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

This one doesn't contain any pore-clogging ingredients, so I didn't experience any breakouts! - Application: It's a sun gel with a slight viscosity. It doesn't feel watery when applying, but more like a sunscreen. It spreads much more smoothly and easily than many other sunscreens. - Scent: It does have a fragrance. It's a floral scent, which might be divisive. As someone who cares about fragrance, I found it quite strong. The scent is lovely, but its intensity was slightly off-putting. The fragrance lingers subtly after application. - Hydration: Having only used mineral sunscreens before, this felt much more hydrating. It's very moisturizing and didn't leave my skin feeling dry after application. - Oiliness & Shine: True to its 'sun gel' name, it's full of hydration with a touch of oil. It doesn't make you extremely shiny, but it feels like applying a slightly rich cream. - Absorption: It absorbs well into the skin. Not too slow, not too quick to evaporate - just right. However, if you apply too much, it might not absorb as well. - Packaging: The container is well-designed for a sun gel. Unlike some that pour out like water, this one has a narrow opening, keeping things clean and easy to use. - White cast: Absolutely none! That's the best advantage of chemical sunscreens. I prefer mineral sunscreens for reapplication, but this one doesn't require that and doesn't alter your skin tone at all. - Stickiness: Unless your skincare routine includes sticky products, this isn't sticky at all! As someone who strongly dislikes stickiness, I really appreciated this aspect.
Cons- The fragrance was a bit too strong for me, causing some dizziness. I prefer subtle scents, but this one lingered even after application. That's why I deducted one star. - The quantity was the most disappointing aspect. It's a hydrating sun gel that you'll likely use generously, but the amount seems small for the price. - The biggest drawback of chemical sunscreens might be the need for frequent reapplication. It's practically impossible to reapply over makeup, which is a shame despite all its other good qualities. - While it's hydrating, those with very dry skin might still find it a bit drying.
TipInstead of trying to apply a lot at once, it's better to apply it in two layers!
