Pros
This sunscreen has been my go-to and holy grail sunscreen...(but it's currently discontinued) I've tried various sunscreens without any harmful ingredients or pore-clogging components, but strangely, I would get small bumps or whiteheads on my skin. Uniquely, this sunscreen didn't cause any breakouts at all, and even when I applied it thickly, it didn't feel sticky or suffocating in the least! There is some white cast, but as someone who only uses sunscreen for skin makeup, the white cast is just right. However, it lacks coverage, so a concealer is a must for dark circles.
Cons
It said 'waterproof' on the back, but it doesn't seem to be at all..Over time, it gets oily on my face + mask moisture causes it to slide and break down..But it's still good to reapply since it doesn't clog pores and isn't stuffy This is truly my holy grail sunscreen, so why did they have to discontinue it?!

Pros
I've been using the same product for 3 bottles now, as recommended by an Olive Young employee. It doesn't have much of a scent and is hygienic to use since it's a squeeze-type. It whitens my skin to an appropriate degree and doesn't cause any breakouts, so I'm satisfied with it. The amount is also manageable.
Cons
After application, it seems to give a glossy finish...? I did like that it's a dry formula, but the tightness goes away and there's a bit of an oily feeling, though not to the point of excess. And the glossy, oily look requires blotting paper. My makeup also seems to slide off a bit, and my flaky skin is still noticeable.
Tip
There seem to be many alternatives to replace this sunscreen.

Pros
The advantage is that the ingredients are gentle. That's an obvious point, but it also has good UV protection.
Cons
It's quite oily... It's shiny and greasy. When I apply this and do my makeup, it cakes up.

Pros
Right after application, it spreads evenly like applying lotion and feels moisturized.
Cons
After applying foundation on top, about an hour later, when I look in the mirror, it hasn't absorbed at all and just sits there, peeling off. I should just apply it to the back of my hand.

Pros
I'm not sure about much else, but I know that sunscreen with a high SPF is good.
Cons
Since I have oily skin, applying makeup before moisturizing makes my makeup look cakey and greasy.

Pros
It glides on smoothly and has great spreadability! I love Avène products, so I purchased this.
Cons
First of all, the price is on the expensive side... The nib is always dried out when I use it like a pen with ink. It's greasy (not suitable for oily skin!) and I always end up with a cakey layer when I apply it.

Pros
The UV protection seems to work well. Other than that, not so much...
Cons
The spreadability is also quite stiff, and it cakes up when you apply makeup on top of it. Plus, it seems to have a lot of oil or something like that... Using this makes little bumps appear on my skin :(

Pros
Well, since the sun protection factor is good, the UV protection should be effective. Is that about the only advantage?
Cons
When applying it, it stings, has an odd fragrance, and feels sticky. Plus, it leaves a greasy residue and cakes up when I put on makeup... It's hardly worth a single star.

Pros
It's definitely the blocking effect. My friend tested it at the beach, and the difference between the area where it was applied and the area where it wasn't was quite noticeable.
Cons
It's a bit heavy, and even after exfoliating, it still slides off. It's less likely to slide off if you apply a layer of cream first. There's also some white cast.

Pros
I've used this product more than 5 times. Even though I have sensitive skin, I had no allergic reactions and it worked well for me.
Cons
When I apply and do my makeup, the foundation tends to slide off a bit.
