Would this sunscreen be good for outdoor use? I really want a good sunscreen for jogging outside.
This milk provides beautiful finish for people with oily skin living in hot/humid climate, but it smell like a shot of vodka! It also has lots of silicons.
Yup. The entire Biore UV Perfect line is targeted at young oily skin (and Japan’s summer is ultra hot and humid). Those with dry, sensitive will most likely not do well with it, but it isn’t formulated for them either.
Hello, I was curious to know how to tell if a sunscreen is made for oily skin? I have this sunscreen and I love it but I would like to find a sunscreen made for an oily skin type but one that is also an easy on easy off formula. Should I look for the phrase “matte” in your review to know if it’s suitable? I used to look for alcohol as an ingredient but their are many sunscreens with alcohol but are still too moisturizing for my skin type! 🙂
The brand almost always specifies in some way the skin type(s) the product is formulated for, so read the packaging (if you can read the language). Otherwise, do try the site’s search function.
Are you aware of if this sunscreen leaves a white cast? Thanks for your extremely helpful blog, btw. 🙂
I didn’t notice a white cast, but this would highly depends on your natural skin tone and how generous of an amount you’re using. I wrote more about it in my review here https://www.ratzillacosme.com/reviews/best-pick-biore-uv-perfect-sunscreen-line-2015-formula/
Thank you for this wonderful cosmetics guide. I would have been lost in the sea of Japanese sunscreens if not for you!
Taking into consideration the ingredients and consistencies, do you think this sunscreen would be okay paired with Biore Aqua Rich Watery Gel? In other words, I liberally apply the Aqua Rich in one layer, let it dry, and then add this UV Bright as a second layer?
Thank you!
You can definitely layer them together if you like.
Hi,
I have a combination type skin, would this or Aqua Rich be better? I have already ordered the Aqua Rich but the Bright Milk looks good as well. Any comments for the two?
I have a lot of redness (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation) and so I chose Bright Milk over the Perfect Milk, not sure if it will help in any way though.
Thank you for your site; it is awesome!
Which is better? That’s totally depends on your skin’s needs and personal preference. The entire Aqua Rich line is less drying but it’s not resistant to anything — so not suitable if your skin is going to get wet, sweaty, or oily. If your skin is on the dry side, you may find all the UV Pefect milks too drying even with a rich moisturiser underneath.
Thanks! Which one has more protection from UVA and UVB though? Aqua Rich or Perfect milk line?
They’re both rated SPF50+ PA++++, but the Aqua Rich line is formulated for normal everyday use (incidental sun) only.
Thanks, really helpful!
Yes, exactly. You will need to use a makeup remover such as cleansing oil or cleansing cream to fully remove it.
So does this mean that there will be only one Biore Face Milk instead of the two(“Bright” and “Perfect”)?
Both have been reformulated, but the Bright version is also renamed, hence the new listing here. The Perfect version’s name stays the same– see here https://www.ratzillacosme.com/sun/biore-uv-perfect-face-milk-4-plus/
Is there a a great product like this, but limits the sunscreens used to zinc and titanium (deem rec for sensitive and acne skin)? I am new to your site and in love with every single thing I’ve read so far! Your reviews are amazing. I’m Caucasian and just looked up some Asian markets near me. Thanks again for all the help!
Comparable, no. But I do like Orbis UV Cut Sunscreen On Face Beauty Light SPF34 PA+++. You can find all the UV products that use physical UV filters only here: https://www.ratzillacosme.com/ingredient/physical-uv-filters-only/
