For the month of July, Beauty Heroes has set up the perfect holiday/travel box, featuring 4 products from Kari Gran, including their latest launch, namely the Three sixty five sunscreen. The 4 of them now constitute the Kari Gran system.
The hero product: The Three Sixty Five SPF 28 (full-size).
I actually ordered it a month before on The Choosy Chick as I was already looking for a sunscreen (clearly I have no psychic abilities haha), so I gave away the second bottle to my mom who’s now also using it (#thegreenevangelist is back on). More seriously, this actually enabled me to have a proper testing time and make up my mind on its efficiency and performance.
Kari Gran took the challenge of crafting a sunscreen that can be used all year round, hence its name Three sixty five. Basically, it means that despite the weather and skin changes, Three sixty five has to deliver performance-wise. Staying true to its minimalistic and simple philoshophy, Kari Gran’s Three Sixty Five contains less than 10 ingredients. I was initially worried that it might feel greasy on my oily skin, because it’s formulated with nourishing oils such as avocado and macadamia, but I had nothing to worry about. Once applied, it feels very light and remains non-clogging – a total relief, as my skin is unreliable in the Summer. What is particularly astonishing is the fact that Three sixty five will appeal to all skin types because of its formula. Everyone will be able to enjoy its benefits. The rather unusual ingredient was the French plum seed, which seems to benefit all skin types, from oily, combination, acneic skin to dry or/and mature. Its revitalizing and nourishing properties are said to improve the skin’s elasticity and to be effective in treating sun- damaged skin, which is highly convenient for a sunscreen.
So far, the SPF products I had a really positive experience with, were the Josh Rosebrook’s Nutrient day cream (I had the tinted version, reviewed here) and Erbaviva’s sunscreen. Texture-wise, Three-Sixty-five has a thinner and oilier consistency and doesn’t sit on the surface if you massage it. My only “reservation” is the risk of a white cast if you don’t blend it properly, but this is something that happens with most non-tinted versions. Once massaged in, it is fully absorbed. I can’t really identify what it smells of exactly, but it’s presumably a subtle mixture of red raspberry, kukui, and avocado. Nothing too pronounced though, it remains pleasant. Even if I have oily skin, I did not experience any additional breakouts during its use, and I’ve been wearing it daily since I got it. No burning sensation, no itchiness, no discomfort throughout the day and in the heat. It has definitely found a place in my “go-to sunscreens” list now.

The full-sized products + the lip whips are also available in the Beauty Heroes shop, including new brands such as UMA Face and Wellness Oils, Plume Science Lash + Brow enhancing serum, so feel free to have a browse.
Have you tried Kari Gran? What do you think of the July box?
Take care,
