When it comes to sunscreens for the body, I find it’s a lot more convenient to have them in a spray form rather than a lotion which I need to apply and it’s time consuming to apply lotions especially on the back of my neck and my upper/lower back. I am still happily using my Sunplay Watery Cool Body Mist Sunblock SPF75 PA+++ but due to its size, I can’t bring it everywhere.
With the Mentholatum Skin Aqua UV Silky Smooth Mist SPF 50 PA+++ however, its more compact size is travel friendly. Skin Aqua UV Silky Smooth Mist SPF 50 PA+++ is imported directly from Japan. Its mist is formulated with fine Silky Powder technology that not only gives the skin a silky smooth feeling also has a sweat control feature that helps keep skin dry and comfortable.
Well I didn’t get that silky smooth feeling but I can tell you there’s no whitish cast and it doesn’t feel greasy/sticky. It doesn’t have that cool sensation like the Sunplay Watery Cool Body Mist Sunblock SPF75PA+++ though and of course the SPF level is lower. so if high SPF level is your main priority, then go for the Sunplay Watery Cool Body Mist Sunblock SPF75PA+++ .
It also contains 2 types of Hyaluronic Acid (Hyaluronic Acid & Super Hyaluronic Acid), Collagen and Amino Acids which aids in hydrating the skin and retaining moisture. It also contains broad spectrum protection against UVA & UVB harmful rays. It can be applied to any part of the body i.e the face, hair or scalp, body (arms, legs, feet when you are wearing sandals or any hard to reach places such as the back of the body). It is easily washed off using any regular cleansers or shampoo. The mist is very fine and you can definitely spray it easily on the normally hard toreach areas of the body if you were using a sunscreen lotion.
Mentholatum Skin Aqua UV Silky Smooth Mist SPF 50 PA+++ retails at RM39.90/50g.

I have never tried any spray sunblock before, I’m worried to have uneven application of the product.
