“Skin Aqua UV Moisture Milk”
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
arginine, glycerin.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: arginine, dimethicone.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: ceramide np

“Effective sun protection with SPF50+, PA++++ Watery Capsule provides optimal and durable sun protection on the skin thanks to sun protection particles enclosed in a water film to help UVA/UVB multi-dimensional reflection , causes darkening, freckles, wrinkles, burning of the skin, sunburn,... Ceramide Boost strengthens the skin protection barrier, limits water loss when the skin is exposed to the sun, maintains optimal moisture & protects the skin from environmental damage to help keep the skin moist and healthy.”
This product does not contain ingredients that are able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles or help with skin elasticity, but it can improve the look of the skin temporarily through moisturization. Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.

I bought this in Vietnam and it’s one of the best I’ve tried. The texture is very watery. It’s hydrating and mattifying leaves a very natural finish feels like your skin but better.

Product summary
Judging from the ingredient list, "Sunplay - Skin Aqua UV Moisture Milk" works well for improving skin hydration To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Sunplay - Skin Aqua UV Moisture Milk ticks this box. Humectants in this product (arginine, glycerin, hydrolyzed collagen, sodium hyaluronate and butylene glycol) help to increase the water content in the upper layer of the skin. (These ingredients do so by "capturing" water molecules from the outside air or from within the deeper layers of the skin). Ceramide np, hydrolyzed collagen, arginine, dimethicone and cyclopentasiloxane in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.
Ingredient callouts
- As a plus, this moisturizer also contains Ceramides (ceramide np 0.50% - 0.75%). Ceramides are a type of lipids that our skin produces itself. They are a building block of the skin's barrier. Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or extracted from plants. They work well for softening the skin surface and "patch holes" in the skin's barrier.
