sad skin?ย Let’s found out!

Texture/ Finish, white cast?:
This sunscreen has the most dreamy, lightweight, gel-like texture that feels more like an essence than a sunscreen.ย It is effortless, lightweight, and gives the skin the most gorgeous, healthy dewy finish without looking oily or heavy.
This is a chemical sunscreen, but it doesn’t make my skin irritated in any way and is easy to reapply throughout the day!
No white cast here either!ย The texture and hydration level really reminds me of the old Purito Centella sunscreen.ย It is just so comfortable on the skin and I don’t have to remember to heavily moisturize my skin beforehand either.

Pro:
-super lightweight

Overall thoughts:
Okay, this Round lab birch juice moisturizing sun cream is easily another favourite to add to my sunscreen list.ย It is so hydrating yet lightweight and has absolutely no white cast.ย There was also no irritation after hours of wear, something which I was struggling with for quite a while.ย Overall I’m very happy with this sunscreen and definitely recommend it to everyone!ย I even think this might work for oily skin types, but if you are oily skin type and have tried this sunscreen out, let me know what you think!ย All skin types will be able to use this as well.ย FINALLY, we have a replacement for the void that has been left in my soul after Purito’s Centella sunscreen was taken off the market.
