スキンケア_女性

Here are key points to consider when choosing sunscreen based on age and purpose.

 

What should people in their 30s, 40s, and 50s look for when seeking sunscreen recommendations?

The appropriate sunscreen varies depending on age.

For adults in their 30s and beyond who are seriously concerned about age-related skin changes—such as the need for moisturization and smoother skin texture—sunscreen containing ingredients that deliver hydration and skin-refining benefits is ideal.

 

What are some recommended sunscreens for men?

Men tend to prefer unscented types that feel less sticky.

If you sweat frequently during exercise or commuting, it's best to choose a waterproof sunscreen.

 

What sunscreens are recommended for sensitive and dry skin?

For those with sensitive or dry skin, we recommend a sunscreen with a non-chemical formula and moisturizing ingredients.

Since you use it every day, you'll want to choose products with gentle ingredients.

 

Which sunscreen should I buy for full-body use?

For full-body use, we recommend the large-capacity type for its cost-effectiveness.

Especially MUJI and Nivea pump-style sunscreens are super convenient even on busy mornings.

 

What sunscreen is recommended for the beach and leisure activities?

For use at the beach, pool, or other outdoor activities, we recommend a waterproof sunscreen with high water resistance.

Choose products with SPF50+ PA++++.
