This one seems to work well for me as a summer sunscreen. The texture is quite fluid, making it easy to spread. Interestingly, it starts to feel a bit tacky midway through application. (Pro tip: Instead of dotting it all over your face at once, apply it section by section.) Once fully applied, it feels slightly thick but adheres well to the skin. There's a bit of richness to it (yet it still feels somewhat tacky; quite unique!). It seems to provide good sun protection.
ConsThe scent isn't great. Also, in winter, if you apply makeup directly over this without a base, it can look dry and heavy due to its thickness. This might be related to how it becomes tacky during application. Unfortunately, this issue prevents me from giving it a higher rating. Another downside is that because of its fluid texture, if you store it upright as packaged and open the cap, the product spills out. I'd like to store it upside down, but it doesn't stand that way... making storage a bit inconvenient.

It's so fluid it almost runs like water.
ConsStings if it gets in your eyes and causes redness when it absorbs heat. Doesn't seem as physical sunscreen-like as expected. For sensitive skin, reapplying is frustrating due to how runny it is. Doesn't play well with other cosmetics.

I truly hope you'll trust me and give it a try. This is the sunscreen I've been searching for. 1. All the sunscreens without brightening effects were too oily, making my face look like a pearl. But this one feels like an emulsion. If you've used Cetaphil's emulsion, you'll know what I mean. I'm still using it, and while it might feel a bit rich at first, trust me, it's way less oily than other sunscreens. Plus, that initial feeling disappears after about 5 minutes when it's fully absorbed. 2. No brightening effect. 3. The amount is decent.
ConsI really can't understand why they made the packaging like this. It's so frustrating! When you open the cap, the sunscreen just bursts out. And if you squeeze it gently, it's so runny that it drips everywhere. I really hope they change the packaging... please! The price is a bit... I wonder if getting two for this price is considered a good deal?
TipOf course, if you don't control the amount, it can feel a bit rich. Review update: I decided to compare this with a sunscreen that has more brightening effects but less oil to check the oiliness. I tested them for about 30 minutes. On the left is the Tony Moly sunscreen, and on the right is Cetaphil. Surprisingly, while I expected Cetaphil to leave more oil, it seemed to absorb slightly better. Other sunscreens left oily residue on the sides!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsWell, first off, it absorbs well and there's a sense that it somewhat brightens the complexion.
ConsOh, it's completely liquid! I opened the cap without knowing and it dripped everywhere. That's strike one. Earlier I said it absorbs well, but that's because it's extremely oily. If you have oily skin, you might turn into an oil tycoon using this. I usually apply sunscreen generously, so I slathered it on, but it gave my face an unintended 'wet look' effect. I had to furiously cleanse and apply something else. That's strike two. Also, this product contains an ingredient - I can't remember the name exactly - but it's said that 'when exposed to sunlight, it may cause cancer due to ~~~'. What kind of sunscreen potentially causes cancer when exposed to sunlight? That's strike three. This product really hit the trifecta of frustrations.
TipHere's a real pro tip: you can skip all other skincare steps and just apply this, and your skin won't feel dry at all. Note: This may not apply to those with extremely dry skin.

Seems to provide effective sun protection. Doesn't cause any blemishes.
ConsIt's too runny and tends to drip, so you need to be careful when squeezing it out. Because of its liquid consistency, the opening can easily get messy. It's quite rich in oils.
TipRecommended for those who want a gentle sunscreen that's easy to apply all over the body.

Since I have freckles, I'm always sensitive to sun exposure.
ConsWhy is the texture so watery? It should probably be in a pump bottle at this point. I waste so much product as it keeps dripping everywhere. Also, it's quite pricey for a sunscreen. It's so expensive that I only want to use it on my face, but the sticky feeling makes it less than ideal for wearing under makeup.

It's gentle enough for sensitive skin too. It's convenient that it lasts long without reapplication. If you apply powder over this, you can reduce the stickiness. Using this alone does have that typical sunscreen tackiness though. Even with makeup on, it doesn't clump or pill.
ConsThe stickiness is a downside. Even after it's fully absorbed, it still feels tacky. I just apply it on my body, but for my face, I always follow up with powder before going out. It's quite runny, so it drips... The cap gets messy. Those sensitive to scents might not like it. It's fine once applied, but there's an odd smell when you first open the cap.
TipYou can get a large size at a good price during sales. It's not extremely sticky... I just personally dislike any tackiness, so I finish with powder for a matte feel.

There's some white cast, but it's similar to other organic sunscreens and fades significantly after a short while. The texture is non-sticky like sun milk, making it easy to apply. It has an oily consistency, which I love for my dry skin. Suitable for both face and body use.
ConsIt spills out every time you open the cap. The opening gets messy, requiring daily cleaning. Also, the scent is unpleasant - it's like a mix of healthy grass and medicinal smells.
