Camellia Deep Collagen Firming Sun Serum SPF 50.

"I was hesitant to try this one because I thought it would be too heavy on my skin, but once I started using it, my god, it is so lightweight while still adding a nice splash of hydration. It absorbs quickly while giving a nice plump, glowy, glass skin look without feeling too heavy. From an ingredient perspective it's definitely not the best of the best, the ingredients are fine and it's fragrance free, but nothing particularly stands out. Still, the experience alone is really nice, and I understand why it's so popular, it's a great sunscreen for someone who has combination to dry leaning skin."

"This is the Round Lab Camellia Sun Serum. I'm wearing it today underneath my Dr. Jart BB cream. Mine is almost empty, but I'm loving it and it's certainly one that I would repurchase in a heartbeat. My skin just feels like it has a little bit more of a glow when I use this one. It's a chemical sunscreen with five filters, Uvinul T 150, Mexoryl SX, Uvinul A Plus, Parsol SLX, and Tinosorb S, a great combination of UVB and UVA filters. It's also got urea, soluble collagen, and quercetin in it. It's wonderful, no scent to it. It's one of my favorite sunscreens lately."

"This has pretty much zero fragrance. It has no white cast as well, and it dries with a sort of glowy skin smoothing finish. This finish was the thing that I found most unique and impressive about this sunscreen. It says it uses ultrafine priming particles to fill in fine lines and blur to create a smooth looking skin, and that's definitely what I noticed. It just made my skin look really nice and smooth and plump. I think this is fantastic, especially if you're not planning to use foundation on top, if you're planning to go makeup free. It is really hydrating, and I think this is probably from all the different types of hydrolysed collagen they have in this. They have a whole bunch of different ones. Another super interesting thing about this sunscreen for me is that it contains a retinoid. It is hydroxypinacolone retinoate or granactive retinoid. And it's really interesting to see it in a sunscreen. It's obviously there for this anti-aging formula. It also has microcooling capsules which are meant to be cooling on application. It also has a UV aging barrier, which is Round Lab's own ingredient mix containing arginine and quercetin. These are antioxidants that can soak up free radical damage, which UV does cause. This also has a bunch of clinical testing for the anti-aging claims. So for example, it's got reduced pore size after 4 weeks, which I think is pretty cool. With sunscreens, most of the time I'm just looking at texture, wearability, and UV protection. I usually just ignore the other added skincare benefits, but for this one, I think they're actually pretty cool."
