Hello everyone. I was checking my new sunscreen A'pieu Soo Boo Ji SPF coverage under my sunscreenr this morning, so I thought why not put a post of it. (and a few of kind redditors actually did request it), so here we go:
How I swatch: since I'm indoor and have tinted glass, I can't really do a good swatch.So I took out my nail gel manicure UV Lamp, put my arm underneath it and took photos with sunscreenr.

Not in the swatch; but these sunscreens below also have pitch black swatches under sunscreenr. But I no longer have them so I can't swatch them out today.
- A-derma Protect AD Cream SPF50+
- A-derma Protect AC Mattifying Fluid SPF50+
- Ultrasun Extreme SPF50+
- Ultrasun Family SPF30
- Oriflame Sweden Sun Zonne SPF50+
- Biore Athlizm Essence SPF50+ PA++++
- Klairs UV Airy Essence SPF50+ PA++++
Some observations:
- When I underapply sunscreen (usually on my arm), it won't turn out as dark as compared to when I put thickly on my arm.For example, I spread 1mg on small area vs 1mg on wider area; the smaller area tends to have darker swatch under sunscreenr, so don't under apply
- All of the sunscreens mentioned above aren't patchy at all. Well, unless I want to be that strict, maybe the pure mineral ones, since they can't be seen as clearly under sunscreenr, they can look more patchy.
- All sunscreens that have avobenzone in it will swatch up darker
A kind redditor told me that sunscreenr is very biased with UVA1. You can check out the comment here.
Basically I only use the sunscreenr to check the coverage (does it apply patchy; or if I miss any spot).
