Skin Care Review: Maybelline White Stay UV 2 Way Foundation

by SY Lee, Hong Kong China

Rating
Adverse Effects

Benefits
The product claims to help shield UV rays and contains skin whitening ingredient.

Drawbacks
It does not seem to suit oily skin because it causes acne in my face.

Details
I am over 40 and have used the product for about 6 months. I purchased it because of its whitening ingredient and claimed sunscreening function. However, its adverse effect of causing acne makes me decide to stop using it.

From a recent reading, I came to know that many people do not apply sufficient amount of their sunscreen products to gain the desirable protection. In particular, a thin layer of foundation powder with sunscreen ingredient is unlikely to bring out the claimed sunscreen benefit. After knowing this, I would use effective sunscreen moisturizer instead of relying on a UV ray shield foundation.

Conclusions
The product is unsatisfactory.

Price (paid by reviewer)
US$15
