Product Details
✦ Omi Brotherhood Menturm — Japan
SPF50+ PA++++ that goes on like water, dries in seconds, and actually looks good on skin — rose tone-up included.
The Sun UV Essence by Menturm is one of the best-selling sunscreens in Japanese drugstores for one reason: it applies like a serum, not a sunscreen. The water-gel formula is almost weightless — it spreads easily, absorbs in under ten seconds, and leaves zero white cast. For people who have avoided daily sunscreen because of texture or finish, this is the one that changes that habit.
The Rose variant uses a warm pink tone-up pigment that neutralises dullness and gives skin a naturally flushed, healthy glow without foundation. SPF50+ PA++++ covers both UVA and UVB at the highest protection levels available — three UV filters working in combination: Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, and Polysilicone-15. Seven natural herbal extracts — Aloe Vera, Chamomile, Rose Centifolia, Peach Leaf, Luffa, Perilla, and Cucumber — protect the skin from dryness and oxidative stress under the UV formula. Tocopherol Acetate (Vitamin E) and Tocopherol (natural Vitamin E) are both present for antioxidant depth. No special cleansing required — regular soap removes it. Can be used as a makeup base. 80g. Made in Japan.
🧴 How to Use
Apply after moisturiser as the final skincare step. Spread evenly over face and neck — a small amount goes far with this formula. Use alone as a base or under powder. Reapply every 2–3 hours outdoors. Removes with regular face wash.
