Best Sunscreens for Acne-Prone Skin: QUICKFX Pimple Eraser Oil Free Sunscreen Review

Before I start my QUICKFX Pimple Eraser Oil Free Sunscreen review, let me say this again even though I already sound like a broken record: you should wear sunscreen every day, all year-round even if you’re only staying at home. Because no matter how many skin care products you use, even if they have a lot of good reviews, or how expensive they are if you don’t protect yourself from the harmful UV rays then your skin concerns will just continue.

I am also aware that some people have issues with sunscreen. In the Philippines, most of the sunscreens available are too greasy for our warm humid weather. And if we did find one that is perfect for our weather, some of us have acne-prone skin and get a break out from it.

Luckily, I discovered this brand called QUICKFX. I don’t know much about them yet but I do know they are made in the Philippines but formulated in Korea. And they have a Pimple Eraser line which includes sunscreen.

VERDICT
MY THOUGHTS
I couldn't really say anything bad about this sunscreen. It feels comfortable under a face mask which is something we need to consider nowadays, and it doesn't break out my acne-prone sensitive skin.
PROS
Lightweight
Non-Greasy
Non-Tacky
No white cast
Affordable
CONS
Has a semi-dewy finish that may feel off to some people.

WHAT IS IT?

QUICKFX Pimple Eraser Oil Free Sunscreen with SPF50+ is a lightweight and non-oily physical sunscreen. It is specially designed for acne-prone, sensitive skin. It provides UVA/UVB protection without causing acne breakouts and without the white cast. Easily absorbed by the skin. Perfect for daily use.

NOTABLE INGREDIENTS:

  • Bsasm – a natural active ingredient made of a unique combination of 7 natural plant extracts well-known and traditionally used in Asia in order to obtain a fast and particularly efficient soothing effect. It is composed of Centella, Tea, Chamomile, Licorice, Rosemary, Skullcap, and Japanese knotweed
  • Niacinamide – reduces inflammation, which may help ease redness from eczema, acne, and other inflammatory skin conditions. Minimizes pore appearance. Keeping skin smooth and moisturized.
  • Tea Tree Oil – is believed to be antibacterial. Tea tree oil is commonly used to treat acne, nail fungus, insect bites, and more.
  • Vitamin C – accelerates the production of both collagen and elastin, which help keep the skin plump and firm. Topical vitamin C can help prevent premature aging of the skin, restoring a youthful, smooth appearance to the skin.

PERFORMANCE

APPLICATION: In the daytime, as the last step of your skincare routine, blend a generous amount of sunscreen into the skin using circular motions. Apply 15 minutes before sun exposure. Apply at least every 2 hours.

SCENT: It is unscented but like most products, it has this generic “cream scent”. But it will not bother you if you’re scentsitive.

PACKAGING: It comes in a 50ml pump tube. Easy to carry anywhere.

FORMULA & TEXTURE: It feels light on the skin, is easy to blend, and has a semi-dewy finish.

MY EXPERIENCE

My biggest problem with most sunscreens I’ve used is they’re breaking me out. Especially when the mask mandate started due to the pandemic my acne worsened.

First of all, QUICKFX Pimple Eraser Oil Free Sunscreen is affordable. It is also easy to find in the Philippines, it doesn’t leave a white cast on my morena skin tone, and it feels light and non-greasy although it has a semi-dewy finish. Most importantly, it feels comfortable under a face mask, which is something we need to consider nowadays.

I’ve been using this since last October 2021 and as of writing this, I already ordered my second bottle. I don’t really have anything bad to say about this product based on my experience. But I think it’s dewy finish my feel off to some Filipinos because dewy skin is not “our thing” but it can easily be solved with a good loose powder.
