I am proud to say, that in spite of my frequent bouts of laziness, I almost never leave the house without wearing sunscreen on my face. In addition to my obsession with keeping a fair complexion, exposure to UV rays is the number 1 contributing factor to premature ageing – which makes it my number 1 enemy 
As this has been in my daily skincare routine since my mid-20′s, it has been imperative that my sunscreen feels comfortable on my skin in every way: no greasiness, no ghosting (not leaving a white cast) and no sunscreen smell (personal pet peeve).
The Bioré UV SPF 50+ Aqua Rich Watery Mousse ticks all the boxes, plus more!
What they say:
- Contains unique Aqua Micro Capsule with UV block ingredient to provide superior SPF 50+/PA+++ protection while keeping skin refreshed.
- Enriched with Hyaluronic Acid & citrus essence to hydrate and soften skin.
- Water-based texture makes it easy to spread onto skin and is instantly absorbed.
- Suitable to be used on face.
Ingredients:
My Experience:
The texture is a slight whipped lotion, which is a good thing as I think a true mousse would not provide enough sun protection unless you use 10 times the amount of a regular lotion sunscreen.
You can see that this sunscreen does seem to have a slight watery appearance when applied. I find that I still need to lightly rub it in for it to fully absorb into my skin.
Once absorbed, it’s not sticky at all (YAY) and smoothes out my skin, making it a good makeup base as well (double YAY). This is a great sunscreen for oily skin ladies!
An important thing to note is that Bioré UV Aqua Rich SPF 50+ Watery Mousse has a PA+++ ranking, which means it protects against UVA as well as UVB (SPF only measures UVB). UVA rays are the rays which may cause long term skin damage and therefore age the skin.
Bioré UV Aqua Rich SPF 50+ Watery Mousse is available in Watsons, for non-Asia-residents please try reputable Ebay sellers.
