My kids are loving Bioré UV Mild Milk sunscreen – You Would Too!
Recently, I had a girly beauty conversation with some friends and was reminded the importance of putting on sunscreen. Apart from protecting our faces and skin from the harmful UV rays, it helps to prevent the proliferation of freckles and pigmentation. My friends were trying to convince me to start applying sunscreen daily. I have been hesitant to start this habit and came up with numerous excuses for it.
I mean, the sun in Singapore ain’t that bad, it’s not like Australia! And I do put on sunscreen when we go out in the sun for outdoorsy activities (think Beach, Pool, Running in the field etc) Surely my daily sedentary lifestyle does’t warrant daily sunscreen? Wrong! Sunscreen IS important as long as the sun is out. The sun rays get to us even when it’s a quick walk to the bus stop or a ride in the car. And I realise it’s important to start this habit of putting on sunscreen from young!
So I started to look for good sunscreen lotion for my kids. (and of course I started putting sunscreen on myself). When we went Perth recently, I bought a good lot of lotion there. I figured since the Aussies are so big on sunscreen, they would have a nice collection of sunscreen that’s cheap and good for the kids to use daily. I didn’t want them smelling like a beach holiday when they go to school!
Alas, it didn’t work! The lotions I bought were way TOO thick! They were unscented, but very very creamy, and this actually caused a slight skin outbreak on Nicole’s face after 3 days of applying the lotion! I was stuck, I didn’t know what the kids could use for their daily application. (I couldn’t bring myself to apply my very expensive moisturisers on them!)
You can imagine how delighted I was when I received a sample for the new Bioré UV Mild Milk, a special sunscreen for kids! Woooohooo!! And guess what? This mild and moisturising formula is very very gentle on the skin, and it gives a maximum level of protection with SPF50+/PA++++ factor! (we usually only have SPF30 for kids’ sunscreen!) According to the writeup, the Bioré UV Mild Milk is also formulated with a strong resistance to sweat, water and friction! Isn’t that perfect for kids?
The true test comes when I asked the kids to start their daily application. And they love it!! It’s easy to apply, the milky texture spreads smoothly and slides easily on. And because it has a lightweight texture, there is no sticky or oily residue on the skin after applying. (definitely no skin outbreak!) I love it that is is suitable for both the face and body!
It’s a habit to apply sunscreen daily now!
The best bit? It is so light and can be used for delicate skin, I can use it too! It is allergy tested, alcohol free, fragrance free and it’s colourless! All this, while providing maximum protection against the sun!
The new Bioré UV Mild Milk (for kids) is available at all leading pharmacies, supermarkets and hypermarkets at S$13.90.

Thanks for sharing this review. I’ve been trying to search for an ideal sun-screen for kids but there are simply too many brands in the market. Will be buying this for our upcoming trip! 😀

Visited followed and shared 🙂
My family of 4 will be using the Biore UV milk products especially my 2 and 7 years old who have sensitive skins.
My two kids will be using the Biore UV products as they need to go outdoors fir swim and cycling!
I would love to try this on my daughter. She has been applying sun block since she started Pri 1 last year!!
My two older boys swim every weekend, so I will definitely get them to use this!
Will it leave a sticky residue? You know how uncomfortable it can get if kids still have to go thru the stickiness for the rest of the day after their PE lesson.
Nope! it was really absorbed into the skin. Easy to apply and it’s a really light cream!
My 3 sons play Waterpolo and Football.. They desperately need this!
I would love to try this sun screen for my 3 boys! They desperately need a good one add they are often under the sun for soccer, swimming and school activities! Need to keep them looking good and healthy!
My kids would love to put on the sunscreen to protect them from the blazing sun recently. Hope to get one of the hampers for trial! Thanks!
My two boys will be using the Biore UV products for their outdoor activities.
Thanks for sharing this review. I am aware of the damage to our skin when exposed to prolonged sun. The UV rays can damage or kill our skin cells. The strongest UV rays are during noon when the kids are out from school. Hence I am shopping around for the best sun-screen products for my kids as well as myself . Would very much like to try the Biore UV products and believe these product would stop me from shopping further to hunt for the best in the market..
I want to win this for my 4 yr old princess! Good habits should start young,especially with all the sunny days in Singapore

I’ve been looking for sunscreen for kids but all seems very thick and I am not sure if my kids can use.
Will be using for my 2 girls.
Can you please tell me if you have also tested it out? I am looking for a alcohol free sunscreen that is not sticky, shiny and doesn’t peel of under makeup.
Best regards
