Features
SPF50+ PA++++ Facial UV Protection: The highest SPF and PA label grades used in Japan are combined in a formula intended for the face.
30mL Two-Layer Daytime Emulsion: The bottle must be shaken until the mixing sound begins and then about five more times before application.
2-in-1 Emulsion and Makeup Base: One facial product is identified for both daytime emulsion care and use underneath makeup.
2022 Sun Dual Care Technology: Shiseido introduced the Day Serum with technology described as blocking UV while converting part of sunlight into beauty-effect light.
39 × 97 × 25mm Bottle: The compact 30mL container is approximately 39mm wide, 97mm high and 25mm deep.
Benefits
Strong Facial UV Protection Without Another Separate Step: The SPF50+ PA++++ formula works as both a daytime facial emulsion and a makeup base. That gives your morning routine one less layer while keeping high UV protection directly underneath the makeup you already planned to wear.
A Brighter Finish That Still Looks Like Skin: Light-pink pearl pigments create a natural-looking tone-up effect instead of leaving the face with a flat sunscreen appearance. The finish helps prepare the skin visually for makeup while the emulsion supplies the product’s stated UV protection.
Protection Designed Around How Sunscreen Is Actually Worn: The two-layer milk spreads across the face after morning skincare, and Shiseido instructs users to apply enough product because a thin application reduces protection. Clear preparation and removal directions make correct everyday use easier to follow.
Sunlight Technology Backed by a Century of Research: Shiseido introduced its first sunscreen in 1923 and later developed Sun Dual Care technology for this Day Serum. The formula was designed to block UV while converting a portion of light into what the company calls beauty-effect light.
How to Use
Shake thoroughly before use.
After morning skincare, place an appropriate amount in your palm.
Spread evenly over the whole face.
Remove with makeup remover at the end of the day.
Who Is This For
The Daily UV Protector: You want strong facial UV protection in your morning routine.
The Makeup-Base Minimalist: You want sunscreen and a makeup base in one step.
The Tone-Up Finish Shopper: You prefer a light-pink pearl finish.
Product Story
In 1923, Shiseido released Uviolin, its first sunscreen, decades before UV care became an everyday beauty category in Japan. That research path led to the birth of ANESSA in 1992 and, in 2022, to this 30mL Day Serum with Sun Dual Care technology. Shiseido designed it for a modern morning problem: people wanted strong facial protection without stacking a separate sunscreen, daytime emulsion and makeup base. The two-layer SPF50+ PA++++ formula brought those roles together, while its light-pink pearl finish prepared the face for makeup. A century after Uviolin, the product turned Shiseido’s long UV research into one practical morning step.
