Kanebo Sala Milky Gel UV SPF29 PA++

I mentioned before that I ordered quite a bunch of different sun lotions back in spring and slowly getting around to trying some of them.


The prettiest one I received is definitely the one from Kanebo Sala which comes in a really sweet white and pink bottle. 
The 80g bottle of this SPF29 PA++ sun protection gel will set you back around 1000 Yen in Japan or a few bucks more when buying from eBay.


The Milky Gel UV has been recently adde to the Sala lineup if I am informed correctly and is a sun protection product for the face and also serves as a makeup base.

Like all products from Sala this is fragranced with a nice fresh citrus-floral scent. It´s light and doesn´t linger and doesn´t seem to cause any irritations to my skin.


This product has a light gel texture with a high content of water as it seems. It´s not really sticky and leaves my skin very soft and smooth. 
This has a soft pearl finish, in bright light one can also detect a few glitters but I´d not call it a disco-ball effect hehe =D


This makes a great makeup base as it lets my foundation glide on nicely but it´s also pretty on its own as it gives this soft pearl sheen to my skin.

I am sorry but I don´t know which ingredients are used for the sun protection but overall I quite like this products!
  
PS Blogger´s new editor sucks! All pics are set on center but they show at the left side =/ I hope it´s just a bug and will be fixe soon!

    That does look pretty on your skin.

    I didn't have any problems with the new blogger last night when I posted. My pics are centered so perhaps they are still working out some bugs.

    OOO I'm so glad you reviewed this one. I've been looking at it for a long time but was really hesitant because I knew nothing about the texture and irritancy factor.
    Gonna put this on my "to-get' list now :)
