In April 2012 (Singapore), Mentholatum Sunplay the No1 sunscreen brand in Japan released Watery Cool Sunblock and Watery Cool mist fomula with their new Patented Solarex 3 in 1 technology.

Love the cute penguin cartoon image on the bottle!

I have been wanting to try this when I saw it at Watsons and the "yellow" bottle one (In taiwan, it was labelled for sensitive skin, but Singapore, it labelled as Kid's sunscreen) ... Will get them when I finished some of my "rotating sunblock/sunscreen that I'm using NOW.

Spread out...

The texture feels rather similar to Sunplay Super Block(with SOLAREX-3) and Original version.

My thoughts after using this for 3weeks.....

• The Sunplay watery cool sunblock feel rather similar to the Sunplay Super block with SPF 130.

• Very watery easy to smooth out on the skin
• Feel minty cooling on the skin - refreshing
  [If applying around eye's areas.. please wait till it fully absorbed then open the eyes, else it would be super icy around the rim of the eyes.]
• easily absorbed into the skin
• Does feel abit oily...  more of a silky type of oilyness.
  [Feel abit less oily as compare to the Sunper block]

• Doesn't feel sticky nor stuffy on the skin

• Does leave a dewy white cast, the "white" will went away after the lotion fully absorbed

• No residues.

• Doesn't cause any skin irritation

• Didn't cause any break-out

• Quite moisturizing (but I still layer moisturizer on tope)
• Skin doesn't feel tight nor drying after wearing it for a few hours
  [Because of the minty feel, I thought this will be drying on the skin, but it doesn't!]
• Doesn't changed the formula of my base makeup when layering ontop of the sunblock
  (I apply sunblock before any skincare/base products)
• Decent sunblocking power for normal outing under

• Doesn't cause any irritation on my skin
  (didn't use this on my face)
• Doesn't have any white cast on the skin

This UV body mist spray was pretty light in texture and non sticky. when I first spray it on my arm, it feel abit wet, oily and very cooling. Once it absorbed into the skin, it won't feel oily or wet anymore. This UV body Mist abosbed really fast, so no worries about it being wet and oily at first. And the finishing was pretty nice, give my skin a pretty healthy glow and suprising that it was pretty moisturizing too.

Few months ago, I won this Liquid foundation thru Cosmopolitan Singapore Facebook page giveaway. (They ran a series of products giveaway from various brands almost everyday back in March). I won the KATE Mineral Liquid foundation in shade OC-C (this is the common shade)

I can't find the ingredients list in english for this product.

Swatches in various lighting...
This shade OC-C was like about 1 to 2 shades darker then my usual foundation shade... but on my face, it wasn't that dark (just made me look abit warm).

For your info:::
My face is way darker then my whole body... so I need a brighter foundation to even out everything. I have KATE Lasting cover liquid foundation in BR-C.. the shade match me really well!

Here's the side by side comparison of the shades.

Half face... on strong day lighting, the shade doesn't look soo obvious.. but it does cover and even out all the uneven complexion.

When the foundation set.. my face does look abit warm (tired).
(it's not the foundation fault, I just need the "right" shade- lolx)

Anyway, put the shade aside... and focus on how I feel about the foundation after using it for a couple of weeks.

• The foundation shade is buildable from sheer to light medium coverage
• Foundation feel pretty moist/watery, easy to spread around the face.
• Feels like a bbcream texture
• Doesn't feel too heavy nor cakey on the skin
• Pretty Lightweight
• Last a good 5-8hrs depend on the weather conditions. (If I stay indoor- it can last up to 8hrs)
• Doesn't cause any irritation
• Doesn't cause any break-out during the time I use this foundation.
• it has a semi matte finishing
• oil control was pretty average

Side note:
My skin has become more and more better... skin doesn't feel dry nor tight
(but do look abit dry after applying foundation)
I'm back to mild oily combination skin ^__^
My nose and forehead will start to (shine) after afew hours...

I dont look much different under bright day lighting.

[Taken with flash] With flash can see the shade look warm on me...

Review was base on my peronal experiences.
I'm not affiliated with Mentholatum nor EKmedia.

It's been awhile since my last LOTD... this time, I'm going to use JUST Make Up For Ever Aqua Shadows to create a simple Eye's look. (Without setting it with eyeshadows).

The aqua shadow feel really smooth and soft during application, easy to blend out with Q-tips, blending brush or finger. Really a fuss free and fast item to use if in a rush!!

My folds (double eyelid's fold) are really thick, the skin rubbing each others when I blink causes the shadow to creases abit.. but it's not really that visible. The crease would be gone if I use a good primer (Makeup Forever Eye prime is good enough to prevent creasing on any eyeshadows.)

I do enjoying using these Aqua Shadow pencils... was thinking about getting the matte grey or maybe the coppery one.

I donno why I look so "red" in this shot!!!!

Much better with flash ~ But the teal look abit wash off.....  (my face look so chubby in all the shots!!)

Mentholatum Sunplay Super block SPF130 PA+++

Ingredients...(click to enlarge)

Texture of the sunblock lotion was very watery and light

Thick application (before blending out)

(Above- taken with flash) (below- taken without flash)

Blended out...

This sunblock lotion was very watery, easy to blend out and doesn't feel sticky at all.

It does make face look abit pale(white) at first, but once the lotion absorbed into the skin.. it doesn't have any white cast or any color different then my original skin tone. And it give a nice moisturizing glow on my skin. Doen't cause me any break-out.

Sometimes, when I applied too much(well, there will not be "too much" when it come to sunblock, lolx), it does feel abit oily. I just lightly dap it off with tissue. And it won't feel any different when I apply primer/foundation after the sunblock lotion.

Even though this is a super waterproof formula, it doesn't feel tight or dry.

I've tried some waterproof sunblock lotion before and it just make my face feel dry and tight after I removed my makeup at the end of the day  :(

Do keep in mind that this might feel abit "oily" in textures if you have applied thick moisturizer or cream.

• The scent was sweet and citrus-y and kinda refreshing.
  (Peapea like it, lolx)

I didn't use ths on my face (I use this as body sunblock)... cos the liquid does feel oily in texture.. so I'm not risking it on my face(lolx)

Overall for both.... the sunblocking power was pretty decent :
I did not visit any park or beach lately... so I cannot say whether it will work great on long exposure under the sunny hot sun in Singapore.
So for normal morning to night outing in the city (shopping indoor + outdoor).. plus my normal foundation ontop of the sunblock.... I did not experience any sunburn nor skin darkening.
