About this product
Canmake is the cult Japanese drugstore brand from Ida Laboratories, loved across Asia for prestige-level formulas at friendly prices. The Mermaid Skin Gel UV is its hero sunscreen: a water-based gel with the highest-grade SPF50+ PA++++ rating, packed with over 85% beauty-essence ingredients like hyaluronic acid and ceramide. For the Philippines' hot, humid climate it is a daily essential — the lightweight gel bursts cool on contact, never feels heavy or greasy under the sun, and the Clear 01 shade leaves zero white cast on tan to morena skin tones. It works three ways in one step after cleansing: skincare, a hydrating makeup base, and reliable UV protection. Affordable, soap-removable, and fragrance- and alcohol-free, it is sun care that fits everyday Manila life.
How to use
- After cleansing and your usual skincare, shake gently and squeeze out an ample amount.
- Smooth evenly over the face and any exposed areas of the body — apply generously, since a thin layer lowers the protection you get.
- Use it alone as a moisturizing UV base, or layer your foundation or makeup on top as a smoothing primer.
- Reapply every 2 to 3 hours, and again after sweating heavily, swimming, or wiping skin with a towel.
- When worn on its own, rinse off at the end of the day with regular facial soap or cleanser.
Ingredients
- Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate — UVB filter that shields skin from burning rays under the SPF50+ rating
- Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate — long-wave UVA filter that helps guard against tanning and photo-ageing (PA++++)
- Zinc Oxide — mineral UV blocker giving broad-spectrum cover with a gentle, low-irritation profile
- Titanium Dioxide — mineral filter that reflects UV while keeping the gel clear with no white cast on Shade 01
- Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine — high-stability filter that rounds out broad-spectrum UVA/UVB defence
- Sodium Hyaluronate — moisture-binding humectant that holds water in skin for a dewy, plumped finish in humid heat
- Glucosyl Ceramide — barrier-support ceramide that helps keep skin soft and comfortable under sun exposure
- Coix Lacryma-Jobi (Job's Tears) Seed Extract — botanical conditioning extract for smooth, refreshed-feeling skin
- Morus Alba Root Extract — plant extract traditionally used to support a brighter, more even-looking complexion
FAQ
Will the Clear 01 shade leave a white cast on morena skin?
No. Shade 01 Clear is transparent and blends invisibly, so it suits all Filipino skin tones without any ashy or white film.
Is it sweat- and humidity-friendly for daily Philippine weather?
Yes. The water-based gel feels light and refreshing in heat and humidity, though for all-day outdoor exposure you should still reapply every 2 to 3 hours.
Can I wear makeup over it?
Absolutely. It doubles as a hydrating makeup base — apply your foundation or BB cream right on top for a smooth finish.
Do I need a special makeup remover to take it off?
No. When used on its own it washes off with ordinary facial soap or cleanser; remove any layered makeup with your usual cleanser too.
