It doesn't feel thick or cakey, but rather gives a nice tone correction. I have a light complexion (21 shade) with both redness and yellow undertones. - The texture is smooth and moisturizing! It's as easy to apply as an emulsion, not thick or heavy at all. - While it has a high SPF, the ingredients are good and it causes minimal skin irritation. When I had seborrheic dermatitis flare-ups, I felt a slight tingling when applying sunscreen. Otherwise, despite having sensitive skin, it seems gentle and non-irritating.
Cons- It's quite rich in oils! It feels moisturizing when applied, but over time, the oil comes to the surface - that typical sunscreen residue feeling. As the moisture dries and the oil rises, it might feel a bit drying. With my combination skin, this level of oiliness actually felt moisturizing and was fine for me! - The emulsion-like texture makes it a bit slow to absorb when applying the recommended amount.
TipThis is my second bottle! I recommend this product for combination skin types. If you find sunscreens either too drying or too oily, make sure to properly hydrate your skin in your base skincare routine.

This reduces the chance of skin irritation, as most fragrances are not good for the skin. Contains 'stearic acid', which may negatively affect oily skin. It can potentially clog pores for those with oily skin. Be cautious! The rest of the ingredients are all skin-friendly. ✏ Good Application: Applies smoothly! Initially, it feels like a product with a bit of oil and moisture balance. However, it's not sticky and becomes powdery after about 5 minutes. Compared to Innisfree's Oat Mild Suncream, it definitely feels more powdery and absorbs well. ✏ Decent Staying Power: As a mineral sunscreen, it doesn't wash off easily with water. Even when rubbing with water, it stays on. There might be some smearing, but due to this formulation, it can feel slightly waxy when rubbed. It's hard to remove even with soap, so you'll need to use a cleansing product. ✏ Very Slight White Cast: Despite its hydrating properties and good absorption, there's minimal white cast compared to thicker formulas. The white cast is only visible under close inspection in bright light. ✏ Sun Protection: This product is SPF 50+ PA++++. SPF: Indicates the level of UVB protection PA: Shows how well it blocks UVA, indicated by the number of '+' For daily use, SPF 15-30 is usually sufficient, so this is a high index. PA++++ is also high, suitable for outdoor activities. In conclusion, it seems to provide good sun protection (when not removed).
Cons🤔 Even after cleansing with foam cleanser, there was a residual feeling. Although oil cleansing removes this sensation, for testing purposes, I could still feel something on my wrist where I applied the sunscreen. You'll need to cleanse thoroughly. 🤔 The price point...? For those concerned about value for money, the price might be a bit steep! Overall, it's decent, but if you're looking for cost-effectiveness, you might want to consider other products.
TipIt's best to apply it with your hands, gently patting it in for absorption, without using a puff. I recommend thorough cleansing when washing your face! *The attached photos are unfiltered except for the product shots*
