Pros
The product raised doubts about clean beauty. The ingredients are not that great, but even after wearing it for 8-10 hours, there are no breakouts. After applying, the skin looks incredibly good. However, if you apply too much, it can become cakey and leave fingerprints when touched. It also has a bit of an oily feel, so it's best to apply it thinly.
Cons
The formula seems to be something that cannot be layered. Under the bright sunlight, it seems necessary to mix it with an organic sunscreen or apply another mineral sunscreen on top of it.
Tip
Be sure to shake it well before use. For the base, use products that have moisture but no oily feel.

Pros
This sunscreen is great for Ji-seong. It's hard to fill up 20 characters.
Cons
Dry skin can also be dry. It's really hard to fill up the character count.

Pros
The sun protection is definitely strong, which is great. I used it before the rainy season when checking the sun, and it didn't cause any sunburns, which was nice. As someone who is skeptical of domestic sunscreens, I was looking for a mineral sunscreen among foreign products, but it's surprisingly hard to find mineral sunscreens with PA++++. This mineral sunscreen is not drying at all. The oily feel makes it easy to wash off compared to other mineral sunscreen products. I think it will be suitable for use even in the winter.
Cons
These days, it's hard to find other mineral sunscreen products with such severe white cast, but this product has a very severe white cast. It makes me doubt how other products with SPF50/PA++++ managed to achieve those numbers, the white cast is that severe. I understand that it's an inevitable part of the strong protection. And since mineral sunscreen ingredients are inevitably drying, they've made this one very oily to compensate for that. So there's quite a bit of greasiness and transfer. The texture and white cast aren't to my liking, so I'll probably look for another mineral sunscreen product and compromise with PA+++. But among the foreign products that are easily available, this seems to be the only one with PA++++, so it's a bit of a dilemma. 4 stars!
Tip
I purchased this from a department store website during a 1+1 promotion, but the timing has to be right. Honestly, around 50,000 won per bottle is a bit steep...

Pros
It's great because it's non-irritating for acne-prone skin, provides good sun protection, and applies smoothly and evenly.
Cons
While the mineral sunscreen is good, the coverage is lacking, so touch-ups are needed.

This is the only sunscreen that doesn't cause breakouts for my sensitive and acne-prone skin.
Cons
I wish the price was a bit more affordable, but there doesn't seem to be a suitable alternative.

Pros
As I have sensitive skin, I have been using Clinique products since I was young, as products with oil do not suit me. While wearing masks, my skin troubles worsened, so I had to stop using this product. However, when I used this product, the appropriate oil content made my skin look good, and my makeup always went on well, which I was satisfied with. When the makeup started to wear off, it would come off nicely, and the sunscreen effect was also good, so I did not have to worry about freckles and the like.
Cons
After starting to wear masks, managing skin troubles became difficult, so I had to stop using the product, but there were complex reasons, with cystic acne being the biggest problem.

Pros
I have dry, sensitive skin but no blemishes. It evens out my skin tone well, so I can just use one product.
Cons
It seems a bit oily. The amount is a little small and it seems like the last bit doesn't come out easily.

Pros
It's a non-comedogenic product, but it applies very smoothly and doesn't have excessive white cast.
Cons
There is too much oil buildup on the skin and it causes darkening, making it look dull. The minimal white cast is an advantage for some, but a disadvantage for me. When I wear this alone, the tone correction is a bit lacking, which is disappointing.

Pros
If you use sunscreen incorrectly, it can seriously worsen skin troubles. That's why I make sure to apply it properly every day - it really works well for me and doesn't cause any breakouts.
Cons
These days, the UV rays are quite severe, and I think that's why there's a bit of a white cast.
