I bought this lotion from the local brand GT. I was enticed to buy this because of its high SPF content. This is their Carrot Lotion 4-in-1 Anti-Aging Formula.
PRICE:
I bought this for 215 pesos at watsons.
PACKAGING:
I really don't like the look of the packaging. There is so much going on.
It comes in a squeezable plastic tube that stands with the cap at the bottom. This makes the product easier to dispense since the product is already near the opening of the tube.
It claims to Whiten. When used, this will give you an instant whitening effect. It usually lasts for more than five hours. As for long term whitening benefits, I don't think this will lighten your skin.
CLAIMS:
It is very moisturizing. It is good because it is not drying. It feels a bit sticky on hot days.
It claims to be a body concealer. This will not cover skin imperfections at all. It can only lighten dark spots a little because of its instant whitening effect.
Sunblock. As for sunblock, it claims to have SPF 60 which is super high. I personally cannot tell if it really has SPF 60 but, Titanium Dioxide is in their ingredients list so it has some protection.
FORMULATION:
- It has a creamy consistency
- It is sticky upon apllication but fades after a few hours. Stickiness is tolerable during cold days but, can get bothering if you sweat a lot or during hot days
- Has a sheer coverage that makes skin look lighter but it cannot cover skin imperfections.
PERFORMANCE:
- Instant whitening effect.
- No harsh white cast
- It does not conceal skin imperfections
FINAL VERDICT:
I love the instant whitening effect it gives and the fact that it has a high SPF. I've used this for several months and found nothing wrong with this product except for the stickiness I feel during hot days.
Overall I give this 4 out of 5
