several months ago, several local brands released a bunch of new sunscreen. there are a lot to pick from so it's quite overwhelming. however, i decided to wait until i almost finish my stash before starting to try them. one of the brand that released sunscreen is carasun. this is quite special since carasun is a new brand, solely selling sunscreen and cushion to reapply sunscreen, so there are not many products from this brand.
this is the description translated from their website: cloud-like texture, no clogged pores, rice extract and city stem. with texture as airy as cloud, safe for sensitive skin, nourish and protect from pollution, indoor and outdoor, collaborated with experts from south korea, fresh until 8 hours. halal sunscreen with SPF 45 PA++++, developed specifically for tropical skin need. with cloud-like texture formula that's lightweight, transparent and non clogging for pores, solar smart UV protector gives the most comfortable protection from tropical sun all day long, for indoor and outdoor activity.
size 8 ml, 30 ml, 70 ml.
the packaging: there are three sizes of this sunscreen, so there are two packaging. for the 30 ml and the 80 ml, both comes in tube packaging, like other sunscreen in the market. but for the travel size, they opted for a different packaging. it comes in a plastic squeeze pouch, like baby's food pouch, only smaller. the color and design is the same as the full size one. there's description at the back of the pouch. the travel size is only 8 ml.

the scent: it's unscented. and doesn't smell weird or foul at all.

the product: just like marketed, it comes in snow white airy cream that feels lightweight. like dense bubble. or cloud. even though it's thick, but it's lightweight and spreadable easily. it sinks in pretty quickly

the result: it leaves matte finish and doesn't feel sticky at all. however, i've read somewhere that it might get oily if you use too much, especially for oily skin. as for me, somehow with my age and regular use of retinol, my skin gets drier a little bit. so, this sunscreen doesn't make me oily, but i don't use too much anyway. this definitely doesn't leave any white cast at all.

if you don't mind the texture, then this is a good option for you. i think it'll be suitable for all skin types. it leaves matte finish and doesn't give any white cast, which is perfect for darker skin tone. plus, it gives several size options as well, so you can pick whatever suit your need. i don't know where i can buy this since i found this at sociolla. as for price wise, it's affordable. as for me, now it's my time to try all local sunscreen available in the market right now, so i'd probably won't repurchase this any time soon.
