It's a kind sunscreen that considers both the skin and the ocean. The lotion formula applies smoothly and doesn't leave a white cast, so you can apply it lightly even though it's a waterproof sunscreen. The SPF PA rating is suitable for active use. The large size allows you to apply it generously over the body.
ConsThe product contains quite a few active ingredients, so it's important to carefully check the ingredients before applying it to the face. If applied excessively, it can feel a bit sticky and shiny.

However, I was glad to find that it is actually safe for the ocean! (Although I won't be swimming in the ocean given the current situation). The packaging is clean, and the texture has a creamy, yogurt-like transparent appearance. The main advantage is that it doesn't irritate the eyes. As it's quite oily, it would be suitable for dry skin types. The application is smooth and blends well.
ConsThe downside is that the texture is oily and sticky, which is a bit disappointing. Nowadays, I just apply sunscreen and live an active lifestyle, but later on, it can feel a bit greasy and tacky, almost as if I'm sweating. Those who dislike oily sunscreens should avoid this. Additionally, the fragrance is quite strong, so it may be polarizing.
TipI discovered a great tip today - this sunscreen pairs well with a matte cushion foundation! No matter how hot it gets, the matte base can prevent any stickiness. After applying my skincare and this sunscreen, which has a creamy texture, I can use a matte base product on top, and it works perfectly! The makeup application is smooth, and the coverage is great. Of course, the longevity is not as good as using the matte product alone, but it works well as a makeup base.

When I apply it, I squeeze out the product several times and gently pat it in to help it absorb. With this routine, a 50ml bottle of sunscreen lasts me about a month. The sunscreen I used before this one was a mineral sunscreen, which would leave a white cast and make my skin feel dry in the summer, even after applying my basic skincare. However, this product is the complete opposite. When I first squeezed it onto the back of my hand, the texture was neither too runny nor too thick - it was just right. When I apply it, I get a slight glow and a nice, moisturized feel. And there's absolutely no white cast at all. I'm not a big fan of heavy white casts, so this is a big plus for me. But I think this could be a pro or a con depending on the user. If you like the blurring effect of a sunscreen white cast for skin perfecting, you may want to keep that in mind.
ConsSince I have quite sweaty skin, I generally don't prefer very sticky sunscreens, especially in the summer. When I first used this product, I got the impression that it was a bit on the sticky side for my personal preference. So I'm a little hesitant about using it during the summer. Also, I can detect a fragrance when I apply this sunscreen. The fragrance isn't bad, but I personally prefer unscented products, so that's a bit disappointing. However, for those who want a moisturizing, waterproof sunscreen without a white cast, the formula seems quite good.

Texture The thin texture allowed me to apply it smoothly and evenly. You can see the texture in the attached photo. 2. Reef-safe & Waterproof I learned about the term 'reef-safe' through this product, and I really liked that it was made with the marine ecosystem in mind. With its high UV protection and waterproof properties, this would be a great sunscreen to use for water activities. 3. Makeup Application At first, it seemed quite oily when I applied it, so I was worried it would be difficult to use for makeup. But after it absorbed, it worked fine for makeup application. It does take a bit longer to fully absorb, though this may vary depending on skin type. 4. No White Cast 5. Volume & Price The generous volume makes it easy to apply all over the body without feeling like a burden. The price of around 16,000 won on Naver seems reasonable considering the volume. - Great for water activities sunscreen
Cons1. Stickiness & Absorption I don't really like sunscreens because of the stickiness, and this product is extremely sticky. I usually prefer using sunstick, but this is much stickier and has much poorer absorption than the sunstick I used before, even worse than the 365 Round Lab sunscreen I used previously. The oily feeling when first applied does go away after absorption. 2. Fragrance The product has a strong, typical sunscreen fragrance. 3. Irritation I don't have very sensitive skin, so I usually don't have issues with most products. But I had my mom try it, and she said her skin started itching as soon as she applied it on the back of her hand. Looking at the ingredients, I see there are 6 potential allergens, which is a bit disappointing. But for those without very sensitive skin, it may not be a big problem.

I've been diligently applying it all over my body and it's been great. It's perfect for this scorching heat, even hotter than the beach, and I'm satisfied that it's reef-safe. There's also no irritation.
ConsHowever, while the sunscreen spreads cleanly and evenly, there is a slight stickiness after application, and the characteristic sunscreen scent is present. <Personally, I don't particularly enjoy the stickiness and the distinctive fragrance.> That's the only aspect I'm a bit disappointed about, but everything else is satisfactory!

This was my first time using a waterproof sunscreen, and I could definitely feel how water-resistant it is. So I think it would be great to use when going swimming or being around a lot of water.
ConsThe texture was a bit runny, which surprised me a little, and it also had a slightly sticky feel when applied. Personally, the stickiness didn't bother me too much, but if you dislike that kind of texture, you may want to think it over.

It feels light and easy to apply. ✨No White Cast - No white cast! It seems like I can use it comfortably as a daily product. ✨Volume - The volume is also sufficient, so if you only apply it to your face, you might be able to use it throughout the summer.
ConsThere was some stickiness and shininess, but I think it was even worse for me since I have an oily skin type!! I would recommend it more for those with dry or combination skin types!
TipYou need to be careful with the amount you use..haha I accidentally used a bit too much 😂🥲

Cons-While it is moisturizing, there is a slight oily/greasy feel, so the finish is not as refreshing as I would like. This is more noticeable when applied on the body (but not as much on the face). -I accidentally touched my eyes with the sunscreen-applied hand, and it was quite painful. This is not a major issue, but I wanted to mention it as a heads up for anyone else who might experience the same.

I recommend it for dry skin types. ❤️After application, there is a sense of the skin being coated, which makes me feel it will provide good UV protection. ❤️The fragrance is similar to cotton. ❤️The consideration for the environment is good. The reef-safe and waterproof features are a big advantage when using it for water activities, as it allows you to use it with peace of mind.
Cons❤️Although I prefer a product that finishes refreshingly, even after applying it to my face and using powder, there was still a sticky feeling left behind. ❤️It seems more suitable for body use! After about 5 minutes, the stickiness does decrease somewhat.
TipA sunscreen suitable for using on the body during water activities

It's a mixed sunscreen that combines the best features of mineral and chemical sunscreens, so the spreadability was really good. There aren't many high SPF sunscreens with good spreadability, so I'd recommend this mixed sunscreen to those who have been looking for one with high SPF and good spreadability. 👍🏻
ConsThe product itself has a formula that feels both oily and watery, so it might feel a bit sticky for oily skin types or in the summer. However, for dry skin types, this could actually be a benefit!
TipThanks to the high protection factor, I've been applying it to my arms, legs, and body as well. Especially these days when the sun is strong, be sure to apply a generous amount of sunscreen!
