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.

If you apply it right after your morning skincare routine and let it sit for a bit in the fridge-cooled air, your skin will be so soft and supple, there's no doubt about it! Plus, the application is really smooth, so you can even put it on after doing your makeup without any issues.

It doesn't really make my skin super white, but I guess that could be considered a positive in some ways. If you don't like the white cast, this might be a good choice, because it really doesn't make your skin that white! (But I personally liked that and bought it!)

This product is really not my cup of tea as I dislike thick, viscous products. But when I applied it, it came out like cream and glided on my skin like water, and it finished off by leaving my skin soft and smooth - it's truly a godsend! I loved it so much that I think I applied it around 3 times a day.

I didn't check the ingredients, so I didn't know, but then I kept getting acne, so I wondered if it was because of this. I'll have to use it only on my body from now on.

I really like the lightweight, easy-to-apply feel. Everything else is so-so...

2019.06.26 Addition) Helpful information about the product: Butylmethoxydibenzoylmethane (avobenzone, Parsol 1789) is a component that can be used on all skin types except sensitive skin. It has a refreshing feel and is a good ingredient for combination skin, but it can cause eye irritation, so caution is needed when using it around the eye area. I'm adding this information because I found it in the skin care book I'm currently reading. I guess I have sensitive skin.

My whole face turned red, and I experienced a cosmetic product side effect for the first time. The side effect also led me to visit a dermatologist for the first time. I bought the product without looking at the ingredients, just focusing on the product design and price... but then I started looking at the ingredients one by one... hmm, could it really be because of the PEG as people say?

The product design is so pretty. Why are the designs of other sunscreen products so tacky? And it's 10,000 won when on a 1+1 discount. Wow, I got 2 for 10,000 won... I got a great deal^^ Oh, the spreadability is also good - it's as if I didn't even apply it, it absorbs so smoothly! However...

I originally went to buy another sunscreen, but the store clerk recommended this one and I ended up buying it on impulse. I really regret it now, so I hope anyone reading this doesn't get swayed by others' recommendations and end up buying something they don't like.

It felt a bit drier than just fluffy, like a film was forming on my skin.

When applied, it is moisturizing, but when dried, it becomes fluffy and there is absolutely no white cast.

I felt a slight stinging sensation after using this. I'd recommend those with sensitive skin to avoid it.

The name suggests it might be a bit watery, but that's great as it's very moisturizing.

I won't be buying it again next time ㅜㅜ

The ingredients... why... are they like this? I felt like something was off about it.

It didn't bleach out, so it was decent... I bought two whole bottles of it.

The alcohol scent was too strong, and I was surprised when I first used it. There is a very strong sensation, and my skin feels irritated when I apply it. In any case, I don't have any recommendation intentions, and I don't think I will use it.

The matte finish and strong UV protection seem impressive.
