Balea UV Protection Fluid

Honestly, we all need to use sunscreen because only then can we look young forever. All jokes aside, sunscreen is absolutely important because we do not want any skin damage. I am always looking for a good sunscreen. I have a sunscreen I love, but there is also enough sun to top up and throw a sunscreen in your bag.

What Balea says
Balea Beauty Expert Fluid UV Protection offers effective care with concentrated ingredients, optimally tailored to the needs of the skin.

UVA and UVB filters protect against light-induced skin ageing and light-induced skin irritation in the form of sunburn, thus offering optimal protection. The use of SPF products can prevent the formation of pigment spots. UVA RAYS penetrate deep into the skin layers and thus contribute to faster skin ageing. UVB RAYS cause short-term damage such as sunburn and are mainly responsible for tanning the skin. HYALURONIC ACID penetrates several layers of the skin and effectively hydrates it.

The HYDRO COMPLEX – consisting of the plant-based active ingredient MULTIMOIST CLR™ – hydrates the skin in the short and long term. VITAMIN E is known for its antioxidant and nourishing properties and can prevent premature light-induced skin ageing. The light, non-greasy formula with SPF50, 3-FOLD HYALURONIC ACID, 1% VITAMIN E and 3% HYDRO COMPLEX protects the skin from negative sun exposure. It provides long-lasting moisture* and leaves the skin feeling nourished. Read more here.

My Thoughts
It’s very nice. It sits nicely on my skin and does not leave a white layer. It also does not smell like much of anything. I have another face cream/sunscreen that I like more and therefore reach for more often, but this is a really great budget-friendly option. It’s not thick and does not break me out.

I also think it works well on your shoulders and decolletage, which we shouldn’t forget when applying sunscreen.
