Review: Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Jelly
Even since a few years ago, I have been religiously putting on sun screen on my body, or rather any exposed parts of my body, like my arms, legs and even on my feet. As much I hate the lingering sticky feel of the sun block on my bare skin, I tolerated with it.
I am always in search of THE perfect everyday body sunblock and I am glad that I finally found it.
Item name: Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Jelly SPF30 PA+++
Price: I presumed it is fairly reasonable as I bought it in a drugstore in Taiwan.. It was either TWD 199 or TWD 299, I cannot recall.
Description: A new series of water-based sunscreen innovation from Japan that provides lasting protection against both UVA and UVB radiation. It is light, non-sticky, and easy to smear on the skin as the protection-enriched UV Aqua Jelly Capsule turns into water once applied, allowing the skin to absorb it very quickly and easily. With combination of Hyaluronic Acid and Mix Citrus Essence from grapefruit, orange, and lemon extracts, the new product also provides anti-wrinkle effect by helping the skin retain its moisture and softness.
Refreshingly cool and quick-drying, suitable for both facial and body skin.
Pros: I have very little expectations from a body sunscreen, I just want it to absorbed fast, no strong sunscreen smell and my skin should not feel sticky after application. This sunblock fulfills all my expectations.
It comes in a squeeze tube bottle, the quantity is 90ml and is made in Japan.
Cons: It is not listed in my local Biore website, so most probably my local drugstore might not stock it.
Conclusion: I definitely love this sunblock and I would definitely repurchase it (that is, if I can manage to find it). As for now, this sun block suits my average daily needs, I am typically out in the sun for a short while, like walking to the bus stop in the mornings and for lunch. I am not too sure if it is heaty-duty enough to protect me if I were to stay out for a long time in the hot afternoon sun. This is a scenario that I have yet to test out.
