L’Oreal Paris UV Perfect Aqua Essence SPF30 UVB UVA PA+++ Review
What the Company claims: L’Oréal Paris UV Perfect Aqua Essence with SPF 30 PA+++ and a PPD of 15.5, thus ensuring a high level of protection against both UVA and UVB. It is also enriched with Advanced Mexoryl XL Filters that protect against broad spectrum UVA/UVB rays, Adenosine that repairs deep skin damage and fights wrinkles, and Vitamin E that helps fight against free radicles and external stress.
Other than the expert sun protection provided by this product, it is also extremely suited to the humid Indian climate. Aqua Essence is the first product from the L’Oréal Paris UV perfect range thatis a lightweight gel composition making it feel like water when applied on the skin. It is fresh, non-greasy, non-sticky and quickly gets absorbed into the skin.
Results, Usage:
It is designed to not only provide extreme sun-protection, but also keep the skin hydrated and feeling fresh, supple and smoother. With UV Perfect Aqua Essence the protection you apply is the protection you get all day!
Ingredients:
MRP: Rs.475/- for 30ml
So, a sunscreen by L’Oreal Paris which has Mexoryl XL Filters which are supposed to be the most stable protectant against the sun, is a nice idea.
I like the easy, simple, tube packaging..it is easy to carry and travel with.
Its a white runny lotion and not water like as they claim to be..but surely easy to blend and sink in and much lighter..no blending required and no whitish cast issue here.
Also, it might be slightly rich and shiny for oily skin..you do not get the matte look with this. I love the fact that it has UVA, UVB protection and SPF30 PA+++ with a very high PPD of 15.5. Its a savior against the sun..it also helped protect the face somewhat,against tanning.
See how water like light and thin it is..
But, its slightly on the expensive side..as 30 ml would hardly last you a few weeks if used religiously everyday and you can’t think of using it on your body as you might finish it off in less than a week then! :p
And since its SPF30, you will definitely need to reapply after 3-4 hours to remain protected. Also, I am not sure of the againts brown spots and premature skin ageing claim.
Overall, I would say, I like the protection factor and that it helps against tanning and is very light with no whitish cast issue..but it definitely needs reapplication under the sun..and might not suit oily skin. I think its good to carry along and can be a ‘bag essential’ as its quite travel friendly.
