The disappointing thing is that it's been discontinued, which was already a letdown. But now, looking at the ingredients, I'm shocked.

As a sunscreen nomad, I finally settled on this one as it was the best I'd found. Sadly, it seems to have been discontinued as I can't find it anymore. It was affordable and absorbed well. After application, it left my skin feeling powdery soft, as if I'd lightly dusted on some powder. There was no white cast either.

수부지 선 코튼 [SPF50+/PA++++]

Pairs well with the Clio Ampoule Cushion. This sunscreen can cause deep dryness, but the Ampoule Cushion has a rich texture. Applying the cushion over the mattified skin from the sunscreen provides just the right amount of glow and helps makeup last longer

It worked well in summer, but as winter approached, makeup started to pill like dead skin. It seemed to clash with heavier skincare products

Causes deep dryness. I continued using it because it greatly improved makeup longevity. However, I stopped using it in winter due to the pilling issue

Skin type: Combination dehydrated skin/Excessive sebum production/Acne-prone/Slightly sensitive

No white cast whatsoever

Texture is fantastic. It applies smoothly like a cream but absorbs quickly like a watery toner. Instead of artificially mattifying with a powdery finish, it feels like you've applied nothing at all, similar to after using an essence. Highly recommended for those who dislike the residual feeling of sunscreen

Makeup staying power is impressive. Although you can't feel powder particles on the skin, somehow it significantly reduces oil production and helps foundation last longer

Excellent value for money

While I appreciated how thinly it applies, I was a bit concerned whether I had applied enough for proper protection. Also, the scent might be divisive. It has a baby powder fragrance, which isn't to my taste, so I was slightly hesitant about using it.

I usually dislike the sticky feeling when applying products to my skin, so I was thrilled to discover A'pieu's Soo Boo Ji Sun Cotton while searching for a non-sticky sunscreen! It applies incredibly thinly, almost to the point where you might forget you've put anything on. Even when I layered a brightening moisturizer on top, there was no pilling, and my skin felt wonderfully matte. I'm absolutely delighted with it! Plus, there's no white cast at all! I absolutely love it!

The ingredients list is slightly disappointing, and the white matte packaging gets dirty easily. The volume feels a bit small (uses up too quickly) unless you buy it on sale.

Affordable and bought it based on the name, but I'm really satisfied with how this sunscreen feels. Despite its high SPF, it doesn't apply matte or rich, but absorbs into the skin with a moisturizing effect. There's absolutely no white cast, it absorbs well, and doesn't cause my makeup to pill or separate. I didn't experience any blemishes at all. I'd recommend this to anyone who's been hesitant about using sunscreen because they dislike sticky or heavy products.

After completing your morning skincare routine, let your skin cool down a bit, then apply this product. Your skin will feel incredibly soft and velvety! Plus, the absorbs so well that you can even apply it over makeup without any issues!

It doesn't dramatically brighten your skin, which could be seen as a plus. If you're not a fan of white cast, this might be a good choice because it really doesn't leave your skin looking overly white! (That's actually why I bought it!)

I bought this because I really dislike sticky, thick products, and wow, it's amazing! It comes out like a cream but applies like water, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth at the end. It's truly a godsend! I loved it so much I found myself applying it about 3 times a day.

I didn't check the ingredients so I didn't know, but I kept getting blemishes. When I finally checked... oh no! I guess I'll have to use this on my body instead.

The best thing about it is how lightly it absorbs. Other than that, not so great...

Additional information about the product (added 2019.06.26): The ingredient Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane (Avobenzone, Parsol 1789) is suitable for all skin types except sensitive skin. It has a light feel, making it good for combination to oily skin, but it can cause eye irritation, so be careful when applying near the eyes. I'm adding this because I just read about this ingredient in a skincare book I'm currently reading. Looks like I might have super sensitive skin.

My entire face turned red, and I experienced cosmetic side effects for the first time in my life. I even had to visit a dermatologist for the first time due to the reaction. I bought it based on the product design and price without checking the ingredients... Now I'm starting to scrutinize each ingredient... Could it really be because of PEG as people say? Hmm...

The product design is absolutely gorgeous. Why are other sunscreen products so tacky-looking? Plus, during the 1+1 sale, it's only 10,000 won. Getting two for 10,000 won... wow, what a steal! Oh, and it absorbs so well - it's like it disappears into your skin instantly! However...

I originally went to buy a different sunscreen, but the store assistant recommended this and I bought it as if I was enchanted. Now I totally regret it. I hope anyone reading this doesn't fall for others' recommendations and make the same mistake

It pills like dead skin cells and feels a bit too drying for me, beyond just being matte

It feels moisturizing when applied, then dries to a soft, matte finish with absolutely no white cast

After using this, my skin felt a bit of a tingling sensation. Those with super sensitive skin should avoid using this

True to its name for combination dehydrated skin, I love how hydrating this is

The ingredients... Why... are they like this? No wonder something felt off.

It doesn't make my skin look pale... It's pretty decent... That's why I bought it twice.

I'm not sure what to make of it. After applying, I'm not certain if it's because of this product, but I've noticed some blemishes appearing.

There's no white cast, and the color blends seamlessly as if you're not wearing anything. It's perfect for everyday use.
