Sun Putty Sunscreen Product Review

I was thrilled to be asked to test a new facial sunscreen product all the way from the USA - Sun Putty. It's 100% natural which I love, as I do worry about the number of harsh chemicals/ingredients I apply to my skin & body every day through skin-care, hygiene and make-up. Sun Putty also has great sun protection with SPF 30 which is a necessity with my very fair skin.
Sun Putty is very different from your usual sunscreen products: It's light grey in colour and it feels like a moist sticky putty, but it glides on your skin smoothly, blends into the skin easily, and goes clear. It also has a delightful sweet orange scent.
For my morning skincare routine, I applied Sun Putty after my moisturiser but before primer & make-up. It doesn't feel heavy nor greasy which is great for my oily & spot-prone skin. Additionally the ingredients make it a natural insect repellant, and it's water resistant.
This is an easy & effective daily facial sunscreen, and is a great addition to my skincare routine, especially as my favourite moisturiser & foundation does not contain any SPF protection.
The best thing about Sun Putty is that it does last all day - and it truly was put to the test with the current UK heat-wave and being active with Tristan & Scarlett.
As well as being a great facial sunscreen, Sun Putty is also moisturising and helps soothe irrated skin (including acne) & chapped lips.
Sun Putty is not yet available in UK stores, but can be ordered via their US website.
