Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence

And I am back with another sunscreen post. This is not a thorough review. I just taken a lot of photos for product familiarization. And I feel like it is worth sharing as this is a great sunscreen and so let's begin.

The only English part of this is the name that says Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence and the rest are all written in Japanese which I do not understand. Sharing them here anyway for those who are interested.

Biore Japanese products among with other Japanese goods are not available in the UAE or in Middle East but easily accessible in my home country, Philippines. And Biore sold over there have English translations at the back. Unlike this.

Please be aware that all Biore sunscreens have alcohol so this can be tricky. DHL will not allow sending it to UAE due to customs restriction regarding alcohol but then I got this one from Ebay without any problems. Will the airplane going to explode if they are carrying sunscreens?

Cosme Award 2014. Don't know how the Cosme Award works but it sure can be trusted. Surely all Japanese sunscreens have different characteristics but I love them all the same. For those who are curious about the price I got it for only around 10USD and one month waiting time.

Just more photos... By the way I have a combination skin. Nose is the only oily part while the rest can be normal to dry. Our UAE winter is not extremely cold. I am sharing this because maybe those things play a part too why the sunscreen works well with me.

In this photo up on my hand is the Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence while down is the Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Gel. Even though I do not know the ingredients I have a feeling that they are the same except for the consistency. One is gel while the other one is watery.

Showing how these sunscreens are when spread. I just did not spread it properly. And I am now following the rule of teaspoon full for the whole face and re applying after a few hours.

I am a broken record whenever I describe any Japanese sunscreen. For example this Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence:

• Affordable
• Sinks in the skin easily
• Turns matte afterwards
• Moisturizing
• Blends well with other skin care products
• Blends well with other make up
• Does not ball up on the skin
• Does not leave a white cast
• Alcohol smell goes away immediately
• No greasy feeling

But of course I am not sure if it will work the same well for others. You might want to consider skin type and climate. I still have to see yet how it will work when summer comes and it becomes extremely hot over here. Especially on June to August when it feels like the country is one big oven.

I am using these Biore alternately. And these 4 sunscreens are the first purchased I had on Ebay. I cannot differentiate them from one another except maybe the Hada Labo feels like one of my moisturizing creams. So you can choose any brand and you will be just fine.

Don't know what is wrong sometimes my photos are turning up this way. That is all for today. And thanks for visiting my page.

NOW ON OTHER THINGS. I am currently and I do not know when it will end, shedding items I own. Until I reach my goal of having material possessions that would fit only on one or two luggage. So almost everyday I am writing down a Goodbye Post Series.

But even though I am shedding down my items, I bought a handful of skin care products from December to February. Well I started my Asian Skin Care Regime last 2015 but then in between there has been a stoppage. For various reasons. So this year I decided to at least give it one shot and see how it will be as the year ends.

Purchased loads of sunscreens. Purchased loads of toners and emulsions. Waiting for loads of face powders. And lots of face creams. I almost fall into the category of hoarding again. Except that I am using everything alternately and trying to figure out which one will works best. But one thing is for sure I will definitely ditch the Korean Skin Care Regime soon. All in one creams will suite well my budget and lifestyle.

I love essences but when I am using one I feel like its enough and I cant go on with emulsion and cream anymore. I love emulsions but then pairing it with essence and cream can lead to a sticky face. But my main concern upon switching with all in one cream is: the brands I have my eyes on are hard to ship in the UAE. Because they are coming from Japan.
