Pros
The white cast is minimal and it's not very irritating to the skin. The scent is also not bothersome, which I like. Oh, and I'm happy that the UV protection level is not overly high.
Cons
It absorbs the base well, but it can get a bit cakey if you don't use it. My combination skin gets quite oily in the afternoon. It's great during the seasonal changes, but a bit greasy in the summer!!!
Tip
I recommend snatching it up when there are 1+1 deals, like on Wemakeprice. Haha

Pros
The white cast wasn't too severe and it was gentle, so I found myself reaching for it often.
Cons
It was a bit too shiny, which was a bit disappointing, but I'm still using it well!

Pros
It's great because it's gentle! The price is also affordable, so the cost-effectiveness is good. There is a slight whitening effect, but you can consider it to be almost negligible.
Cons
The finish is not quite refreshing, so it may be a bit disappointing for oily skin types.

Pros
At this price, the application is so smooth..! ㅠㅠ I'm a mineral sunscreen collector because organic sunscreens always leave a grainy texture on my skin. I used to use a daily ㅁ ㅣ ㅅ ㅑ product, but it was just too thick and stuffy, so I switched to an expensive milky product (but that was also thick...). Luckily, Apieu was having a 1+1 sale, and they were promoting the madecassoside ingredient, so I decided to order it on a whim ㅠ The result is extremely satisfactory - the application is gentle, and even after some time, the stuffy or thick feeling is significantly less than other products. I now apply it every day before going out. I've learned that mineral sunscreens can actually be moisturizing. (Is it the centella effect? ♥ There are plenty of moisturizing products out there. But it's rare to find one that doesn't leave your skin feeling stuffy or dry over time. The price is also incredibly affordable, especially during sales, so I'd recommend this to daily users, students, and anyone looking for a great value.
Cons
Hmm.. it doesn't feel stuffy or clogged, but it's a bit too oily, maybe because of the madecassoside ingredient or the 40% centella content. It wipes off easily and has a tendency to slide around, so for someone like me who always applies the full recommended amount of sunscreen, it was a bit tricky to work with. About 8 hours after application, the oil just comes gushing back. I ordered it during the winter when my skin was very dry and tight, so I was satisfied with it then. But now in early summer, it's a bit too much for my skin. I'd recommend this more for dry skin types in the winter, rather than oily skin in the spring and summer.
Tip
If you apply the full recommended amount, it will 100% slide around and leave a mess if you don't blot it. The best way is to gently massage it in (patting will cause it to pill) and build up the layers. A couple of oil blotting sheets in the afternoon should take care of the oil breakthrough.

Pros
Although it is a mineral sunscreen product, it did not have much dryness or white cast, and even for dry skin, there was no dryness at all after use. The ingredients themselves are also gentle, and with the inclusion of madecassoside, even those with trouble or sensitive skin can use it well.
Cons
The SPF seems a bit low, so I think the lasting power might be a bit weak.
Tip
Since it is a mineral sunscreen, it provides sun protection right away after application, so it was good to use in a hurry in the morning. If you want stronger protection, it would also be good to apply a higher SPF sunscreen first and then use this. As I have dry skin, I apply an organic sunscreen essence first and then use this mineral sunscreen together.

Pros
The best thing I think is that it's really mild! It's so gentle that there's no trouble and it's quite nice. And when I apply foundation, it works really well with this product! It doesn't crease or get patchy at all. Skincare before foundation is important, but the sunscreen you apply beforehand is also crucial, right?!! Considering all that, I really think this is a great product 😄
Cons
The disappointing thing was that the product was smaller than I expected ㅠㅠ I thought it would be quite large based on the photos, but it wasn't, so I was a little disappointed ㅠㅠ Other than the small size, it was fine. Ah! And the sunscreen dispenser opening is bigger than I expected!! So when I first used it, I was surprised by how much came out 😅 And I'm not sure if it's just me, but it had a slightly strange smell ㅠㅠ An unknown smell ㅠㅠ The smell is a bit off, so I feel sad every time I use it 😭 Aside from those things, I really think it's a great product!!!

Pros
The ingredients are gentle and apply smoothly. There is a slight whitening effect, but it dissipates quickly. It's very versatile and doesn't feel heavy on the skin.
Cons
There is a slight whitening effect and a bit of a caking phenomenon if you apply too much. It goes away if you keep rubbing it in, but it's not the easiest sunscreen to apply.

Pros
It was gentle and I could use it without any skin troubles!!
Cons
My makeup comes off on top of the sunscreen ㅠㅠ It was fine with other sunscreens, but with this one, the foundation is all peeled off and it's a mess ㅠ I only wear it on days when I don't put on makeup.

It absorbed gently without irritation and felt very moisturizing, which I really liked.

As someone who usually uses SPF 50, the SPF 39 is a bit disappointing.

Pros
I've been using the same bottle for 4 cycles after switching to the mineral sunscreen. It's no secret that I've been stockpiling during the 1+1 promotions ㅋㅋㅋ It's hard to find a moisturizing mineral sunscreen, but this one is gentle, adequately moisturizing, and becomes pleasantly powdery over time, which I like. It leaves a beautiful, luminous complexion, and the white cast fades away as time passes.
Cons
The downside is that it can become slightly powdery and lift around the nose area, especially when I sweat. However, I'm generally satisfied with it, so I'll finish this bottle and try out another mineral sunscreen.
Tip
The tip for application is to thoroughly absorb the base, then gently pat it on with your fingertips. Rubbing can cause it to clump.
