Streszczenie po polsku pod tekstem angielskim.


Paul together with Joe?

What the heck? The mention lonely would e'er build me rest away from this item brand. 

My personal history amongst Pauls together with Joes did non bode well.

I've met a few Pauls inwards my life together with they were all assholes. And the only Joe that crossed my path turned out to live a scam creative soul together with but an all unopen to creepy guy.

Enter Paul & Joe Beaute, which despite its trailer trash quasi-French mention together with woman soul French origins, is truly a Japanese cosmetic brand. With a mention similar Paul together with Joe it sounds similar it should live selling deodorant for truck drivers inwards the Midwest, or something. But no... Add a fancy French sounding "beaute" to the name, throw inwards cute visuals designed to appeal to kawaii-obsessed women, add together cats to the mix, together with you lot receive got a successful mid-range cosmetic brand.

CATS???

You heard me right.

Just await at this 15th anniversary makeup collection.

This is what finally roped me in.

I went inwards looking for cats. I left amongst a novel sunscreen. And together with thus I got some other sun-something gifted to me (thank you lot Ms Y!) for expert measure.

So, without whatever farther ado, allow me innovate today's, sadly cat-free, contestant.

Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++

It's the 1 on the left.

Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ was launched inwards Nihon on Apr 7, 2017 together with it's the brand's best Sun protection offered inside its collection to date. Or somesuch.

This is what Paul & Joe says close Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ :

So yeah, I wanted cats. Instead I got this.

It's been almost three weeks together with I retrieve it's long plenty to acquaint my thoughts.

Let's locomote on it short. 

I similar the thought of this sunscreen. And the texture. 

I loathe everything else.

First, ohmyfreakingod, the smell. The scent of this affair makes your eyes H2O together with your olfactory organ drip. It tin likewise build your domestic pets desire to commit vehement acts of crazed destruction. 

The build calls it "sunshine bouquet" amongst fresh fragrance of bergamot together with lemon together with whatever else.

I telephone telephone it low-end trailer trash perfume. It smells similar a modest town shopping mall inwards the Midwest. And it lasts. And lasts. And lasts... It lasts pretty much all solar daytime until you lot launder it off. 

This is in all probability the longest lasting fragrance inwards a sunscreen that I receive got ever experienced. And trust me, I've experienced plenty of sunscreens.

It seems that Paul & Joe didn't quite know what to telephone telephone this sunscreen. Because, let's human face upwardly it, the Japanese sunscreen marketplace is real crowded. We receive got literally everything you lot tin retrieve of. And in all probability a few things you lot can't. It's a real competitive scene together with what's a build to do inwards club to stand upwardly out together with build a statement?

They should receive got gone amongst cats, if you lot inquire me.

Instead they called this affair "gel milk".

Yep. It's a gel. It's a milk. It's a gel milk, you lot people.

But, equally it ordinarily happens inwards such cases, Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ is neither.

Here, accept a look.

It feels to a greater extent than creamy than gely together with definitely non milky. It does plough into something resembling watery gel when applied together with spread out on the skin. However, fifty-fifty together with thus the skinfeel is of a cream, non a gel. And definitely non of milk.

Having said that, I truly similar the texture. It's creamy but light, together with I truly prefer creamy products.

As you lot tin see, the underground is quite big. Considering the park size of Japanese sunscreens (around xxx grams), this affair is double the size at 75 grams internet weight.

The price? 2800 yen addition tax, which comes to 3024 yen total.

Sounds expensive, until you lot do a piffling math.

This underground is 75 grams. 

So here, nosotros basically larn xxx grams for 1120 yen pre-tax. Suddenly, nosotros are firmly inwards the lower destination drugstore category. 

The explanation for it is real simple. The ingredients are real basic together with no-frills.

Here, accept a look.

Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ constituent list:

Looks similar your garden-variety no-name basic Japanese sunscreen, doesn't it?

I plugged them into CosDNA for your reading pleasance - link.

Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ is a chemic sunscreen amongst the next UV absorbers:

• Octinoxate
• Uvinul Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 Plus
• Tinosorb S
• and Parsol SLX.

It covers the whole gain of UVA1 together with UVA2 together with UVB. Nothing to complain close here.

And equally most Japanese chemic sunscreens, it likewise contains alcohol (ethanol).

I am pretty certain that the vehement "fresh" fragrance is at that spot alone to mask the stench of ethanol. The alcohol tin live felt on the skin, no dubiousness close it. But, different the fragrance, it evaporates pretty quickly. And fifty-fifty though I ordinarily dislike formulations amongst ethanol equally the minute ingredient, this 1 does non bother my skin. At to the lowest degree it did non bother me on the days when I truly managed to article of apparel this this affair for the whole day. 

Testing Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ was an do inwards self control. I had to larn my hear into that zen nation of higher consciousness to live able to ignore the stench. I mean, the smell. I mean, the fresh bouquet fragrance. I managed to gain it past times non taking my hay fever medication together with becoming a rima oris breather. No worries, I wore a mask inwards public.

Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ swatches:

Despite its lovely texture together with the company's assurances of moisturizing properties, it isn't moisturizing at all. It absorbs to a slight sheen, which disappears later an hour, or thus (if worn without makeup). The feeling of freshness lasts a dyad of hours at the most. I suppose it would operate bang-up for oily or normal skin, but for dry out pare it's a no go.

Here is what the leaflet that was inwards the box says:

All standard, garden-variety sunscreen claims. No bells together with whistles here.

Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ does seem to operate equally a makeup base, but together with thus again, I don't article of apparel that much makeup. 

I couldn't uncovering whatever claims of sweat- or sebum- or waterproofness anywhere on the box or the leaflet.

Time to summarize.

Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ pros:

- texture

- stable, total UV protection

- skinfeel

- cost per gram (yes, I am putting it inwards the "drugstore category")

Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ cons:

- fragrance

- smell

- stench

- ugh, the stink of this thing

- everything else.

And that concludes my review of Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++.

Now let's speedily accept a await at this express edition abomination - Paul & Joe Suncream.

Ms Y got it for me, thus I would receive got the whole set. I would receive got never bought it on my own, because I but can't figure out the role of a "suncream". 

Sorry, but only a total idiot thinks that tanning tin live prophylactic together with is expert for our skin.

There is no such affair equally "safe tan". 

Tan agency your pare is burning. Tan agency pare damage.  There is absolutely nada "perfect" close it.

The overpowering scent nosotros all know together with love hate is yet there.

The consistency is indeed creamy.

But the best part? It is a lot to a greater extent than moisturizing than its SPF50+ brother. Here, nosotros receive got alcohol farther downward the constituent list. 

I'm using Paul & Joe Suncream equally a mitt cream. My hands are far plenty from my olfactory organ that the odor doesn't slay me. 

So at that spot you lot receive got it.

Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ together with Paul & Joe Suncream.

Final verdict? 

Meh. You powerfulness equally good purchase Biore Watery Essence. Or a dyad of frappuccinos.




Streszczenie po polsku...

Poniewaz kosmetyki Paul & Joe sa dostepne w wielu krajach Europy, dodaje opinie po polsku.

Po pierwsze, ta nazwa. Gdyby jakas polska firma kosmetyczna nazwala sie "Pawel i Jozek" i zaczela sprzedawac wcale nietanie kosmetyki, to nie bardzo moge sobie wyobrazic jak zostalaby przyjeta przez publike.
Nazwa Paul & Joe mnie odrzuca, ale skoro mialam okazje sprobowac Paul & Joe Sunday Protection Gel Milk SPF50+ PA++++ , to nie chcialam tej szansy zmarnowac. Szczegolnie, ze filtry SPF wszelakie to moja wielka milosc.

No i jak wyszlo nam z Pawelkiem i Jozkiem? Ano, niezbyt dobrze.
Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 wszystko przez okropny perfumowy zapach tego specyfiku. On nie pachnie. On po prostu zajezdza tanimi perfumami jak pani od katechizmu na odpuscie.
Sam filtr ma kremowa konsystencje (prosze nie wierzyc slowom "gel milk", bo to nie jest ani zel ani mleczko), nie bieli, ladnie sie wchlania, na skorze zachowuje sie wysmienicie, nadaje sie pod makijaz i oferuje pelna ochrone UV (UVA1, UVA2 oraz UVB).
Nie jest nawilzajacy, wiec skory suche nie beda larn lubialy. Natomiast normalne, mieszane w kierunku tlustych nie powinny miec z nim problemow.

Jest to filtr chemiczny i niestety ma etanol (alkohol) na drugim miejscu w skladzie.
Jak na filtr japonski (tak, jest on produkowany w Japonii), tubka jest gigantyczna, bo zawiera az 75 gramow produktu. Cena per gram jest przecietna jak na warunki japonskie.
Jesli ktos nie jest wrazliwy na zapachy i nie przeszkadza mu fakt, ze bedzie zalatywal wonnym bukietem rodem z jarmarku, to prosze bardzo, bedzie z Pawelka i Jozka bardzo zadowolony. Biale kozaczki do kompletu i pelen szyk.
