Banana boat Sport SPF 50 Sweat Resistant

This time, i tried another product from banana boat. The name is Banana boat Sport SPF 50 Sweat Resistant. Actually this thing comes in 2types, the first one is sweat resistant and the other is water resistant. Since i thought that i dont use it for swimming so i choose the sweat resistant one.

*unfortunately, i cant find the picture that exactly the same with the one that i’ve been used. The one that i’ve used is just like this without the text of “super size” and not “ultra sweatproof” just sweat resistant.*

Ingredients:
aqua, octocrylene, ethylthexyl methocinnamate, benzophenone-3, ethylthexyl salicylate, VP/Ecosene copolymer, isodecyl neopentonoate, DEA-cetyl posphate, stearic acid, tridecyl neopentonoate, stearyl alcohol, adipic acid/dietylene, glycol/glycerin crospolimer, dimethicone, imidozolidinyl urea, triethanolamine, methylparaben, cetyl palmitate, polyglyceryl-3, disostearate, silica, carbomer, isopropylparaben, isobutylparaben, butylparaben, acrilates/C 10-30 alcyl acrylate crospolimer, trisodium EDTA, aloe barbadensis, tocopherol (vit E)
contains oxybenxone

Review:
The first time, i open this tube i felt disturb by its smell. It stinks a bit. The texture is quite creamy but it easilt to blend. From the ingredients list, i can conclude that this product is not broad spectrum sunscreen because it cant cover all UVA spectrum because it doesnt contain either avobenzone or mexoryl. The worst part is it so greasy and need very long time to sink. So, your face will feel so sticky.. ><" And i dont have enought time for waiting it to sink, so it such a mess when i force to apply the loose powder into it. It looked like i got many island in my face.. (T.T)

Price:
I bought it around Rp 130000,00 for 118ml. I can say that it is quite cheap for that amount.

Will i buy it again?:
No, because it’s too sticky for me and now i used it for my body only.

Review:
My first impression when i open the tube is it smell nice ^^ The texture is quite like cream but once u blend it, it turns more like liquid so u can blend it easily. The texture is very light that makes u wont feel like using sunsreen. The product doesnt give greasy and oily look for u, and u dont have to leave it for a long time in waiting it to dry. So when i used this thing, it really save my time in preparing especially in the morning ^^ From the blog that i’ve read about ingredients in sunscreen, i can say that this product is broad spectrum that can cover both UV A and B rays that is essential for sunscreen. After i wore it for quite a long time, i dont feel any oilness in my skin, which is great so i dont have to dry it with blotting paper. Since it says that very sweat/water resistant so i have a faith that i can stand over my condition that often sweating. So, i can say that this sunscreen is great!

Price:
Unfortunately, this product is not available in Indonesia. I bought it from my friend, and from the drugstore.com it say that the price is $7.99 for 59ml.

Will i buy it again?:
Absolutely! This is the first time i found sunscreen that fits me well which dont leave greasiness and oily look to my face.

Review:
Since i got in sample size so i cant get the ingredient list. The texture is quite like a liquid but not so watery. When i used it, it really makes my face very very smooth.

Review:
Unfortunately, i cant get the ingredient list since i only got it in sample size. My first impression is the size is perfect! i can easily carry it if i wanna go since i dont like carry too many things in my bag. And after i try it on my lips, i cant say more except AWESOME! The texture is not so sticky and so easily applied. The shade makes my lip look healthier with a natural color, quite red but not-so-red. And the one that i cant resist is the moisture. Its name really explain the product cause  it is super moisturing once u applied onto your lip and it not only give the moisture for a while but for a long time. Actually, lately my lip condition is really bad, my lips is chapped and even though  i’ve worn burt’s bee lipbalm but seems not work well. And once i use this gloss, my lips totally great, it doesnt chap anymore. Finally, i found my HG lipgloss ^^. Next time, i would like to try it in apricot shade which more pinky-peach color.

Price:
The price for the product in 15ml is HK$ 120. *i got this information from the web cause i dont know how much  it  will cost in jakarta.

Will i buy it again? :
Absolutely!!  it is the great product i wont ever think twice before i buy it. ^^
