Canmake Mermaid Skin Gel UV SPF50+ PA++++ 40g is a Japanese premium cult-favorite sunscreen, created for those who dislike the heavy, oily sensation of traditional sun protection. Unlike generic sunscreens that can feel suffocating, this watery gel "bursts" upon contact with the skin, delivering a refreshing surge of moisture. Sourced freshly from Tokyo pharmacies, this authentic version is formulated to work perfectly under makeup, preventing foundation from caking or sliding. It is a hybrid formula that utilizes both chemical and physical filters to provide a high level of defense while remaining gentle enough for sensitive skin types.

Perfect for:

Those who want a weightless "barely-there" feel for daily wear.
Serving as a hydrating primer that helps makeup last longer and look more natural.
Minimizing skincare steps in the morning by combining a lotion and UV protection.
Reapplying throughout the day without disturbing your existing makeup base.

Why it’s popular in Japan: A consistent top-performer in the Japanese drugstore market, the Mermaid Skin Gel is viral for its "Water-Splash" texture. It is currently a top recommendation on @cosme for users who want to achieve a "Glass Skin" finish. It remains the top choice in Tokyo because it is one of the few high-protection sunscreens that is completely alcohol-free, making it a staple for beauty enthusiasts with dry or easily irritated skin who find other Japanese sunscreens too drying.

What you will notice after using:

A natural, dewy glow that makes the skin look healthy and luminous.
A significant improvement in the smoothness of your foundation application.
No white cast or "ghostly" appearance, even on deeper skin tones.
Skin stays hydrated and comfortable even in air-conditioned environments.

What makes it different from others: Unlike many popular Japanese sunscreens that contain high amounts of alcohol for a quick-dry finish, Canmake Mermaid Skin Gel is formulated without alcohol to preserve the skin's natural moisture. It is a "Hybrid Sunscreen," meaning it combines the invisibility of chemical filters with the stability of mineral filters. Its compact 40g tube is specifically designed to be portable, fitting easily into small purses for effortless reapplication on the go.

Hybrid UV Filters: A blend of Octinoxate and Zinc Oxide for broad-spectrum protection.
Sodium Hyaluronate: A powerful humectant that pulls moisture into the skin.
Evening Primrose & Blueberry Leaf Extract: Botanical antioxidants that soothe and protect.
Jojoba Ester: Provides a smooth, velvety finish that grips makeup effectively.
Free-from: Alcohol, Fragrance, Mineral Oil, and Parabens.

After cleansing your face, you can apply this directly as your single skincare and UV step.
Dispense an appropriate amount (about the size of two pearls) and spread it thinly over the face.
Gently pat the gel until it transforms into a watery texture and is fully absorbed.
Allow it to set for 1 minute before applying foundation or BB cream.

Pro Tip: Use it on your body as well! It is particularly great for the neck and décolletage as it won't rub off onto your clothes or leave them feeling sticky.

Is Canmake Mermaid Skin Gel UV a sunscreen or primer?
It works as both — a sunscreen with SPF50+ and a makeup base.

Does it leave a white cast?
The Clear version is colorless and does not leave noticeable white cast.

Is it suitable for oily skin?
It is lightweight, but very oily skin types may prefer a more matte sunscreen.

Is it waterproof?
It is not designed as heavy-duty waterproof sunscreen, so reapplication is important.

Can I use it daily?
Yes, it is designed for comfortable everyday use.

Canmake vs Biore Watery Essence — which should I choose?
Canmake is better as a makeup base with hydration, while Biore is lighter and more focused on outdoor UV protection.
