Pros
First of all, it's waterproof, so I used it really well on my vacation!! The application is good and the scent is not the typical sunscreen scent, but more of an aloe scent?? So there was no aversion to it.
Cons
Since it's waterproof, there was some residue that came up on my face :( But since I don't use it every day, it was okay.

Pros
The left side is before the renewal!! The right side is after the renewal!! Personally, I like the renewed version better, both in terms of the softness and the curved shape of the application. Since it's aloe, it doesn't feel sticky or heavy at all~ The aloe scent is not overpowering, but rather subtle and pleasant, making it easy to apply without any burden!!! I bought one more and gave it to my boyfriend, and he's been using it without any aversion.
Cons
To prevent it from drying out and minimize dust, it has a cover-like cap, but my boyfriend tends to lose things, so that's a bit of a downside haha

Pros
🌊 Fragrance There were quite a few reviews complaining about an unpleasant scent, so I was worried, but I'm not sure if it's been changed with the renewal or if it's just my personal preference, but the scent is amazing! It has a soft and fresh fragrance. 😮 🌊 Texture As shown in the photo, when viewed from the front, you can see the curves, and when viewed from the top, the design has a wide and narrow area. Compared to before the renewal, the texture is now more convenient to apply on the face! During water activities, you can apply it without rubbing, and it fits the contours of the face, even in the narrower areas. 🌊 Hygiene Generally, sunscreens in tube form are considered more hygienic. However, during water activities, when your hands are covered in water and impurities, a stick type is much more hygienic as it can be applied directly to the face or body without getting contaminated. Considering the waterproof function, this sunscreen product seems optimized for use during water activities. 🌊 Formulation It applies smoothly without any irritation and leaves a soft, powdery finish! Those with dry skin like me will likely need to have a strong base to make the most of this product.
Cons
🌊 I have sensitive eyes and there is a slight stinging sensation. Given that it has a waterproof function, the ingredients seem a bit disappointing. 🥲

Pros
Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review! 🙂Product Packaging The yellow packaging is refreshing and pretty! The wide, curved shape makes it easy to apply the product evenly on the face or body, and the protective cap helps prevent the product from drying out. The size is about the size of a palm. 🙂Fragrance The product has a nice, refreshing scent. It's not a sweet fragrance, so it can be applied comfortably even in the summer and still feel refreshing. I personally liked it, but those sensitive to scents may find it a bit strong. 🙂Texture/Application This sun stick is truly a 'soft sun stick' as the name suggests! Many other products claim to be soft, but end up feeling sticky when applied. However, this product applies smoothly and softly without any stickiness. (It has a non-greasy texture) There's also no dry, powdery feeling, which sometimes makes you wonder if you've actually applied anything. But with this product, you can clearly feel the application, yet it remains soft! 🙂Applying over Makeup It's fine to lightly apply this over makeup. Surprisingly, when I apply this sun stick, it seems to press down the oiliness on my face and make it feel soft, so it seems to have a primer-like effect! However, be careful not to rub it too hard on your makeup, as any sun stick may cause some shifting, no matter the product. 🙂Repurchase Intention Yes, I would repurchase! I want to recommend it to those around me. This product was recommended by YouTuber 'Office Worker A'!!! A trusted product that I've grown to love even more.
Cons
As I mentioned earlier, those sensitive to scents may find the fragrance a bit strong. However, the scent is refreshing, not unpleasant, and I personally found it fine.
Tip
It has an oil-controlling effect! Swiping it on once in the afternoon when oil starts to appear can be helpful. And this summer has been incredibly hot ㅠㅠ Be sure to diligently apply your sun stick, and let's protect our precious skin together!

Pros
* Zero stickiness. There is very little stickiness. I used it during my trip to Jeju Island and it was so good that I used it instead of the sunscreen I brought, as it had almost no stickiness. It's nice that it doesn't feel sticky, especially when you're sweating. * Convenient to use. Using it as a sun stick was definitely more convenient. * Aloe scent It has an aloe scent which I liked. It didn't seem artificially scented.
Cons
* The amount runs out very quickly. After just a few swipes, the amount used up is noticeable, so it feels like it will be used up soon. It would be great if there was a larger size available. * It sometimes gets pushed out when I wipe it lightly. The adhesion doesn't seem that great.

Pros
But I especially need a primer in the summer, because if I keep applying different things to my face, the makeup ends up sliding off, and I can't take care of everything, so the completion of the makeup ends up being lower. But since this is a dual-purpose product, I don't have to worry as much, and the makeup becomes lighter, which is really great. Even when reapplying outdoors, cushion-type products are good for portability, but the puff gets dirty with sweat, dust, and impurities, so I can't use it well because I'm worried about skin troubles. But with this, I can just wipe it off with a tissue! As soon as I opened it, the grip that fits snugly in my hand... The slight curve seems to make it fit even better, and the lid opening and closing feel just right, so it will be good to take it with me when I go swimming or put it in my bag. Some sunscreens make my face look flushed and oily when I apply them, but this product doesn't have that. Since it's a stick type, it applies well, and after applying, it looks like my bare skin. In the past, even if I didn't want to do makeup, I had to cover the sunscreen with foundation or powder because the texture was too much, but now it's sufficient enough to go bare-faced. However, I'm still doing some correcting... But since it has a primer function, I can skip the primer and comfortably just use the cushion. Even with my thin and sensitive skin, it was fine! Aloe is said to be good for all skin types, and it seems to be good for moisture soothing as well, since it contains aloe. It applies smoothly without drying out or irritating, and it seems a bit less hot, flushed, and oily compared to sunscreens used in the blazing sun. The delivery box, tape, cushioning, and product packaging were all made of environmentally friendly paper materials! This will be good for those who consider this an important factor.
Cons
It's easy to take the sunscreen out, but it's a bit inconvenient to put it back in. It seems like you have to turn it about 2-3 times more to get it in similar to how it came out. Since there will likely be more instances of taking it out than putting it in, it's not a major problem, but it could be inconvenient if that situation arises. 😢 Without oil, it doesn't spread well. I have dry skin and don't like stickiness, so I tried applying it after just using an ampoule. But it didn't spread well that way 😢 When I applied lotion, it spread smoothly! 😢 Inconvenience when putting it back Without oil, it doesn't spread well, so you have to apply an oily product like lotion first. But when you try to put the contents back in after applying, it's really inconvenient... The oil-free formula doesn't spread well, but when it gets on your hands, it doesn't go in smoothly either. There's a middle cap, but it's short, so you have to really push it in and close it, and this part is the most inconvenient. 😢 It applies so sheer that it's hard to tell how much you've applied It spreads really well with just a light swipe, and it covers a wide area quickly! But the skin finish is completely transparent and natural - it doesn't clump or make you look pale, and there's no visible sign, so I'm a little unsure if I've applied it properly! It would be nice if there was a way to check. But it feels like it's spreading well, so I can go about my day with peace of mind! I'll add more as I use it! I buy sunscreen every year, and the stick type is definitely better than the hands. It's convenient that it can be used on the body too, but I'll have to see if it leaves any stains on clothes.. But so far, it's been fine! I only have the photos I took when I first received the product outdoors. I really recommend this - it's the best among the sunscreens I've tried recently!!!

Pros
The container is very refreshing and surprising. It has captured the essence of summer in a refreshing way. It is made of a plastic material with a vertical stripe style, and the grip feels great. I personally love this type of tableware with vertical stripes, so it's a perfect match for my taste. The fragrance is the typical aloe scent of Nature Republic. When applied, it feels like it's soothing my tired skin with aloe. The scent is pleasant and at the right intensity, though it doesn't last as long as perfume. The formula has no white cast whatsoever, and it actually becomes more powdery. I really liked how it made my skin feel soft and baby-like. Considering the humid and stuffy summer weather, along with having to wear a mask, this powdery formula is a big plus, making me want to purchase more. It's also firm enough without becoming mushy and melting away. The contoured shape is not just for design - it fits my face perfectly, which surprised me. I feel like other brands will soon start to imitate this feature. As someone who loves sunscreen sticks and always has a stockpile, using this product has been a joy. My eyes are sensitive, so I can't use just any product, but this one doesn't sting my eyes at all. The wide application area makes it quick and easy to apply. The contoured shape makes it effortless to apply, unlike thick formulas that require rubbing. The lack of white cast means it works great before and after makeup. And it's not at all sticky. I'd give this a full 5-star rating. I might even repurchase once I finish this one, as I've been reaching for it more than my usual sunscreen lately. I'll keep using it diligently and evaluate it carefully until the end.
Cons
Even with a critical eye, I don't have any real complaints about the product performance itself. If I had to nitpick, the only concern I have is that the cap might break easily if it's twisted too much. (This is just a minor worry since the cap is so nice and transparent.) The inner cap is still perfectly intact, though, even though I carry this around a lot. Additionally, if I really had to find something to critique, it would be the fragrance. Some people may not like the aloe or cucumber-like scent. While I personally enjoy it, this product does have a noticeable fragrance, so there will inevitably be some people who don't care for it. But it's hard to call that a true downside, as fragrance preferences are highly subjective. In fact, I almost wish they had offered an unscented version as well, just to cater to those who prefer fragrance-free products. But overall, the fragrance is something I very much enjoy about this sunscreen.
Tip
The pro tip is to really take advantage of the contoured shape when applying this product! Swipe it across your cheeks, then use the contours to easily apply it on your nose, nose sides, forehead, and chin. You can even use the contours to quickly cover your neck area. This product doesn't leave a sticky residue, even when applied on the back of the neck. Additionally, I recommend applying it on the backs of your hands and wrists as well. It's a must-have for drivers to protect the tops of their hands!

Pros
- It's truly fluffy and soft! The sun stick glides on smoothly when applied, unlike most products that feel heavy or greasy. After applying, it leaves a wonderfully soft and weightless finish. - I have combination skin and usually products with a lot of oil make me break out, but after continuous use, I barely experienced any trouble. - It's completely colorless, and the scent is like aloe vera soothing gel, which I personally don't find unpleasant. - It's great not just for the face, but also for the body, as it doesn't leave a sticky residue. - The sun stick has a wide surface area, making it easy to apply.
Cons
- There was almost nothing negative... If I had to pick one thing, it would be that the aloe vera soothing gel-like scent might be a bit unpleasant for some.

Pros
Among all the stick sunscreens I've tried, this one is the least sticky and has the widest coverage, making it a pleasure to apply. It also has a subtle fragrance rather than the typical sunscreen scent, which I really enjoyed. 👍 And most importantly, the stick format is extremely convenient to use!
Cons
The positive and negative aspect is that it is so smooth and creamy that it's hard to tell the difference between before and after application.
Tip
Since the stick has a wide surface area, make sure to apply it thoroughly for complete coverage!

Pros
I really dislike products that leave a sticky residue, but this one had a light, powdery finish. Other sun stick products I've used in the past claimed to be non-sticky, but still left an oily or tacky feeling. This one, however, had a soft, smooth finish. Also, despite the powdery finish, it didn't feel drying, even in the summer. The fragrance is a fresh, aloe scent. It's not a stuffy or strong cosmetic smell, so it wasn't an issue when using the product.
Cons
The size was a bit large, so it was difficult to apply on my face. I experienced some minor skin irritation after using it. It could have been a coincidence, but I've had clear skin lately, and a few small bumps and blemishes appeared after using this product. I'm prone to eye irritation. Those sensitive to stinging eyes should be cautious when using this. Aside from the irritation and eye issues, it was a great powdery sun stick, which is a shame.
Tip
To ensure even coverage, apply the sun stick over a large area, then smooth it out with your fingers.
