This product is a sun gel, so it has a lightweight feel. The size is perfect for carrying in your makeup pouch.
ConsI didn't find any drawbacks while using it. I'm completely satisfied.

It's great for those days when you don't want to wear makeup but still want a little something on your skin.
ConsWhen I suddenly developed blemishes and my skin became super sensitive, applying this product caused a burning sensation and made my skin feel hot.

I picked it up on a whim, and wow, I'm incredibly satisfied with this product! It's not your typical sunscreen, but a sun gel, which makes it incredibly hydrating yet lightweight. It absorbs well without leaving any rich residue, so it doesn't feel heavy on the skin. The best part? It still offers high SPF and PA protection, making me want to repurchase it right away! I'm almost out now, and even though I have other sunscreens, I'll probably grab this one again if I see it. Unfortunately, it's not available in all Olive Young stores. As someone who used to use the red Cellfusion C product, I really appreciate that this doesn't leave a white cast or cause pilling like some other sunscreens do.
ConsIf I had to nitpick and explain why I took off one star, it would be this: As light as it is, it feels cool when applied (not sure if that's because it's a gel). If you're not someone who regularly applies emulsion and moisturizer thoroughly, you might feel some deep dryness when you go out after applying just this. I have oily skin but struggle with dehydration, and I sometimes get lazy about applying emulsion... If I apply a good moisturizer before going out, it's fine, but when I'm in a hurry and only use this, my skin feels tight.
TipHighly recommended for those who are diligent with their skincare routine and hate heavy products! It's incredibly lightweight and non-greasy. It's so runny that you can apply it without even touching your face - it spreads easily. Those who dislike thick, irritating formulas will probably love this too!

Unlike other sunscreens that feel heavy and seem to clog pores, this one is light and moisturizing like an emulsion - it doesn't even feel like a sunscreen! The gentle ingredients make it safe to use even with my 3-year-old niece, which is great. When it was in a tube, I felt uneasy about using it up completely, but now it comes in a sturdy case that fits perfectly in your hand, so I think I'll be able to use every last drop. I plan to purchase this with my own money once I finish it!
ConsThe quantity is a bit disappointing when trying to cover larger areas! Other than that, I can't find any drawbacks.
TipWhen mixed with foundation, it creates a dewy, light makeup look.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsFirst off, I have a skin type that's prone to blemishes if I use products carelessly. Especially with sunscreens, almost every product causes breakouts and eye irritation, making it difficult to wear makeup from morning to night. Applying sunscreen alone makes my skin feel uncomfortably tight. When I first squeezed it out, I thought it would be a transparent gel, but this sun gel had a color similar to regular sunscreens, yet with a lighter and fresher application. Even after applying it all over, true to its name as a sun gel, it felt weightless, moisturizing, with no greasy feeling or stickiness afterwards. It feels like you've just applied a light cream. Even when I wore it alone from morning till night, while there was some oil, it didn't turn dark or heavy! There was no eye irritation or tingling, and my skin didn't feel heavy - I even forgot I was wearing sun gel. Not only was the feel good, but I didn't even get any blemishes. It was miraculous. The biggest issue I had with sun products - breakouts - didn't occur. Oh, and it has absolutely no harmful ingredients. Isn't that amazing? (In my younger days, I thought the ingredients might be the problem and tried products claiming to have no harmful ingredients, but I still got breakouts, so I know you can't just go by ingredients alone.)
ConsIt doesn't provide tone correction. There's a bit of fragrance. These two points might be disappointing and could be hit or miss for some. If you want tone correction besides foundation or cushion, I recommend using a base or concealer. It has an aroma scent. Hmm... it's exactly like the scent you smell when getting an aromatherapy treatment at a spa. Forphe's sun gel contains chamomile oil and lavender oil. The scent really seems to vary from person to person. I'm usually sensitive, but strangely, it was fine for me. (I usually wash my hands with soap after applying sun products and then do my makeup, but even when I just rinsed with water, it didn't feel unpleasant. I wondered if the sun gel would hold up during water activities. Without professional equipment, it's hard to know if it's truly water-resistant, but it's an interesting question about how it washes off compared to regular sunscreens.)
TipIt's called Aqua Essence Sun Gel. It really does feel like applying a hydrating essence, and as a sun gel, it's truly lightweight. It doesn't take time to absorb, so you can apply it after your skincare routine and proceed with your usual makeup. I really like it. As I was writing this review and looking at the product, I noticed: 'Worry-free Ingredients Hydrating & Fresh Texture' It makes me smile. I think they've described the product exactly as it is. No worrisome ingredients, hydrating power, and a fresh texture - that's exactly what it is. I'll be using this in my daily life, and it's suitable for the whole family to use without worry.

It applies smoothly, feels moisturizing without being sticky, and is lightweight enough for easy application.
ConsThe 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 texture felt lightweight (compared to the typical feel of sunscreens). It's a gentle, organic sunscreen (so I didn't worry about white cast or harsh ingredients).
ConsThe scent might be polarizing (though I personally found it fine). The price point might make some hesitate to purchase (however, considering other gentle organic sunscreens with similar volume are priced comparably, I didn't question the pricing).

I originally avoided sun gels thinking their ingredients weren't good, but this one has great ingredients and absorbs beautifully! It's a revolution in sunscreens! Now I think I can finally apply the proper amount of sunscreen. When applied, it feels light and moisturizing, like a hydrating cream?! Once it absorbs, it feels like you're wearing nothing at all. My skin has been super sensitive lately, but I didn't get a single blemish after using this! I highly recommend it! The way it absorbs and hydrates is beyond words! And there's no white cast either!
ConsThere wasn't much I disliked! However, the price is a bit wicked... The volume is also a bit small. I wish they could lower the price...

I'm usually someone who avoids sunscreen, even in the peak of summer, because I dislike the typical heavy and sticky feeling. However, this gel-type sunscreen is completely different! It doesn't feel sticky or suffocating at all. Instead, it feels incredibly smooth and hydrating, almost like applying a light emulsion. (It's slightly richer than a gel, but lighter than the emulsion I used in winter - it's more like a hydrating essence!) It's hard to believe that something so lightweight can offer SPF 50 and PA++++ protection. I typically use a generous amount of sunscreen - about one to two finger-lengths - and I've never experienced any pilling when applying makeup over it. The scent is pleasant, and it's so moisturizing that I find myself reaching for it often!
ConsOh... I just checked the price and it's a bit... expensive. I might try other gel-type sunscreens or Missha's Sun Milk before considering repurchasing this one.
TipIt might not be a groundbreaking tip, but when reapplying over makeup, if you don't have a puff, I spread a thin layer on my palm and gently pat it onto my skin!
