Perfect for summer as it's lightweight and non-sticky! The great ingredients mean it holds up even when your pores open up due to sweat in the summer heat.
ConsThere's a faint scent that's almost unscented, but reminds me of tires or rubber. It's temporary, but you might be surprised when you first apply it.
TipSince there's absolutely no white cast, it's perfect for daily use in the strong summer sun. I often go bare-faced, so this works really well for me.

First off, it's fragrance-free. The texture is like an essence - moisturizing, thin, and applies smoothly, which I loved. There's absolutely no white cast, and it's so lightweight that it would be perfect to use before makeup. I didn't experience any blemishes while using it!
ConsThe downside is that although it's fragrance-free, there's a slight old cream scent typical of sunscreens? It's not exactly a pleasant smell. It's also a bit richer than I expected, and the oiliness increases over time... (based on bare skin, combination skin type). Of course, it's still less greasy compared to other products!

Now I understand why people use chemical sunscreens! The texture absorbs quickly like a hydrating cream, which I really appreciate. White Cast: I didn't notice any significant white cast! Eye Irritation: I usually opt for mineral or hybrid sunscreens because chemical ones tend to sting my eyes or cause a burning sensation. However, after trying the Admang Ampoule Sunscreen recently, I realized there are gentle chemical options out there! This product also didn't cause any eye irritation or tingling. Ingredients: My skin tends to break out easily when I change my routine or use products that don't agree with me. I was pleased to see this contains cica! While I haven't experienced any blemishes while using this product, I can't say I've noticed a strong soothing effect. Perhaps it's actually preventing breakouts? Scent: I didn't notice any fragrance! It seems to be nearly unscented. For reference, I'm not particularly sensitive to product scents.
ConsPrice: Personally, I try to keep my sunscreen budget under 15,000 won for 50ml, so the price point is a bit high for me. However, because the product is so good, I'd consider purchasing it if it goes on sale for under 20,000 won!

I have combination dehydrated skin with excess oil, and usually when I apply sunscreen incorrectly, it's instant blemish party time. But not with this one! It's a bit rich for me in summer, but I think I'll use it generously during the changing seasons after summer. Also, when I layer foundation on top, there's absolutely no pilling or separation. And of course, no white cast.
ConsConsidering the price, I absolutely couldn't use this on my body. For body use, it's better to just buy a cheap one and slather it on... Oh, and I heard this is for indoor use... Should I only use it when working from home? Hmm. Then how exactly should this be used? I just want something that provides good protection with one application.
TipDon't use this when UV rays are strong, only use it for quick outings. Highly recommended for those looking for a lightweight, hydrating, and gentle option.

Just peel off the seal to use! - It doesn't cake up when applying makeup. I used it with the Hera Silky Foundation and there was no pilling at all. - The texture is lightweight yet moisturizing. It has a fluid consistency between an emulsion and an ampoule, with a slight beige tint. - There's no white cast. Since it's not a mineral sunscreen, you won't get that chalky look. - It doesn't cause blemishes on the face. It seems to be free of pore-clogging ingredients.
Cons- Be careful as it's quite runny and can drip easily! You don't need to apply much pressure. - The scent might be polarizing. Personally, I wasn't a fan. It has a somewhat plastic-like smell.

I decided to try this one because it's marketed as gentle on the skin. I'm impressed! It applies smoothly without leaving any white cast, and has a lovely watery texture that absorbs well into the skin. There's no stickiness at all - I even wore it on my feet and ankles with black sandals, and it didn't transfer or leave any residue. I've tried various sunscreens from Ol*** that were supposed to be good for acne-prone skin, but they only made my blemishes worse and were difficult to remove. The Banobagi sunscreen's watery formula is much more appealing to me! +30 day update: I absolutely love this sunscreen! I rarely update my reviews, but I had to share how amazing this is. The more I use it, the more I adore it. I often wear sleeveless tops in summer, and this sunscreen glides on effortlessly from my shoulders down to my hands and fingers without any stickiness. It's unbelievable! Once I finish my other sunscreens, I'm definitely sticking with this product.
ConsThe scent isn't particularly pleasant, but those who aren't sensitive to fragrances should be fine using it. +30 day update: I just wish they could improve the fragrance a bit. I'm somewhat sensitive to scents, and even when lending it to friends, I find myself saying, 'This sunscreen is amazing, but the smell is a bit off.' I think it would be even better if it were fragrance-free. The scent is hard to describe, but if they could address this issue, it would be perfect. Everything else about this product - the packaging, the formula - is excellent!
TipThe scent isn't particularly pleasant, but those who aren't sensitive to fragrances should be fine using it.

The extremely thin texture, which makes it absorb well, seems to be its biggest advantage. (The 2nd photo shows immediately after application) ▪︎ True to its name 'Repair Cica Sunscreen', it felt gentle on the skin. While I usually break out badly when using organic UV filter sunscreens incorrectly, this one didn't cause any new blemishes after application.
Cons▪︎ Perhaps due to my oily skin, I found it difficult to use because of the sticky feeling. I even considered using it on my body, but it was far too sticky for that. ▪︎ The amount is too small for the price, so I couldn't justify buying it at full price. I don't think it has enough standout features to warrant paying that much.
TipIf you have oily skin, applying some powder after the sunscreen helps reduce the stickiness and makes it more comfortable to wear.

The formula is incredibly hydrating, so it absorbs beautifully! 2. It's great as a base before makeup, and when followed by a primer, it helps makeup adhere well. 3. A little goes a long way, so I can even apply it to my neck. The excellent absorption also makes it perfect for applying to arms without feeling heavy in summer. 4. There's no white cast.
ConsWhile it was great for my sensitive skin and didn't cause any blemishes, I was a bit disappointed that it left white marks on dark clothing when applied to my arms.

As someone with oily skin, I always avoided oily sunscreens, but this one applies smoothly and lightly! It's not very sticky, so it feels refreshing to apply. There's no white cast! It goes on naturally and cleanly, making it great to use as a base layer. Even if you apply multiple layers, it doesn't noticeably whiten or make your skin look shiny, so it's perfect for layering. I have super sensitive skin that's prone to blemishes, but I haven't had any breakouts while using this product! If you have sensitive skin, give this a try!
ConsThe amount is less than expected, so it might be disappointing if you're planning to use it for your whole body... For me, it was a good amount to carry around and use on my face. It's not very resistant to sweat and water. I used it before going to the beach, but it wasn't as strong against liquids like sweat and water as I thought. You need to reapply frequently!
TipIf you're using this in winter or have dry skin, try mixing it with your moisturizer for a more hydrating and smoother application!

When squeezed onto the back of your hand, it's thin enough to slightly run. I prefer this lightweight cream texture over thicker sunscreens, which can be harder to apply and often cause makeup to pill. Usage experience: It applies as smoothly and moisturizing as a hydrating cream! There's no white cast, and it spreads easily without feeling heavy or sticky. Instead, it feels light and hydrating on the skin! However, it doesn't leave a greasy feeling either. Since there's no white cast, it won't lighten your face or adjust your complexion. Overall impression: Sunscreens often cause makeup to pill or lead to blemishes, but the Banobagi sunscreen didn't cause any skin issues, which I really appreciated! Since sunscreen is a year-round essential, I pay close attention to the ingredients. This one contains cica, which seems to make it less irritating for super sensitive skin.
ConsWhile most sunscreens these days have an SPF of 50, it's slightly disappointing that this one only has an SPF of 45.
