I'm an aesthetician - this £5.49 SPF makes it look like you're wearing makeup
One aesthetician has recommended snapping up this £5.49 sun cream on Prime Day as it is packed with good ingredients and 'looks like you're wearing makeup'.
Skin expert and influencer Alicia Lartey told her 31,000 Instagram followers that the Garnier Vitamin C Daily UV Brightening Fluid Sheer Glow SPF50+ should be on their wish list on Prime Day.
She said: 'This sunscreen doesn't sting my eyes but it has a gorgeous glowy finish that is not greasy at all it looks like you're wearing makeup but its really just your skincare - so its protect and glow.'
This product is focused on amping up the brightness levels of your skin. Alicia said: 'Sometimes we just have to run it back and today we're revisiting the Garnier Vitamin C Daily UV Fluid SPF50+ Glow because we just need to refocus on the glow.'
However, some will know that when you try and add a dewy finish to your look - it can quickly look more greasy and slick than we would like. However Alicia says this is not the case for this sun cream. She added: 'This is one of those sunscreens that gives you a glow without the greasy finish.'
She continued: 'Pairing vitamin c and sunscreen helps to further protect your skin and give you brightness overall. This is a hybrid sunscreen formula with a slight tint and also works well under makeup.'
She noted that the sunscreen filters include Octisalate, Ethylhexyl Triazone, Avobenzone, Tinosorb S, Mexoryl XL and Titanium Dioxide.
For those who find themselves with a congested t-zone - this product may also be for you. Alicia added: 'I particularly love this sunscreen for oily skin, you can absolutely see the glow.'
Another difficulty with sun cream can be that it stings our eyes, and makes our makeup run down our face when we're trying to look our best in the warm summer days - this product also fights against that with Alicia stating 'there is no eye sting.'

She finished with concluding that 'overall this is a good choice if you want a sunscreen formula that does more than just protect your skin.'
Also, if you find yourself struggling with uneven skin tone - this suncream could help you out. Alicia added a top tip which is that 'as this is a tinted sunscreen this formula contains iron oxides which are beneficial for those managing uneven skin tone.'
One fan of the product commented: 'LOVE this glow one! I've ran out must get more.' Another said: 'Oooo I just recently started using invisible one. Love it. The glow one looks great on you.'

Rosie O'Donnell fans react to her slimmed down figure
Rosie O'Donnell is marveling at the slimmed down figure she has achieved with the help of weight loss drug Mounjaro. The former talk show host, 63, has been taking the drug since late 2022, yet remains in disbelief over how far she has come. In her latest Instagram post, Rosie revealed she is now a size 12 - and praised the drug as a 'life saver'. Rosie showed off her dramatic results as she went shopping for a new travel outfit, her slimmed down body on display in a fitted black track suit. 'ok so went shopping to but a comfy lounge wear outfit for my 22 hour flight to Australia- was undecided as i cant see myself in this new smaller body- cam n robin took this photo of me in the dressing room - i am shocked im a 12 - #mounjaro is a life saver,' she gushed in the caption. Fans were equally impressed in the comments, with one merely stating 'WOW' (along with a few emojis) in response to the picture. Kristin Chenoweth also chimed in, writing: 'You look amazing!' Another wrote: 'It is a life changing med! Not only does it help you lose weight but decreases the inflammation in your body so you feel so much better. Rosie - you look great and hope you feel great too!!' One complimented her: ''I've been needing this for years but my insurance won't cover it. You look awesome-although your Beautiful soul shines through in ANY body.' Mounjaro 'is an injectable prescription medicine that is used along with diet and exercise to improve blood sugar (glucose) in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus,' per the official website. Back in March of this year, O'Donnell talked about her 'shocking' new size after taking the medication. In a TikTok video uploaded at the time, she explained to her followers: 'I am on Mounjaro for my diabetes and one of the side effects is you lose weight. 'But [the weight loss] is also because I had a chef for over two years in Los Angeles and I don't have a chef now. It's me cooking for [my child] Clay and me.' The TV personality then recalled how she went to a clothing store in Dublin and revealed she was a size large after previously wearing sizes XL or XXL. 'I find it shocking. I really do. I find it completely shocking,' the mom-of-five expressed. Being on Mounjaro has not only aided her in losing weight, but has made her feel 'healthier' and she is also 'sleeping better.' Back in January 2023, Rosie revealed she had been prescribed the medication and credited it with helping her drop 10 pounds during the holiday season. While taking her child to school, the star explained on TikTok: 'I need to let you know I've lost 10lbs since Christmas.' She added that she had been taking Mounjaro after a fan commented, 'You can't drop a bomb like that and not tell us HOW???' Rosie stated, 'Okay, so like two months ago, my doctor put me on... not Ozempic, Mounjaro? Something like that, and Repath.' She added, 'One I do every other week, and one I do once a week. And that and on Christmas, I stopped drinking anything except water.
