Anessa Whitening Essence Facial UV Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++

I inherited this 40g tube of Anessa Whitening Essence Facial UV Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++ from my gal pal J. She bought it a couple of years ago (it's been discontinued as of 2017), tried it, didn't like it, and passed it on to me. Even then, it took me until now to get to it, so suffice to say this review is super late and useless =.=", but I'm posting it anyway since this blog functions more like a product diary than anything else.

Anessa Perfect UV Sunscreen Aqua Booster Mild SPF50+ PA++++

I ran out of Sunkiller Perfect Strong Moisture which I've been using to thin up really thick, pasty, or opaque sunscreens, so I moved on to this 60mL bottle of Anessa Perfect UV Sunscreen Aqua Booster Mild SPF50+ PA++++ instead. This sunscreen has since been reformulated and repackaged as Perfect UV Sunscreen Mild Milk in a peach-colored bottle.

Anessa Perfect Essence Sunscreen A+N SPF50+ PA++++

Having finished Anessa Perfect UV Sunscreen A+N, I moved on to my 25g tube of Anessa Perfect Essence Sunscreen A+N SPF50+ PA++++, which is a terrible idea because it's getting really humid. At the same time, I don't want to wait until the fall to use it. This product has also been discontinued and this review too is already outdated as it is. I just want to hurry up and use it.

Anessa Perfect UV Sunscreen A+N SPF50+ PA++++

I've been staying away from Anessa sunscreens on purpose because they're super drying and expensive--more expensive than Allie, can you believe that? But then I stumbled onto a 30% sale at my local drugstore and decided to give it a try, though I only bought the half sizes just in case my skin doesn't like it.

That was during the winter when my skin was already super dry, so I didn't touch either of these until a few weeks ago, when I busted out the 25mL bottle of Anessa Perfect UV Sunscreen A+N SPF50+ PA++++ to mix with the unfortunate Hada-Labo Koi-Gokujyun Perfect UV Gel.

The funny thing is that this Perfect UV Sunscreen A+N milk has been discontinued, replaced with a Perfect UV Sunscreen Aqua Booster as of this spring. So yes, this review is already outdated =.="
