I find it less greasy compared to other sunscreens, though I notice quite a few reviewers mentioned it feels oily. There's absolutely no stinging sensation around the eyes either.
ConsI might need to use it more to be sure, but there is some white cast. They say it disappears if you pat it in, but how much patting is necessary? It's not going away easily, unfortunately.

There's not much eye irritation. Less skin irritation.
ConsThe whitening effect is extremely strong. You can't just apply this and go out, you need to apply a skin-colored product (like foundation) on top to look more natural.

It didn't sting my eyes at all since it's mineral-based, and the natural tone-correcting function was great when it absorbed into my skin.
ConsHmm, I don't know if it's just my nose, but the oil control is really intense. The slightly sticky formula does help the base makeup adhere, but it ends up breaking down pretty quickly. Ugh.
TipIf you apply a lot at once, the white cast can be quite severe and it takes a long time to absorb. It's better to apply a small amount and build it up gradually.

And there are no symptoms of eye irritation either.
ConsWow, I've never seen such severe sunburn ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ This is the first time I've seen sunscreen ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It's the worst of the worst.
TipI don't think I'll buy it again ㅜㅜ.

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.ProsMy sunscreen had run out, and I happened to receive a small sample, so I tried it out and it was great. The application was smooth, and since it's a mineral sunscreen, there was no eye irritation or breakouts, which I really appreciated. I can see how some people might not like how white it makes you, and I was surprised at first too, but I ended up liking it later on. Since I don't wear much makeup and have a naturally flushed complexion, anything I apply tends to darken quickly and make me look dull. But this sunscreen maintained a natural, glowing tone as it absorbed, and the effect lasted until I washed it off.
ConsIf you just slather it on, it can really emphasize any dry patches or flakiness... it can even peel off in chunks sometimes. You can't just glob it on, you have to pat it on gently. It's a bit of a hassle. And why do they advertise it as a non-whitening sunscreen when it's clearly a very white, mineral-based formula? Haha. And the price is just too steep for me!

Unlike typical mineral sunscreens, it glided on smoothly and finished with a matte look. There was no eye irritation, and it's recommended to apply 30 minutes before going out, which can be difficult, but I liked that the mineral ingredients get activated right away.
ConsAs I have dry skin, I wished it was a bit less matte. The areas that tend to clump up a bit due to the mineral ingredients required a little more application.
TipWhen applied directly on bare skin, it provides a slightly luminous tone-up effect, so you can just fill in your eyebrows without needing a BB cream.

The packaging is pretty and compact, making it easy to carry around in a pouch. I'm also very satisfied with the product volume, as I've always had trouble using up sunscreens before the expiration date. But with this one, I don't think that will be an issue. The ingredients are better than other sunscreens. It doesn't sting my eyes and doesn't cause any breakouts. Some people have mentioned issues with flaking, but I didn't experience that. I have combination/oily skin.
ConsWow, the white cast seems quite severe... I'm glad it's not just me! Looking at the ingredient list, it's no surprise that zinc oxide is the predominant component. These days, I barely wear makeup, so I'm really particular about my skincare and sunscreen. I was hoping to find a sunscreen that could also provide a brightening effect, but this one doesn't seem to lighten my complexion nicely. The white cast is quite noticeable. And there's an unpleasant shiny finish as well. If I were to apply makeup on top of this, the darkening effect would be quite extreme. Given the high price, I don't think I'll be purchasing this product.
TipWith the significant white cast, it seems important to apply this sunscreen thinly and spread it out evenly to minimize the chalky appearance.

Ingredients As a mineral sunscreen with zinc oxide and titanium dioxide as the main ingredients, it is gentler than organic sunscreens. While it has 2 PEG ingredients which is a bit disappointing, overall the ingredients are quite good and gentle. I usually get breakouts right away when using harsh sunscreen products, but I experienced no breakouts at all while using this. There was also no stinging sensation in the eyes, which was great. 2. Application With a lotion-like texture, it applies smoothly and comfortably for a mineral sunscreen. The finish is moisturizing without being sticky. I was worried it might leave a greasy look initially, but even with my extremely oily T-zone, it did not end up overly shiny or greasy over time. In fact, the oil control was better than my previous Cellusion sunscreen, where the oil secretion was much less throughout the day. Basing it on when I applied my makeup around 2-3 PM, it did not break down into a greasy mess even by late evening. The moisturizing yet non-greasy finish should work well for those with oily skin like myself. 3. This is a double-edged sword, but you can use it in place of Mebeblue. If you pat it in after application, the white cast will subside and it will provide a tone-up effect.
Cons1. White Cast When applying makeup, I can use this instead of Mebeblue without any issues. However, when going out bare-faced, the white cast leaves my face looking a bit puffy. The white cast also leads to some pore clogging... Even though I have a small face, for sunscreens without white cast, I can generously apply about two finger-lengths worth. (Generally, the recommended amount for one application of sunscreen is about two finger-lengths squeezed out.) But for this product, even when using it in place of Mebeblue, the maximum I could apply was about one and a half finger-lengths. 2. Price These days, there are many affordable yet high-quality sunscreen options available, so the relatively high price of around 26,000 won for this product when purchased online feels a bit steep.
TipEven though this product has a high SPF, if the white cast prevents you from applying a generous amount, don't force yourself to use too much. Apply the appropriate amount to get the tone-up effect, and then finish off with a powder sunscreen or other sun protection products. When applying sunscreen and then primer, the products can sometimes interfere with each other. In that case, simply change the order - apply the primer first, patting it in well, and then apply the sunscreen. This will prevent the sunscreen from settling into pores and also stop the primer from pilling under the sunscreen.
