Living in Indonesia, it's hard to avoid sun exposure. So using sunblock everyday is a must if you don't want harmful UV ray break your skin. I never forget to put sunblock eventhough I don't have outdoor activity because I'm afraid to find brown spot on my face and premature aging caused by UV ray.
But, as we know sunblock always make our face feel sticky and greasy. Sometimes, that makes us lazy to use it. I've been using sunblock from many brand. all of them promise their sunblock doesn't leave sticky and greasy feeling. I ended up buying all of them. But when I applied them, all of them finally leaving me whitecast and greasy feeling. ooooouugggghhh...
But, i never give up in finding the ideal sunblock as I expected. One day, when I read review from one of the beauty blogger, my eyes caught this sunblock, BIORE UV AQUA RICH. Then, I googled about it. Woooow.. Many beauty blogger raved it. ALL of them agree that this sunblock doesn't make face become oily, no greasy and sticky feeling.. Sounds great, right???
In my mind, I always say "I must buy this!!!""
Hahahahha..
When I visited one of shopping mall in my city, I found Guardian counter. I remember that my dream sunblock is sold in Indonesia in Guardian. So, I entered and looking for it.
There are two types of Biore sunblock. Biore Aqua Rich UV Face Mousse SPF 50+ PA+++ and the other is Biore Aqua Rich UV Gel SPF 30 PA+++. SPF 30 content is 90 ml. The SPF 50 content is smaller, 33g and the price is slightly more expensive.
I choose the SPF 30 because I want to give try first. The price is
around Rp 99.000. I forget the certain price but it's not over Rp
100.000. In my opinion, the price is quite cheap because we get 90 ml. And it can be used for face and body...
On the outer packaging, there is expelanation about the product in English. I have thrown away the packaging, so here I take how it look from Kao Singapore website.
"Unique moisture-lock formula with high moisture content offers long
lasting UV protection of SPF 30/PA+++. It is enriched with Hyaluronic
Acid & citrus essence to hydrate & soften skin. Its water-based
texture makes it easy to spread onto skin and is instantly absorbed.
Suitable for face & body". (taken from Kao singapore website)
For the first impression, I like the packaging. The packaging is simple
and sleek as any other Japanese skincare brand. Even though it comes in
plastic packaging, but it doesn't make it look cheap. the size is quite
handy if we want to bring it for travelling.
And at the back side, there is detail about the product written in Japanese. Sorry, i can't translate it for you guys :)
I love the applicator. It makes the application easier.
From the first usage, i really love this product so much. The gel texture is very light.
As you can see on the pictures below, the texture is so watery.. It's so lightweight. It gives fresh feeling when i put on my skin, like i splash my skin with water ^.^
Blend it...
It has fresh citrus scent, but I think the scent is tolerable. It will disappear quickly.
After blending, it is absorbed quickly by my skin, like sink onto my skin.
VOILAAA... See... it doesn't make my skin oily. No whitecast and greasiness also.. Like i don't put anything on my skin.
And.. I feel my skin is so matte all day.. I guess it has oil control too. I don't need to put powder anymore on my face :)
I really really LOVE this sunblock..
Wanna try this????
