My thoughts on Ilse Jacobsen seaweed face cream

I received this in on of my Goodieboxes.

And I have never tried any products from this brand before. The brand is Danish and they produce skincare and clothes. I am somewhat skeptical towards companies that produce clothes (seem to be their major genre) and skincare. I do feel that I trust a company more that focusing only on skincare for this part. It is like Ikea would start selling skincare I would walk the other way.

The brand has two facial sun creams and they are both rather low in SPF. The one I received had SPF 15 but it also comes in a version of SPF 30. 15 is way too low for me, I usually go for 50 both body and face but still it is better than nothing. And I can use it when the sun isn’t too strong.

My first thought is that it doesn’t feel like a sun cream. It is lightweight and doesn’t leave any white cast. It applies really nice and absorbs fast without leaving my skin feeling oily. So really more like a regular moisturizer. The cream is waterproof and during this summer it worked well with my skin and I didn’t burn despite the low SPF.

Ilse Jacobsen seaweed face cream is scented but not too strong (but quite perfumey). Usually I would love my products to be unscented but that perfect world doesn’t seem to exists😊

This is really a Great all-round face sun cream but I wished the SPF was higher.

I give this product 5/7
