Review: SkinStation's Dermax UV Sunscreen Line

SkinStation's Dermax UV Sunscreen Line

Summer is fast approaching and a must have to beat the ultraviolet rays of the scorching sun during this time of the year is an efficient sunblock. Sun Protection Factor which is commonly known as SPF refers to the amount of time one can stay under the heat of the sun without getting sunburned. For example SPF of 50 would allow one to stay in the sun 50 times longer than you could without protection. Knowing one's protection needs is essential in choosing the right sunblock for you. The higher the SPF, the more + symbols after PA the  better.

I was lucky enough to have been given the chance to try out SkinStation's Dermax UV Sunscreen Line and here is a description of the products as well as my personal review. This is a long over due review actually, and it is because I really wanted to try the products on a day to day basis and be able to get results.

The breakthrough water rich formula leaves a burst of moisture as this lightweight sunscreen is applied on skin. It hydrates the skin while giving  ample protection against harmful UVA/UVB rays from the sun.

This variant is a Water-resistant sun protection for active lifestyles. UV Active Hydrating Sunscreen creates a cooling burst of moisture as it touches the skin. It contains SPF boosting Nyamplung oil and gentle sunscreen ingredients that protect against UVA and UVB rays. Its water-resistant, water-rich formula is perfect for those with active lifestyles and is deal for the face and body.

Both UV Baby Water-Burst Sunscreen with SPF 30+ PA+++ and UV Active Water-Burst Sunscreen  with SPF 45+ PA+++  when massaged onto your skin, releases water droplets and gives out a refreshing cooling sensation. As the fast absorbing sunscreens are spread, no white cast nor undesirable oily feel is observed. Only soft smooth skin. 

All the variants I must say are very light on the skin and does not have that greasy after feel. It also does not have that stinging effect to the eyes, which my little one really hates as much as I do. I have been personally using the three variants and I must say that they all work pretty well for me. I use UV baby Water-Burst Sunscreen for my 7 year old daughter and she never complained of having a sunburn after long exposures under the sun. One more thing that I like about the products is that they are very sanitary because they come in pump dispensers, meaning they don't easily get contaminated when bottle cap is left open.

Our skin should never be taken for granted. Not only during summer time, but all year round. Sunscreen is an everyday must have. It's a matter of finding the right one which suits your skin type and your lifestyle. Should you wish to try the said sunscreen variants that SkinStation has to offer, please feel free to visit their website, their Facebook Page, or their nearest branch.

SkinStation SoGentle Gel Cleanser & AcneX Pore Clearing Gel Cleanser, A Must Try

Finding the right facial cleanser that best suits your skin type is really essential. What is more necessary is finding one that does not contain chemicals which may harm not only your skin, but one's overall health. It's a good thing that SkinStation has come up with products which are SULFATE-FREE, PARABEN-FREE, and FRAGRANCE-FREE.

The SoGentle Gel Cleanser is a facial wash which is formulated to cleanse, moisturize and gently remove dirt without over-drying the skin. Instead of harsh sulfates, nature's cleaning extracts from soap berry and coco betaine are introduced into the product. It also contains soothing organic aloe vera extract from Jeju Island that enhances after-feel, making skin soft and supple. SoGentle Gel Cleanser best suits all skin types.

The AcneX Pore Clearing Gel Cleanser is another quality product from SkinStation.It contains time-release micro-encapsulated salicylic acid to gently remove dead skin cells. It is most effective in clearing up pores of skin debris, thus helping prevent formation of blackheads. This advanced formula leaves skin smoother and pimple-free. It is best for people with oily and acne-prone skin.

The advantages of both SkinStation cleansers over other products in the market today is that they are safe and gentle on the skin because they are SULFATE-FREE, PARABEN-FREE, and FRAGRANCE-FREE. What do these chemicals do to our health? Sulfates are irritants that strip the skin of natural oils, moisture, and protective barriers that are needed for skin protection. While parabens are antimicrobial preservatives that are absorbed by the skin and are linked to an increased risk of breast tumor development. And lastly, fragrance can represent chemicals that may cause allergies, asthma attacks, or headaches which is also a detriment to one's health.

HOW TO USE: Wet your face and gently massage the cleanser in circular motion. Rinse and pat dry with a soft and clean towel. For best results, use morning and evening.

Both facial cleansers have a creamy texture which can be easily rinsed off. Having tried it for a couple of days, never did my skin feel dry, nor did I have allergic reactions to the product. Since most people are becoming more conscious about wellness inside and out, I believe that SkinStation products are a must try.

Beauty is not just skin deep... It all starts with ones overall health...
