Thank you! Hm, I was afraid it would be like that. Better apply sunscreen instead.

Julia, you’re welcome. Well, if you’re not applying the recommended amount, then you’re getting a much lower level of protection (about SPF 4 or 5). If only spend 20 minutes outside a day (and stay away from windows too), that may just be enough but I would still recommend you apply sunscreen in conjunction with it to be on the safe side. Hope this helps.

My question is a bit different: I use Olay’s sensitive day cream with SPF15 if I don’t spend more than 20 minutes outside (instead of the usual SPF 50 Japanese sunscreen), but have been wondering if that is enough, because you need to apply a teaspoon of sunscreen to get the entire protection (right?), but I’m not applying that much moisturizer, of course. What do you think?
(I am applying mineral make-up on top.)

Amanda, I agree with you. I would chose one with SPF too, but I just wouldn’t rely solely on it for sun protection.

But if I had to choose one with SPF and one without, I guess I would choose the former.
