Product Information
Full details
The Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence Sunscreen SPF 50+ is designed for individuals seeking lightweight yet powerful daily sun protection. Its key benefit is offering high SPF and PA++++ protection with a water-like texture that feels weightless, even when reapplied or layered. A potential consideration is the need for careful application to ensure even coverage due to its watery formulation. This updated 2023 version excels at preventing uneven application, doubles as a makeup base, and provides defense against dark spots and freckles, all while being removable with soap.

FAQs
Can I use this sunscreen every day?
Yes, this sunscreen is designed for daily use due to its lightweight texture and high SPF protection.
How much sunscreen should I use for my face?
A good guideline is to use approximately a nickel-sized amount for your face and neck to ensure adequate protection. Applying too little will reduce its effectiveness.
Is this sunscreen suitable for sensitive skin?
The formula is allergy tested and non-comedogenic, making it generally suitable for most skin types. However, individual reactions can vary. Patch testing is always recommended if you have very sensitive skin.
Does it leave a white cast?
No, this sunscreen is formulated to be transparent and leaves no white cast on the skin, making it suitable for all skin tones.
How do I remove this waterproof sunscreen?
Despite being super waterproof, it can be easily removed with regular soap and water or your preferred facial cleanser.
Can I apply makeup over it?
Yes, it works effectively as a makeup base. Allow the sunscreen to set for a few minutes before applying your foundation or other makeup products for a smooth finish.
What is the expiration date?
While a specific expiration date is not provided in the product description, it's generally recommended to use sunscreens within 1-2 years of opening. Check for any changes in texture, color, or scent.
Troubleshooting
Sunscreen feels sticky or pills under makeup.
Ensure you are using an appropriate amount and allow the sunscreen to fully absorb and dry before applying makeup. Using too little can also lead to pilling. Ensure your skin is properly moisturized beforehand, especially if you have dry skin.
Uneven application or white cast.
Apply the sunscreen in small dots and gently spread it outwards. Ensure all areas are covered. While this formula is designed to minimize white cast, thorough and even application is key. Reapplication might require a slightly different technique to avoid disturbing the first layer.
Skin feels slightly tight after application.
This product is primarily focused on UV protection and a light feel. If you have very dry skin, consider applying a more hydrating serum or moisturizer before the sunscreen to provide additional moisture.
Product does not seem to provide adequate protection.
Ensure you are applying enough product (about a nickel-sized amount for the face and neck). Reapply at least every two hours, and more frequently after swimming or sweating heavily. Ensure the product has not expired.
