Round Lab · Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Cream SPF50+ PA++++

The desk verdict

A moisturising SPF50+ PA++++ cream with modern UK/EU filters, birch juice and hyaluronic acid, at around £21. Choose it when you want the sunscreen to double as the last moisturising layer. It has no added parfum but does list botanical oils.

Skip this if you want a strictly fragrance-free formula with no botanical oils, a water-resistant sunscreen, or a very light fluid for oily skin.

02 / Review

What is in Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Cream SPF50+ PA++++?

Round Lab’s Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Cream is a chemical sunscreen labelled SPF50+ PA++++ on UK retailer listings. It uses four modern filters permitted in the UK and EU — Uvinul A Plus, ethylhexyl triazone, Tinosorb M and diethylhexyl butamido triazone — while birch juice, hyaluronic acid and niacinamide make it read as a moisturiser as much as a sunscreen.

Retailers describe a soft, creamy texture with no white cast. Boots and LOOKFANTASTIC publish slightly different ingredient panels — pine leaf extract versus oil, and German versus Roman chamomile — so check the pack you receive if you avoid specific botanicals.

03 / Review

Who is Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Cream SPF50+ PA++++ best for?

Normal to dry skin, or anyone who wants the sunscreen to double as the final moisturising step in the morning. Oilier skin may find a serum or fluid sunscreen easier to wear under foundation.

04 / Review

What should you check before buying?

Buy the international SPF50+ PA++++ version from an authorised UK retailer: Round Lab’s US store sells different, US-market sunscreens. No water resistance is claimed. The botanical oils mean it is not strictly fragrance-free for readers who react to essential oils.

05 / How to use it

How should you use Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Cream SPF50+ PA++++?

  1. 01Apply as the final step of morning skincare, before makeup
  2. 02Use enough to cover face, neck and ears evenly
  3. 03Reapply at least every two hours outdoors, and after swimming, sweating or towelling
  4. 04Check the botanical ingredients on your pack if you have fragrance sensitivities
