I wouldn't recommend using this under makeup, as it doesn't pair well with my foundation (Banila Co Power Fit). It's best to avoid it when applying makeup.

It's wonderfully moisturizing and leaves hardly any white cast. Perfect for daily use!

화이트닝 UV 선스크린 젤 [SPF50+/PA++++]

Now it's become a bit drier, and the white cast is way too noticeable... I don't understand why they changed the formula.

Previously, I loved how easily it applied, with no white cast and no greasy residue.

The price point is a bit high. It would be fantastic if it were more affordable.

It's incredibly lightweight and absorbs well. It provides excellent hydration without leaving any white residue. I'm absolutely in love with it!

While it feels moisturizing, it seems to be quite rich in oils.

The lightweight texture absorbs easily, giving a feather-light feel on the skin.

While I was generally satisfied, the thin consistency made it hard to tell if I had applied enough or if it was even on my skin at all.

As someone with seborrheic skin that sweats a lot, I was thrilled that this product didn't irritate my sensitive skin. It stayed put even with excessive perspiration, which was fantastic.

Cons:
- Hydration: ⭐️⭐️
While it doesn't feel dry upon application, my skin feels dehydrated and makeup starts to look patchy as time passes. I prefer sunscreens with more hydration.
- Repurchase intention: No

I tried this product after receiving a sample as a gratis gift. I applied it as the final step in my skincare routine before going out.

Pros:
- Absorbs: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It has a gel-like texture that glides on smoothly and effortlessly.
- White cast: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
No white cast, which is great.
- Pilling: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
It doesn't cause makeup to pill.

When I wear this under a face mask, it tends to create a white, powdery residue in the masked area. It's fine when not wearing a mask though.

Absorbs well into the skin. It might feel a bit shiny right after application, but quickly becomes matte. Doesn't cause acne breakouts.

Unfortunately, as time passes, this sunscreen still makes my eyes sting. I wonder if it's because of the organic UV filters...

It doesn't leave a white cast and absorbs well into the skin. Plus, it doesn't cause any blemishes.

It's so good, but the ingredients are really disappointing. I guess it's hard to have great performance and great ingredients too?

As someone who always struggles to find the right sunscreen for summer due to their heavy feel, Anessa sunscreen is a game-changer. It's rewriting my sunscreen history! There's absolutely no white cast, and it's incredibly smooth, almost like an emulsion. It's so light that you might even doubt its sun protection, and it absorbs quickly. There's no greasy feeling, making it perfect as a base without any pilling. Even when applying foundation over it, there's no sliding. It has a slight brightening effect, so I felt comfortable going out with just this on. I'm truly satisfied and will definitely repurchase.

Pro tip: The best advice is not to buy it. Seriously frustrating.

A breeding ground for milia and blemishes. Apply this, and you'll be hosting a milia festival on your face.

It's moisturizing, but honestly, it's not incredibly hydrating, haha!

I was disappointed that the brightening effect wasn't as noticeable as I'd hoped. Maybe I should have just stuck with the regular version!

It absorbs smoothly without feeling heavy, making it perfect for daily use.

If you're looking for a brightening moisturizer effect, I wouldn't recommend this product. Also, it might not be suitable for those who dislike any hint of shine, as it does leave a slight dewy finish.

As someone with super sensitive skin, this sunscreen didn't cause any tingling or irritation when applied. The texture is incredibly hydrating and absorbs well into the skin. There's no white cast, which is a huge plus. Unlike some sunscreens that leave a white residue over time, this one maintains its moisturizing effect, which I really appreciate.

If you dislike even the slightest hint of dewiness or shine, you might want to pass on this. It doesn't have any brightening or tone-evening effects. It's a bit pricey for the amount you get.

Absorbs lightly. No sticky feeling. Unlike typical sunscreens that are often too oily and cause excess shine after powder application, this one definitely does that less. It absorbs well into the skin. Makeup applies smoothly over it.
