I was about to give up on sunscreen altogether, it was so frustrating! But then I discovered this one. I chose it because there were no reviews mentioning blemishes, and boy, was I right... Hallelujah! For my skin, it doesn't cause any issues. It's moisturizing without being greasy... No white cast at all... Absorbs well... And get this - my existing blemishes seem to be improving? What are you, magic? It's just so good... I've finally found my holy grail! I don't usually post photos, but my skin looks so much better lately that I had to share. Look at that glow!
ConsUgh, all those terrible sunscreens I used before caused blemishes, so I never experienced eye irritation. Maybe because they were mineral sunscreens? I actually thought this one was mineral too when I bought it, but after reading reviews, it seems it's chemical? So maybe chemical sunscreens work better for me? Anyway... for the past two days using this, my eyes feel weird. It's a vague discomfort, but they just feel really heavy. I almost want to take out my contacts... I'm starting to think this might be what eye irritation feels like? Hmm... what should I do? This is so annoying.

After application, there's no white cast or sticky feeling, making it perfect for combination skin. It doesn't pill when applying makeup either. The scent isn't overpowering or chemical-like, so it's quite pleasant. Despite being lightweight, it has a high SPF, which I'm really satisfied with!
ConsIt stings my eyes. At first, I thought it might be due to strong sunlight or fatigue, but even in the shade, my eyes continued to hurt and sting. I realized this product was the culprit. While I'm satisfied with everything else, this is a major drawback.

Surprisingly, it seems to last quite long. It's also easy to remove. All Melixir products are vegan, and they offer packaging collection and effective recycling services.
ConsDue to the nature of organic UV filters, it may cause some eye irritation. Those with oily skin might find it a bit rich. However, the biggest drawback is... it's expensive for the amount you get, and the container is enormous. The product price includes the packaging collection cost. While I understand they avoided using hard-to-recycle tubes, I think they could have made the packaging significantly smaller.
Tip1. For those who can't see how much is left, try holding it up to a strong light! 2. Be sure to request container collection on the Melixir website! If you mix it with regular plastic waste, it won't get the recycling mark and won't be recycled properly!

I experience deep dryness and have thin skin texture, so I can't use physical sunscreens. Due to sensitivity to skin heat, I have to be very selective even with hybrid or chemical sunscreens. +++ Previously Used Product I've been using B*rain sunscreen without major complaints, but its stickiness and heavy feeling made me search for alternatives. While browsing Hwahae extensively, this product caught my eye. I knew Melixir was famous for their lip balms, but the sunscreen reviews were also good, so I decided to give it a try. 1. Scent It has a woody fragrance, which might not suit those who prefer sweet scents. However, I personally love this scent! 2. Texture and Application It's a smooth white cream. Lighter than an emulsion, but thicker than an essence. Spreads easily and evenly on the skin. No pilling, making it great for layering multiple times. 3. Absorption Initially feels slightly slick with a rich texture. After a while, it absorbs, leaving a soft, matte finish. 5. Packaging The chubby container is cute. The velvety texture of the bottle feels nice to touch. The pump design makes it easy to control the amount. From the shipping materials to the container, there's a clear focus on environmental consciousness. The brand even has its own cosmetics container collection campaign, making recycling empties hassle-free.
ConsAs someone who usually experiences deep dryness, I felt a slight tightness with this product. Applying a hydrating cream or essence as a base resolved the tightness issue. + I experienced some eye irritation, unfortunately.
