Our hundred-dollar healthy skin regimen would be meaningless if it didn’t include sunscreen. I’ve written several articles about the importance of finding one you love, including a recent blog about my top facial sunscreen picks.
Sunscreens usually aren’t all that expensive. And they’re not particularly difficult to formulate. But finding one you really like at the right price takes some thought. As with the Squalane Cleanser, though, this one was a no-brainer. I’m already madly in love with a well-formulated, effective and affordable sunscreen! It’s the Skin Aqua Super Moisture Milk SPF 50.
The cultish J-beauty formula contains a combination of mineral and chemical sunscreen filters. In addition to Zinc Oxide, this super (and I mean suuuuuper!) fluid milk also contains Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate — a chemical sunscreen active more commonly known as Octinoxate, the oldest and most common sunscreen used to protect skin against UVB rays.
Formulated without alcohol, something common to Japanese sunscreen formulas, the Skin Aqua Super Moisture Milk is a whole new level of awesome. I have never experienced a sunscreen like it — having come across it a year ago.
This Skin Aqua sunscreen is, as the name implies, as light as water. It’s literally the most watery sunscreen I’ve ever used — with a texture like an ultra-lightweight serum. Because it’s so super light, it’s really easy to spread over the skin. With an SPF 50+ and PA ++++, it’s also powered by two forms of humectant Hyaluronic Acid and Glycerin — as well as replenishing amino acids and collagen.
We got bonus skin health points in the the hundred-dollar regimen with this one. As I said previously, “it goes on like magic and just feels like it was made in some off-planet laboratory.” I didn’t have to go to Mars to get it. I got it on Amazon, illegally, for just $39 for a 3-pack or $13 apiece.
