|Review|: Meet Your Skin’s New BFF: Primary Skin SPF 65 Centella Soothing Sun Milk
4:04 PMI am ecstatic to see the awareness around sunscreens and sunblock recently. Despite having harsh sunny days, sun block usage has been non existent in our part of the world. Thanks to the social media frenzy in past couple of years that emphasized on the importance of using sun blocks and their advantages. I am reviewing Primary Skin's SPF 65 Centella Soothing Sun milk today.

I have used two products from Primary Skin back in the Covid days when they launched. The world was gradually shifting towards serums at that time and terms like Niacinamide and Hyaluronic acid were slowly gaining popularity. In year 2024, the brand rebranded itself and I had to try their products. I ordered 5 of their products and I couldn't be more happier with my decision.

The brand stands for transparency and knowledge sharing. They clearly mention their ingredient list on their products and also they have a dedicated page on their website where they have mentioned the ingredients for all their products along with benefits. Doing so provides the customer a level of trust knowing what is being applied on the skin. As you can see from below image, a complete set of ingredients is mentioned for their sunscreen.

The sleek packaging and the promise of a lightweight, zero white cast formula immediately caught my attention. The Sun Milk boasts a SPF 65 with broad-spectrum protection, powered by hybrid SPF filters, including advanced Korean skincare technology. For someone who struggles with greasy sunscreens, this sounded like a dream.

Packaging and Texture:
The product comes in a white cardboard box with blue branding. Its minimal design yet very eye catching. I'd take this moment to appreciate the designer and creative head who came up with the designs and re-branding of the brand. The product itself comes in a soft squeeze tube of excellent quality containing 50 ml product.
The sunscreen is light weight, quick absorbent and odor less. I get where the name Sun Milk comes from. The sunscreen literally feels like milk upon skin due to its color and texture.

Primary Skin BFF SPF 65 Centella Soothing Sun Milk lives up to its name—it truly feels like your skin’s best friend. Lightweight, non-greasy, and packed with skin-loving ingredients, it’s an all-in-one solution for sun protection and skin care. The "milk" consistency spreads effortlessly, absorbing into the skin without leaving any sticky residue or heaviness. And yes, there's absolutely no white cast—even on my medium-toned skin, which is a huge win! Unlike a couple of big names, it does not leave my eye lids greasy and my makeup does not budge due to excessive oiliness on the skin.
