It reminds me of that famous Nivea sunscreen that used to be a must-buy on Japanese shopping lists (it was an emulsion type, though this one has a slightly creamier texture). The formula might be hit or miss for some, but as someone who sweats a lot and gets flushed easily in hot weather, hating anything sticky on my skin (I barely wear makeup in summer), I fortunately didn't experience any blemishes with this product. What I loved most is that it doesn't have that suffocating feeling typical of sunscreens, yet it's moisturizing and makes makeup apply smoothly. I even wore it on a glamping trip and barely got tanned, so it seems to provide good UV protection. It doesn't run with sweat or cause eye irritation, making it great for men too. And importantly, it's perfect for body application! Unlike whitening sunscreens that often stain clothes, this one doesn't require any extra care after application, which is super convenient.
ConsThe cap is small and light. If you're the type to rush through skincare and makeup, you might find yourself searching for the cap after applying. It would have been better with a one-touch flip-top lid for easier use. As mentioned earlier, the texture absorbs like an emulsion, so it doesn't provide any complexion correction (it would be perfect for those with good skin who don't wear much makeup or are looking for a hydrating sunscreen). Those seeking whitening effects or tone correction might want to try other sunscreens. Also, because it applies transparently, there's a slight worry that it might not provide enough UV protection, but this can probably be solved by applying multiple layers.
TipTo summarize: 1. Absorbs like an emulsion without the typical suffocating feeling of sunscreens 2. Recommended for those seeking a moisturizing sunscreen that doesn't cause makeup to pill 3. Doesn't provide complexion correction or cover redness 4. Likely to be popular with men as it doesn't run with sweat or cause eye irritation
