It's not sticky at all and just right. Most sunscreens are heavy, sticky, and suffocating on the face, but this one is great.
ConsThere is a bit of white cast, and although my skin is not extremely dry, my face starts cracking 1-2 hours after application. It seems a bit difficult to reapply.
TipUsing this alone makes my face feel a bit dry, so I alternate it with a sunscreen stick. Using just the stick makes my face feel slippery and greasy, but using them together gives a nice, powdery finish.

Although it's a physical sunscreen, the texture applies smoothly like a lotion. When applied to the skin, it doesn't feel heavy or stuffy. The coverage is good, and there's no stuffy feeling. There is a slight whitening effect, but it's just a subtle brightening of the skin tone. Usually sunscreens feel sticky, but this one applies without any stickiness. However, since my skin is oily, some oil does come through over time, though less so than other sunscreens. For physical sunscreens, double cleansing is recommended. I tried cleansing with both cleansing water and cleansing oil, and felt the oil cleansing removed it more thoroughly. I've always struggled with skin irritation from sunscreens, but this one seems to be fine for my sensitive skin. Before receiving this, I was using the Atoparm Kongsuni Baby Sun Pact, so I'm glad to have another suitable sunscreen option.
Cons*I wish there was a sunscreen that could be removed well with just one cleansing step, since it's a physical sunscreen.

I have a combination skin type - sensitive and oily T-zone, dry U-zone. This sunscreen was great - it didn't leave a white cast and went on smoothly like a lotion. I really dislike sunscreens that are sticky and heavy, but this one applied very lightly. I was able to easily apply the sunscreen and then put on my cushion foundation without it pilling or moving around. The scent was also not too strong, which I appreciated. I used to be a sunscreen nomad, but I'm going to stick with this one because I liked it so much.
ConsOver time, there was a slight whitening or pilling around my nose area, but I could easily rub it in with my fingers and it would disappear. So there weren't really any major downsides for me.

My skin type is more on the combination side, and I sometimes get the occasional blemish. I heard that this product is very gentle and suitable for both children and adults. After using it for a week, I didn't experience any breakouts, and it seemed to work well for me. The application was also not bad. It didn't feel heavy or thick when applied, but rather had a nice, lightweight feel. I didn't feel like my face was suffocating or overly sticky. There was a slight white cast, but it wasn't too severe for me, just a light whitening effect. I was also able to apply concealer and foundation on top without any issues like caking or sliding.
ConsThe only downside was the scent, which I wasn't too fond of. I could still smell it every time I applied the product, but it wasn't a dealbreaker. The biggest issue was that as time passed, it started to feel a bit drying on my skin. So while it might be great for oily skin types, those with dry skin may find it a bit too drying, and might need to use a mist or other hydrating products along with it.
TipFor those with dry skin, it's recommended to have a good skincare routine and use this product carefully. It might also work better in the summer than in the winter.

This is my first time being selected, so I'm really excited~! Other people have written quite professionally, but... I'll write from the perspective of a pure consumer who knows nothing. I used to just slap on any sunscreen I had, not really caring about the type. So when I was first selected, I was a bit curious to see how different sunscreens could be. However, after using the Calmdown Centella Sunscreen, I realized the difference is quite noticeable. It was surprising. The pros of this product are: >> Applies well, has good absorption & leaves a clean finish, the ingredients are gentle, and the scent is nice. ★Application is great, absorption is great → finish is clean★★★★★ : This seems to be a major advantage of this product! It applies smoothly and absorbs quickly without any discomfort. Since I used to use thicker products with poor absorption, I had to really work it in and pat it down... risking pilling and being a hassle. But this one applies and absorbs so well. As long as you don't apply too much at once, it leaves a really fresh, moisturized finish. I don't have time to reapply sunscreen throughout the day, so I just slather it on in the morning, and it still feels more refreshing than other products I've used just once. + The finish is particularly nice. It has the right amount of moisture and oil, not overly dewy. 2. The ingredients are gentle. Honestly, my skin is pretty thick and tough, so this wasn't a major selling point for me... but it does feel nice to know the ingredients are gentle! No irritation at all! However, my skin tends to have issues with oil management rather than reacting to ingredients, so I'm not sure how relevant this would be for others. Check other reviews for more insight. 3. The scent is great. I don't usually pay much attention to scents, but this one isn't overpowering, which I liked. Not bad at all~
ConsHmm, I don't really have any major downsides to mention! If I had to nitpick... as someone with extremely oily skin, in the summer I usually use a mattifying base product to really control the shine. This one might not be as effective for that purpose. But it still lasts longer than other dewy products... and this isn't really meant for that use case, so it's not a big downside.
TipApplying it in thin layers multiple times works well. I'd recommend this more for dry skin types. But it's not bad for oily skin either.

I usually prefer sunscreens with a slight white cast because I believe they provide more reliable UV protection, even if they can be a bit drying. This sunscreen is one of the products with a white cast that I prefer. However, when I first applied it, I couldn't even tell it was there. It spreads smoothly like a cream and doesn't feel heavy or cakey, so when applied thinly, it's virtually undetectable on the face. But if you layer it on, it can provide a brightening effect. It also doesn't pill or feel greasy when reapplied. And it doesn't leave an overly white cast either!! The application is really nice, and the lavender scent is very subtle and pleasant. The UV protection is also very effective, and the ingredients are great, so I'm 100% certain I will repurchase this product.
ConsWith the changing seasons lately, my skin has been a bit dry, and even though this sunscreen claims to be moisturizing, it still leaves my skin feeling a bit dry. I think using a good skincare routine as the base would solve the problem, and this would probably work even better in the summer.
TipMaking sure your skincare routine is solid and applying a drop of facial oil can help prevent dryness when using this sunscreen!
