Bioré UV Aqua Rich Facial Moisturizer SPF 50 — 1.7 oz, Oil-Free Hydrating Primer with Hyaluronic Acid

Designed from Biore Japan’s water-based sunscreen expertise, this daily facial lotion blends sun protection and skincare in one fast-absorbing formula. It’s oil-free, non-comedogenic, and formulated to disappear on all skin tones while delivering hyaluronic acid for visible moisture. The texture is feather-light so it layers easily under makeup and won’t pill, making it a practical everyday choice for those who want efficient UV defense without heaviness.

How does this product protect skin while staying lightweight?

Biore UV Aqua Rich uses a water-based vehicle that spreads thinly and absorbs quickly, enabling SPF 50 broad-spectrum coverage without a thick residue. The formula avoids common heavy emollients so it feels barely there while still defending against UVA and UVB rays.

• Broad-spectrum SPF 50 for daily UV defense
• Feather-light, fast-absorbing water-based texture
• No white cast—suits a wide range of skin tones

Will this moisturizer hydrate my skin all day?

The moisturizer includes hyaluronic acid, a humectant that attracts and helps retain water in the skin’s surface layers for visible hydration. Because the base is oil-free and non-comedogenic, it provides moisture without clogging pores or leaving a greasy finish.

• Hyaluronic acid delivers surface hydration and a plumped appearance
• Oil-free formulation minimizes shine and pore congestion
• Dermatologist-tested for compatibility with sensitive skin

Can I use Biore Aqua Rich as a primer under makeup?

Yes—this product doubles as a makeup primer by creating a smooth, hydrated canvas that promotes even foundation application. Its quick-absorbing, non-pilling texture reduces streaking and helps makeup adhere better without altering color or finish.

• Smooths skin to reduce foundation pilling and streaking
• Lightweight base helps makeup apply evenly
• Instant-absorbing for fast morning routines

Is the formula reef-safe and suitable for sensitive skin?

The formula is free of oxybenzone and octinoxate, ingredients often restricted for marine environments, and is designed for sensitive skin. It’s vegan-friendly and formulated to avoid common pore-clogging ingredients, though all skin is different—patch testing is recommended if you are reactive to new products.

• Oxybenzone- and octinoxate-free
• Vegan-friendly and dermatologist-tested
• Non-comedogenic and oil-free for sensitive or acne-prone skin
