Pros
There were no good points.....Just that the formulation is a bit unusual...? It's like a meringue-like formulation
Cons
The spreadability is terrible and the sunscreen leaves a noodle-like film....😭 It's blinding my eyes for real

Pros
● Sensitive / Acne-prone skin X Sensitive skin that breaks out in pimples right away if the product doesn't suit it / Oily skin I've been using this product since I used to use the entire Medicube line. Currently, I've replaced most of them and am using different products. *Texture The texture is good. It applies very smoothly, softly, and moisturizes well. It sometimes feels a bit creamy, but there's no discomfort when applying. And after applying, there's a slightly refreshing feeling. *Tone-up & White-cast It doesn't make a significant difference, but it does brighten the skin tone a bit. However, it doesn't cover blemishes or anything, so it's just a subtle tone-evening effect. *Volume It's 70ml, so I've been using it for quite a long time. I think the volume is good considering the price. *Fragrance It's not fragrance-free. It has a refreshing scent, but I can't pinpoint a similar one. However, the fragrance is not unpleasant, so I liked it.
Cons
*Irritation When I first bought it, I wasn't aware of the Hwahae app, so I kept using it because of the 'good ingredients' (as advertised), the influencer model, and the brand I was used to. But there was a slight discomfort when using it. When my skin was healthy, I just brushed it off, but recently, due to stress, my skin has become more sensitive, and the sunscreen became quite irritating. So when I checked the ingredients on the Hwahae app... Oh dear... It's quite irritating. *Adhesion When applying it as a pre-makeup step, it pills or flakes. Even when I'm not wearing makeup, if I apply it on top of a cream, it pills like dirt. So I only used it at home when I wasn't going out.
Tip
It seems to be discontinued, as I couldn't find it on the Medicube website either. If possible, I'd recommend not using it. I also ordered a different gentle sunscreen right away after checking the ingredients and being shocked.

Pros
Non-irritating. UV protection. These are the main advantages.
Cons
Excessive pilling. After application, the cushion or foundation becomes messy when layered on top. The same issue occurs even when the base is applied moisturized. When applied by hand, it pills like dirt when rubbing the hands after application.

Pros
The only thing that the goddess-like influencer advertises is nothing.
Cons
It's piling up like the seasons. You have to shake it off with toilet paper. I thought it might be a basic makeup issue, so I tried changing it, but it's still piling up. It's not even cheap, and I'm completely disappointed.

Pros
The sunscreen has a good texture and is not too slippery. It feels refreshing. It does not feel sticky. There is not too much white cast. It did not cause any breakouts. It rinses off well when washing the face. I've been using this really well... but it's been discontinued. Lately, it seems to have been renewed as a hybrid sunscreen... Since I have acne-prone skin, I really want to avoid hybrid (organic) sunscreen ingredients... So I probably won't be buying the renewed sunscreen... It's a shame...
Cons
The formula is a bit thick and tends to become matte when applied. I have oily skin, so this works well for me, but when I apply foundation on top, there is a slight tendency for it to cake.

Pros
The application is quite good Rather than saying 'whitening', it would be more accurate to express it as 'improving skin tone' It improved naturally
Cons
Ah... The biggest downside, really I know that sunscreen should only be applied in small amounts, but having to reapply it constantly means the sunscreen components get pushed out, which is a real pain point for me who likes to wear dark clothes... It just falls off in flakes, like dandruff. The unpleasant feeling of having grime come off my face every time I use it is so frustrating

Pros
It's just a regular, unremarkable sunscreen. There was nothing particularly special about it.
Cons
When I apply it in the winter, it strangely causes a lot of flaky skin to peel off. After applying the base and sunscreen, and some time passing, when I touch my face, these flaky skin-like things roll out. But when I'm not using this product, it doesn't happen at all... Because of this, I feel like my makeup doesn't apply well either. A minor disappointment is that due to the product's design, it's hard to tell if I've used it all up or not..ㅠㅠ I have no intention of repurchasing this.

Pros
It is moisturizing, has good spreadability, has good moisture content, and has a subtle fragrance.
Cons
The moisturizing properties evaporate, leaving behind powdery residues of the non-volatile components that clump together and create a chalky, powdery buildup.
Tip
I am using it on the back of my hand or on my neck.

Pros
Despite having a strong, blemish-free complexion even during my adolescence, my face is now covered in unexplained hives as I've entered my thirties, leaving my skin very sensitive. However, when I applied this product, while it did sting a bit, it didn't worsen the condition further. (My skin is so sensitive that even just water contact causes stinging.)
Cons
Even when my skin was in good condition, this product caused a lot of pilling and clogged my pores, leading to a white cast. Of course, this may vary depending on your skincare routine, but for me, I would cleanse, apply an ampoule, and then use the Illiyoon Ato Lotion (not the cream) as the final step, without using any other makeup.
