In the field of sunscreen, the well-received brand has to mention Shiseido's professional sunscreen brand Anessa. Shiseido, which launched its first sunscreen as early as 1923 and later pioneered the use of SPF and PA labels to indicate the effectiveness of protection, has become a benchmark for the development of Japanese sunscreen products. Since its launch in 1992, Anessa products have been the sales champion of sunscreen cosmetics in Japan for many consecutive years, and have a good reputation in the sunscreen industry.
 
Anessa currently offers two types of sunscreens for children, both in blue bottles: babycare sunscreen and essence UV sunscreen mild milk for sensitive skin.
 
Babycare Sunscreen is a pure physical sunscreen specially launched by ANGESA for infants and young children, using zinc oxide + titanium dioxide as a physical sunscreen. Physical sunscreen uses reflection and other methods to fight against UVA and UVB, compared with chemical sunscreens, lightfast and stable and not easy to irritate the skin, compared with adult sunscreen, this product removes alcohol and fragrances, much milder, although it is a pure physical sunscreen, nano particle technology retains the UVA and UVB full-range sunscreen of zinc oxide, and also avoids the thick white feeling caused by high concentration of zinc oxide, so the texture is not heavy, easy to apply, the skin feels refreshing, and the film forming speed is fast.
 
Due to the addition of hyaluronic acid, vitamin E and other moisturizing ingredients, the texture of the sunscreen is moisturizing, and it will not be dried and rubbed when applied, and the sun protection index is SPF34/PA. For children, the daily protection of the SPF value of about 30 is enough, because the larger the SPF index, the burden on the skin will also increase, but it is recommended to choose products with a higher sun protection factor when exercising outdoors for a long time, because the sunscreen does not have a waterproof function, suitable for daily shopping or walking, etc., the price of 25ml is 168 yuan.
 
Previously, the blue line of Anessa was for children, and the new essence UV sunscreen mild milk for sensitive skin launched in 2018 is called the Sensitive Skin Blue Bottle, the bottle is lighter blue, known as the sensitive skin and children's use, the formula is basically the same as the previous Sensitive Skin White Bottle, and the sun protection factor is SPF35/PA. In addition to zinc oxide, Uvinul T150, Uvinul A Plus, and Tinosorb S are added to achieve the effect of protecting the whole range of UVA and UVB, with strong stability and large molecular weight, which is not easy to be absorbed or irritated by the skin.
 
In terms of skin feel, the sensitive skin blue bottle has almost no whitening due to the reduced content of zinc oxide, but more emollients are added, and the oiliness is stronger than that of the original small blue bottle, and the film-forming speed is slower. The new version of the sensitive skin blue bottle has added a water-resistant design, with 40-minute water resistance, which is more suitable for outdoor sports such as water parks or seaside play, and the price of 60ml is 198 yuan.
 
If you are using it in daily activities, it is recommended that children choose the original blue bottle of pure physical sunscreen, which has no water-resistant design and is easier to clean, because the better the water-resistant sunscreen, the more difficult it is to clean. If you're playing water sports or using it in winter, or if your child's skin is dry, opt for a water-resistant and oily Blue Bottle for Sensitive Skin.
 
To ensure a good sunscreen effect, the premise is that consumers must master the correct way to use it, otherwise no matter how high-quality sunscreen products are, they will not achieve the expected effect. Some people think that sunscreen needs to be applied 15-30 minutes in advance to stabilize the film, or to avoid immediately entering the water to damage the film surface and weaken the waterproof effect, but modern sunscreen products generally form a film quickly, and in fact, you can go out after the film. When using sunscreen, it is recommended to apply the sunscreen in an adequate amount and evenly, reapply it about every two hours, and reapply it more often if you are swimming or sweating a lot. Nowadays, a large proportion of sunscreens are claimed to be water resistant, which can delay their dissolution in water, but the water resistance time mark is only a theoretical effect, and the actual process will be affected by various factors, so it is still very necessary to reapply in time.
