Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++ 70g Sunscreen Made in Japan (Wortery Essence)

I first purchased this sunscreen approx 6 years ago on holiday in Singapore and fell in love with it because I had never experienced anything as lightweight and protective in any of my Western sunscreens and my goodness I’ve tried a lot ( mid to high end) sunscreens and nothing came close. I was therefore thrilled to find it available now on Amazon and it’s even better in consistency (if that was possible because it was close to perfection all those years ago).Its also in a 70g tube now rather than 50g. It’s just like applying water to your skin. It absorbs almost instantly isn’t sticky and leaves no white cast. I’d say it leaves a natural to slightly radiant glow but nothing too wet or pearlised looking. It’s perfect to put on for a day in the sun at the beach because the protection is stellar and it’s equally good under makeup, actually it’s acts as a great makeup primer, it does not pil and you can reapply over your makeup without it causing streaks. You can smell the alcohol in it for about 5 seconds when you first apply it but that goes very quickly, other than that I’d say it has virtually no fragrance - it certainly does not have that horrid sunscreen smell. I can’t tell you how thrilled I am to be able to get this sunscreen in the UK, it blows the competition out of the water, also don’t be fooled by the version of it in a well known UK Drug/Chemist it is not the same at all, it’s not made in Japan (it’s made in Canada) and you will be very disappointed. In my view this is hands down the perfect sunscreen for the face!

Great item

A little goes a long way. The texture is smooth and it doesn't leave a white cast. I apply after moisturiser and I love it. When I wear make up my skin looks amazing!

The texture between liquid and gel. It easy to apply and didn't felt sticking.

This is a really nice lightweight suncream, it soaks in quickly. I find it perfect to wear underneath foundation. Highly recommend

Magic in a tube and such reasonable price! Love it.

After discovering this moisturiser I never use anything else now

As a very fair skinned woman of a certain age, this is my go to sunscreen. None greasy, absorbs well, works brilliantly under makeup - what's not to like?
