I purchased it immediately after seeing the magazine advertisement a few years ago (in 2017). Currently, PA++++ (4+ is now the norm, but at the time, 'City Smart' was the first). Elizabeth Arden seems to always create 'world's first' title products. There is no irritation. I usually use a general sunscreen (SPF50 PA+++), but when I apply it and go out in the sun, I feel skin discomfort (my face gets red and swollen, or there are irritations and blemishes near the cheekbones). However, when I use 'City Smart', I don't experience those symptoms, so I continue using it. Of course, there is no eye irritation. π―π―π― The color is beige, and it doesn't leave much pigmentation when applied. There is no white cast. It doesn't easily get washed off by sweat, so I use it well every summer. I also applied it well when I went to the sunny country of Spain πͺπΈ. The texture spreads smoothly. It has a soft lotion-like feel. It's close to being fragrance-free.
Cons1. Expensive price When it was first released, I purchased it at the Lotte Department Store main branch for 89,000 won for a 40ml bottle. The price was higher than Lancome's sunscreen, but I trusted it since it was the world's first PA++++ (with 4+ marks). π€π€π€ Reason for the high price?: DNA Enzyme ComplexTM It claims to protect against DNA deformation caused by photoaging, and I can see a comfortable facial skin in the morning after application and in the evening after cleansing.πππ I only use this during the summer. 2. For combination or dry skin types, or during non-summer seasons, it can be slightly drying. (I don't feel the dryness during summer. However, if I'm directly exposed to strong air conditioning, it can become drying πππ) So, if I apply the Ceramide Gold Capsule β Moisture Cream β City Smart, I can perfectly address the dryness.
Tip*It's an essential item when traveling to the beach or sunny countries. *When using this product and then applying a #21 cushion foundation, the color may not be expressed well, so it's essential to do a test before purchasing. *Elizabeth Arden products are usually priced high when first released, but the prices gradually decrease through promotions. However, this product does not receive any price discounts.πππ It can be purchased during 1+1 promotions at department stores.

Since I've been using the Eight Hour Cream for about 8 years, I tested the sunscreen and found that it didn't cause any irritation around my eyes at all. So I've been using this product exclusively. It seems that the Elizabeth Arden brand often has promotional events since I was able to get a 1+1 deal on the sunscreen this time as well. I use Elizabeth Arden sunscreen and moisturizer, but for other products I use more affordable ones from drugstores. This is my holy grail sunscreen.
ConsIt takes some time for the product to be absorbed at first. It may also feel a bit oily, but once I apply foundation on top and get to the office, it seems to help prevent my makeup from sliding off.
