Biore UV Aqua Rich Daily Hydrating Facial Moisturizer with SPF 50 | Oil Free Sunscreen & Primer for Makeup with Hyaluronic Acid, No White Cast, Non-Comedogenic, For Sensitive Skin, PA++++, 1.7 Oz

Good
Excellent sunscreen. It’s lightweight, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave the skin greasy or with a white cast. Ideal for sensitive skin, it moisturizes well and works perfectly for daily use.

Not the “Watery Essence” formula, but still has its benefits
The formula being used for Bioré UV Aqua Rich’s North American debut is noticeably different than its Japanese counterpart, but it’s still a better sunscreen than the thick ones of the past.This sunscreen is a lot lighter than others and is definitely suitable for all day wear without having that heavy sunscreen feel on your face all day. It almost feels like a light moisturizer, completely different from other heavier face sunscreens.~~~For those who are not familiar, the Japanese version of Bioré UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence has a huge following online because it is a sunscreen that feels like a light and scentless moisturizer that immediately soaks into your skin leaving no grease or whitecast behind. You can wear it comfortably all day without noticing any grease or heavy sunscreen feel.This new American formula shares a brand name but they left out the “Watery Essence” branding and part of the formula. The American formula has its differences which makes it slightly inferior compared to the Japanese version, but superior when compared to other American sunscreens.This formula is a more traditional American sunscreen that’s white in color and leaves a greasy film on your hands after you apply. The American version also doesn’t soak in as quickly as its Japanese counterpart, but still faster than others. This formula starts to absorb quickly but takes around 15 minutes to continue sinking in when I tested it underneath my arm and on my face. This is definitely better than other face sunscreens that seem to sit on top of your skin all day only getting greasier as the day goes on. The sunscreen seems to at least soak in 90-95% of the way leaving behind a very slight slickness but you definitely won’t feel it sitting on your skin all day.As others have pointed out, this formula also has a noticeable scent of a faintly floral and citrus combination. The Japanese version really doesn’t have a noticeable scent even though they claim the scent is “white muguet.”It seems that this product had to be changed based on FDA sunscreen regulations. The box says that it’s “inspired” by the Japanese formula, but had to be changed because the active ingredient that makes the Japanese formula so great isn’t approved for use in the US. It’s great that Bioré could still make a product that gets around 75% of the way there, but releasing it under the “Bioré UV Aqua Rich” was slightly misleading to fans of the “UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence” formula.Hopefully one day in the future we’ll be able to buy the “Watery Essence” formula stateside, but until then this sunscreen is a close runner-up, especially if it is your first time trying one!

Chemical Reaction, Face Burned with Bumps and Dryness.
I have a combination skin. I believe I combined it with an AHA or retinol. I also used face paint during that period, and it had no reaction previously, but maybe this caused it. It caused a chemical reaction I believe. My face extremely broke out, which is rare for my skin. It also led to some pretty painful tear burns. The final result was a dry, bumpy skin. I don’t blame the product because I have been using it for weeks so far, it’s light, has a slight citrus-y smell, and goes on white (when used modestly).While the product did NOT cause this, I wanted to provide a solution. My whole face was dry, itchy, burning, et cetera. It was to the point that even water burned my face.I used petroleum jelly at night, and my face healed a lot by the next day. For the whole week, I did not do my skincare, and it seems to have returned to almost normal.I’ll continue using this product. It works well under makeup, just before you leave, or for your morning skincare routine. Hope this helps anyone who had a similar situation. Please remember my skin is a combination of oil and dry, so petroleum jelly works well for me but may not work well for others.

SPF 50
This sunscreen is thick and creamy. It has a slight alcohol smell but it fades after a few minutes. It has it all, including, a daily face moisturizer with spf 50, oil free, non comedogeniclt, a face primer with hylauronic acid, and it’s great for sensitive skin. It also won the 2024 Allure best of beauty award. There’s no white cast and it works well with your makeup. Overall, it’s a great product for all it does.

Este protector solar reafirma por que Biore es la marca #1 de FPS en Japón🇯🇵 Sin duda un chapuzón de frescura en la piel 🌊 con protección solar.Llevo años usando skincare coreano y por primera vez creo que encontré al santo grial de la protección solar. Lo es incluso para las pieles más exigentes como las coreanas; donde el skincare es una religión.Lo que más amo es la facilidad con la que se absorbe, no deja rastro blanco, ni brillo, ni sensación pegajosa. Perfecto para usar debajo del maquillaje.Sin duda, disfruto sentir que añadí un pequeño ritual de frescura, una escapada sensorial en medio del caos del día a día, es el tipo de producto que te hace pensar: “¿Dónde estuviste toda mi vida?”LO VOLVERÍA A COMPRAR HASTA LLEGAR AL NÚMERO DE REPRODUCCIONES DE STRAY KIDS EN SPOTIFY 🫰🏽

Se absorbe rápido, no deja esa película “polvosa o “grasosa” como Isdin o Eucerin, se aplica como una crema en gel. Sí arde ligeramente en los ojos cuando sudas, no recomiendo ponerse en los párpados. Huele a cítrico, pero no es insoportable.
