Smooth application 3. Additional benefits (slight skin correction, no white cast, balanced moisture & richness) The standout feature of Cynic sunscreen is its value for money, especially compared to the generally pricey sunscreens on the market these days. You can find it at Lalavla offline stores, and online you can often snag a 1+1 deal at an even better price. It took me surprisingly long to finish both tubes! Personally, I prefer to invest more in my basic skincare routine, but for sunscreen, I believe consistent reapplication throughout the day is key, so this product was more than satisfactory. (Conclusion) While there's an abundance of high-performance sunscreens out there, I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone looking for an affordable option that doesn't compromise on quality!
Cons1. The cucumber scent might be divisive Personally, I was okay with it, but I think the cucumber fragrance could be hit or miss for some people.
TipThis product works great as a base - your foundation goes on smoothly over it!

Those who dislike white cast will likely prefer this one, as it doesn't leave any. While it might feel a bit oily for dry skin in summer, it's perfect for use in fall and winter.
ConsThe ingredients were somewhat disappointing. I'd actually recommend the newly released Cynic Super Mild Sun Essence, which is a reformulated version of this product. It's much gentler and has a better texture.
TipIt's excellent for dry skin during winter months. You can also use it under makeup without any issues.

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.Pros- Moisturizing application As it's organic, it glides on incredibly smoothly. - Minimal white cast There's barely any white cast, which is really useful when applying makeup. - Hydrating It's an excellent product for dry skin. It's moisturizing with just the right amount of richness, so it feels great when applied liberally. - Price Getting this quality sunscreen in a 1+1 deal makes an already good price even more of a bargain. It's perfect for applying generously without worrying about cost.
Cons- Eye irritation Shortly after application, when sweating, it caused eye stinging. It was quite alarming when tears started streaming down during normal daily activities. - Oiliness I mainly used it during summer, and not long after application, my skin became extremely greasy all over, even though I don't have oily skin. (My makeup was sliding off...)
TipNot recommended for oily skin types. Other skin types might also struggle with it during summer.

No concerning ingredients according to Hwahae. Small and lightweight, making it perfect for on-the-go. There's a subtle scent, but it's not overpowering. The emulsion-like texture makes it easy to apply. No stickiness, dead skin cell emphasis, or tightness after application. No white cast. Easy to cleanse off (even though it's not makeup, some sunscreens require thorough cleansing, but this one seems to come off easily with just foam cleanser). The combination of being non-sticky, leaving no white cast, and being easy to remove makes it great for body use too.
ConsThe eye irritation and easy removal in water seem to be drawbacks when applying to the face. After a while, it tends to sting the eyes. Though it gets better after tearing up and wiping, it's annoying every time it happens... and I worry if it's bad for the eyes. Also, even if you don't apply it to your lips, when you drink water, the sunscreen around your mouth seems to dissolve, leaving a sunscreen taste. It really does wash off easily with water. Additionally, being a chemical sunscreen, it needs to be applied 20-30 minutes before sun exposure for full protection. It might be a bit harsh for super sensitive skin.
TipIt has the typical pros and cons of a chemical sunscreen. I'd add that when I bought it, the price was really affordable, which made it seem like a great deal for the quality (I purchased it last summer online for about $3.40 each). It's a shame it's being discontinued.

ConsWhen I used it frequently, I experienced blemishes. So now I'm using the remaining sunscreen on my body.

The absorption is excellent, and it doesn't leave any white cast.
ConsI wouldn't recommend it for the face. It severely irritates the eyes, and after a while, it becomes quite oily - an unavoidable characteristic of some sunscreens.

It glides on easily like an emulsion without leaving any white cast. Stays hydrated without feeling greasy even after hours. Bought it as a 1+1 deal and gave one to a friend - it suits her well too!
ConsIt stings my eyes when I use this alone. My friend says it's fine for her, but... Even when I avoid the eye area, my eyes still turn red after a while.

ConsI'm completely satisfied using this product, so I don't have any complaints at all.
