L'Oreal Paris UV Perfect Aqua Essence with SPF 30
It doesn't matter which season of the year you are in, you need to take well care of your skin under the sun. In summers, the sun becomes even harsher on your delicate skin and this fact makes it really important to choose the sunscreen that is perfect for you. I got a chance to try this sunscreen from L'Oreal Paris in past few weeks, and below goes my experience with the same.My experience with L'Oreal Paris UV Perfect Aqua Essence with SPF 30
L'Oreal Paris UV Perfect Aqua Essence comes in a nice sleek bottle with a screw-open lid. It has a small pointed opening to get the product out, which is good as the product has slightly runny consistency. You need to be careful while taking it out, or you might end up with the extra product, leading to unnecessary wastage. The product is white in color with lotion like consistency, and is extremely light on application. One plus thing about L'Oreal Paris UV Perfect Aqua Essence is that it doesn't leave any whitish cast on application and seamlessly blends into the skin. Also, it feels very light, so you can immediately put on your makeup over it, without waiting for it to get absorbed. It has slightly floral fragrance which isn't too strong or prominent after the application.
It works decently in protecting my skin under the harsh rays of sun. I usually stay indoors most of the time, but for occasional visits outside, I've used this sunscreen in past few weeks, and it did work wonderfully in keeping my skin safe from sun. My skin is super sensitive and has a tendency to start feeling burn and tan within 5 minutes of sun exposure. With L'Oreal Paris UV Perfect Aqua Essence on, I didn't feel any such problem on my skin, even though many times I had to go out on the deadliest time of the day i.e. around the noon.
On the down side, it does give a little bit of shine on my oily-combination skin, immediately after the application. I definitely feel a need to apply compact powder on my face after applying this sunscreen, otherwise my skin may remind someone of a frying pan! Though the shine isn't exactly oily or sticky kind; it is just lightly there, indicating the presence of something over my face.
So, on that note, let us have a look at some of the likes and dislikes that I've felt about L'Oreal Paris UV Perfect Aqua Essence with SPF 30:
Likes:
1) Nice handy packaging, which makes it travel friendly.
2) The lotion is very light weight, spreads easily and gets quickly absorbed into my skin.
3) It has mild floral fragrance, which isn't too bothering.
4) It comes with SPF 30 and does work well in keeping sun problems off the skin for at least 2 hours or so. I didn't try its staying power and as per general rule apply it again after 2 hours.
5) It never gave my skin any breakouts.
Dislikes:
1) It has slightly runny consistency, so you need to take out the product carefully.
2) It leaves a bit of shine on the face after application, so keep your compact powder ready to buff it off.
Overall, I find L'Oreal Paris UV Perfect Aqua Essence with SPF 30 a good sunscreen for summers. If you like more of glossy makeup looks, then this can be perfect wear for a beach or pool party. However, if you have oily-combination skin like mine, you may not like it much.
