It's moisturizing and absorbs well into the skin.
ConsIt keeps pilling and comes off like dead skin cells. It was hard to find products that work well with this before applying sunscreen, as it doesn't mesh well with other skincare products.
TipAlways use water-based products for your base skincare routine before applying sunscreen. Otherwise, you'll experience pilling.

It's so hydrating! I think the SPF rating changed at some point, but it's still perfect for daily use. I love it!
ConsThere's absolutely nothing to complain about. I just hope it stays available for a long time. Please don't discontinue it!

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!

It's a pleasant surprise! Right after application, it feels fresh without any stickiness, which is a big plus. The moisturizing effect is fantastic, making it ideal for those with dry skin. Its hydrating properties make it an excellent choice for the base layer in your skincare routine!
ConsWhile it feels moisturizing at first, over time it tends to pill, similar to dead skin cells rolling off. As someone with combination sensitive skin leaning towards oily, I unfortunately experienced some blemishes after using this product, which was disappointing. Although it seems to be fragrance-free, there's a distinct scent to this product that I personally didn't enjoy.

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!

Design: The packaging is sleek, and the product itself is slim and elongated, which I find more attractive than the chubby ones. Texture: The texture is very light and moisturizing, making it perfect for use before makeup without any pilling. Scent: There's no fragrance! It actually has a slight medicinal scent, which is great for someone like me who prefers no scent to an irritating one. Hydration/Oil and Moisture Balance: Despite its lightweight texture, unlike alcohol-based sunscreens, it doesn't leave my skin feeling dry. It maintains a wonderfully moisturized feel. It's truly, truly hydrating and lovely... Brightening: While applying and immediately after, I didn't notice any brightening effect. However, after absorption, when I compared both hands, the one with the product applied looked slightly brighter! Though the difference is very subtle.
ConsNothing negative to report! Oh, the SPF being 45 might be slightly disappointing for some.

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 feel like it's really helping to soothe my skin! It applies like an emulsion - feels fresh yet moisturizing. It's just fantastic! This is such an amazing sunscreen for summer!!!! I tried it for the first time through The Hwahae Testers, and I think I'll definitely repurchase when I run out!
ConsIt would have been perfect if it were completely unscented... There's that peculiar sunscreen smell, you know?
TipDon't use a heavy cream! Just finish with a light moisturizer before applying this, and you'll get a beautiful glow. Your makeup will go on smoothly too. Highly recommended!

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.
