Bikan Sun Cream Review from TOCOO MALL

Konnichiwa! Friends, I would like to introduce you to TOCOO MALL! They are based in Tokyo and founded in 1998. They already have over a million overseas members/ customers. It's amazing as they provide all-authentic Japanese products!!! How cool is that? You don't have to worry of exorbitant fees. Speaking of which, I encountered something new through TOCOO MALL, the Japanese beauty brand - BIKAN!

How to use:

Take a pearl size and apply to 5 points of face (forehead, nose tip, both cheeks, chin), and gently spread from the inside towards the outside.

Experience:

Left side is massaged with Bikan sun cream and became lighter.

• The package arrived in excellent condition, securely wrapped.
• This is a sun cream for adults, ideal for every day use.
• Has a simple and elegant blue / white design in carton with gold emblem and plastic bottle.
• Has a delicate fragrance.
• Consistency is just right - not too thick, not watery.
• Finish is dewy, yet I do not feel like a major greaseball at the end of the day.
• Gives a radiant glow and improved skin quality with continuous use.
• Can be combined with lipstick to make a blush, or foundation to fine tune its shade.

I find that it can blend with almost anything, except for serum (maybe because it is oily).

Unlike other sunscreens I used before, I love that Bikan doesn't sting my eyes when I sweat. Also, it is well-tolerated by my sensitive, acne-prone skin - it doesn't clog my pores.

Left is with Bikan sun cream, right is bare skin. The side with Bikan is fairer and it was able to hide some minor imperfections.

Overall, I recommend this high quality Japan made product! Bikan is a must since we need to use sun cream daily to protect against UV light and enlarged pores.
