The scent... there's a strange, lingering odor. It makes my face itchy after application, so I've resorted to using it on my arms and legs. I just pretend it's a body sunscreen now...

As an aqua sun gel, it's packed with hydration, making it feel wonderfully moisturizing when applied

아쿠아 에센스 선 젤 [SPF50+/PA++++]

1. Being a sun gel formula, its longevity feels a bit uncertain...

1. A gentle, lightweight formula with organic purple tea, making it suitable for the whole family to use.

2. If organic purple tea suits your skin, this product is great for daily use.

3. It doesn't cause blemishes, offers a slight cooling effect, and provides plenty of hydration.

4. When applied over a solid skincare base, it provides ample moisture.

Has this product been discontinued? I can't find it anywhere... When I tried to repurchase it before, it seemed like it was gone, but then suddenly appeared in online stores again. I hope it's not gone for good this time.

I bought this in-store for use on my body, as the price was reasonable and it looked gentle. But it turned out to be so much better than expected that I later ordered four more tubes online and used it all year round!

Firstly, it absorbs incredibly well. While it doesn't have a gel-like texture as the name might suggest, it goes on super smoothly. I love hydrating products, and this one leaves no dryness or tightness at all. Yet it doesn't feel greasy either.

I have sensitive skin that burns easily, but I had no issues using this for over a year, which speaks volumes about its sun protection power.

Even my friend who borrowed it during our trip asked about the product afterwards.

I highly, highly recommend this!

Please bring it back! I promise I'll use it for life!

I've tried pretty much everything out there, but nothing compares to this. As someone with combination dehydrated skin and blemishes, wow! But it seems like it's been discontinued... Oh no...

I didn't find any drawbacks while using it. I'm completely satisfied.

When applied, you feel a slight cooling sensation on your face. This product is a sun gel, so it has a lightweight feel. The size is perfect for carrying in your makeup pouch.

It applies so lightly that it feels like you're not wearing anything... to the point where I wonder if it's really providing sun protection! When it's not on sale, the price is a bit high for the amount you get. But I guess we have to consider the quality ingredients and use it anyway.

I had to go to the US but didn't have time to prepare sunscreen, so I rushed to Olive Young and grabbed whatever was on sale. Surprisingly, it applied lightly and didn't cause any blemishes! Later, I found out the ingredients were excellent. If you have super sensitive skin, give this a try in summer. It might just become your holy grail!

You know sunscreen is a must even if your makeup has SPF, right? Let's age gracefully together!

If I really had to nitpick, my mom said it stings her eyes a little bit.

This sunscreen is a holy grail for sunscreen nomads! I've tried so many YouTuber-recommended sunscreens that didn't play well with makeup and pilled, so I practically gave up on sunscreen. But then I found this Purito one, and I've settled on it, emptying about 5 tubes! It has no white cast and absorbs quickly like a moisturizer!!!

The quantity is a bit small, and the price seems questionable for the amount. I'm also anxious it might be discontinued.

I absolutely love it! There's not even a hint of white cast.

The only downside is that it's only 50ml, which feels too little. Even though I only use it on my face, I wish there was a larger size available.

Love it! I repurchased this. It's packed with hydrating essence, making it super moisturizing. The ingredients are gentle and effective. The sun protection is high, and the price point of around $10 is great.

I think I need to use it more to form a full opinion. For now, I'm just shocked at how identical it feels when applying...

I bought this because it's similar to Biore Medis in terms of ingredients! When I opened the pouch and used it, it felt exactly like Biore Medis. The scent, texture, and even the warming sensation are all the same. I got it for just $10 during a sale at Olive Young!

The ingredients are a bit disappointing. I'm aware that natural aromatic oils like lavender oil contain potential allergens, so they're better used for fragrance rather than skin contact. It seems this ingredient was added for scent, but as someone sensitive to fragrances, I find it overpowering and unpleasant. For sunscreen, you need to apply an adequate amount and reapply regularly. However, following this rule with this product gives me a headache due to the strong scent. Apart from this issue, I have no other complaints.

The overall experience is satisfactory. It applies smoothly, feels moisturizing without being sticky, and is lightweight enough for easy application.

It's best to apply 30 minutes before going out. When your skin feels hot, applying this provides an immediate soothing effect!

It might be a bit challenging to apply over makeup. The scent, which I'd describe as typical of sunscreens, is quite strong and lingers for a while after application. Those who are sensitive to fragrances might find it difficult to use.

All ingredients have an EWG green rating, making it perfect for my super sensitive skin! As someone who prioritizes ingredients due to my sensitive skin, this product was absolutely ideal for me. There's no white cast at all, and when applied, you can feel a gentle, cool sensation! I think the cooling effect without alcohol is a huge plus. With 76% hydrating essence, the moisturizing effect lasted for quite a while. After application, it leaves a non-sticky, powdery finish, allowing for seamless makeup application without any pilling. Compared to other sunscreen containers, this one has a narrow, pointed opening, making it easy to control the amount used.
