FAQ
Does Skin Aqua Super Moisture Barrier UV Gel leave a white cast?
No. The formula is a clear gel with no mineral UV filters, so there is no white cast on any skin tone. It dries to a natural finish.
Is this sunscreen waterproof?
Yes. It is formulated with a water-resistant effect, making it suitable for outdoor activities, commuting, and mild sweating. Reapply after heavy sweating or swimming.
Can I use it as a makeup base?
Yes. The lightweight gel texture provides a smooth base for foundation. Wait about a minute after application before applying makeup.
What is the difference between the 100 g and 140 g sizes?
The formula is identical. The 140 g size offers better value for regular daily users. The 100 g is convenient for travel and first-time buyers.
Is this suitable for sensitive skin?
Generally yes, though it contains Ethanol and chemical UV filters. Perform a patch test on the inner arm for 24 hours before facial use if you have reactive skin.
