Two million people bought the old version. Now Skin1004 swapped it out — and half the reviews are panicking. I get it.
The real issue? They boosted SPF from 50 to 50+ *and* added more centella. That’s usually a recipe for a chalky mess. But it’s not.
It’s a milky sunscreen-serum hybrid. $16 for 50ml. They claim “water-fit” texture — no white cast, no grease.
SPF 50+ PA++++
Actual max protection — not just marketing
Hyalu-Cica complex
Hyaluronic acid + centella = hydration that sticks
No pore clogging
Non-comedogenic. My oily T-zone didn’t revolt.

They swapped chemical filters for a hybrid mineral-chemical blend. Less irritation, more skin-soothing. The hero here is centella asiatica — think “calm down, redness.”
- Centella Asiatica Extract: Anti-redness + healing in one shot
- Hyaluronic Acid: Holds 1000x its weight in water
- Niacinamide: Brightens without burning
- Zinc Oxide: Physical blocker that doesn’t turn you ghostly

First pump — it’s watery, almost runny. Absorbs in 8 seconds flat. No white cast on my medium-tan skin. No pilling under makeup. Weirdly refreshing — like a cloudy morning.
Week 3: My rosacea-calmed redness didn’t spike after sun exposure. That never happens. Unexpected win — it doubles as a light moisturizer. I skipped my AM cream one day. Fine.

My skin didn’t burn once. No new texture bumps. But it’s not matte — if you’re oily, you’ll need powder by 2 PM.

Better than the original. It’s lighter, less sticky, and actually calms my skin. Not a revolution — just the best daily SPF I’ve tried this year.
