Many sunscreens are hard to spread no matter how much you rub, but this one applies smoothly like an emulsion, which made for a satisfying experience. It's also quite gentle on the skin. I sometimes feel a tingling sensation with sunscreens, but this one is very mild with no irritation. I didn't experience any burning sensation either. So far, I haven't had any blemishes from using it. Oh, and I've been out in direct sunlight while wearing this, and it seems to provide good protection - no sunburn!
ConsI usually just apply sunscreen when I go to work out, but with this product, I noticed it got quite oily by the end of my session. My skin looked overly dewy, almost shiny, which was disappointing. If you prioritize a matte finish, you might want to avoid this one. Also, it's not the easiest to remove, so make sure to cleanse thoroughly! Even after using cleansing water, I noticed some residue left behind.
TipIf you find it's getting a bit too dewy, try applying some oil-control powder over it. That helps maintain a matte look for longer!

It has a slight brightening effect, not as much as Innisfree's, but it's light enough to wear under a mask. Since it's white, I couldn't see any transfer onto the mask! Plus, it offers great sun protection.
ConsIt has a typical sunscreen texture, but it's not particularly moisturizing or quick-absorbing. More precisely, it leaves a slightly oily residue, so when applied to the face, it feels like it remains even after cleansing, and I actually experienced some blemishes. I'd recommend double cleansing and plan to use it as a body sunscreen instead!
TipI wouldn't necessarily recommend this for dry skin types, but it could be suitable for those without super sensitive skin. (I'm like a blobfish - everything seems to irritate me)

Absorbs like a dream Among mineral sunscreens, some can be thick and apply unevenly, leaving streaks. But this one glides on smoothly like a hydrating sunscreen, spreading effortlessly. 2. Natural brightening effect It feels more like a hybrid sunscreen than a 100% mineral one. As you can see in the photo, it has a slight translucency, so it doesn't leave a stark white cast even when applied generously. However, note that it's a white tone-up rather than peach or pink, which might not be everyone's cup of tea. 3. Deeply hydrating It's incredibly moisturizing! Despite being a mineral sunscreen, there's no dryness or tightness. The finish is more of an oil-based glow rather than a dewy look. Definitely not a matte finish! 4. Plays well with makeup We usually apply sunscreen right after skincare, before foundation. Some sunscreens can make foundation pill or slide off, but this one allows your base makeup to adhere beautifully. However, as mentioned earlier, it gives quite a dewy finish, so if you have oily skin, you'll need to set it well with powder. 5. Blemish-free experience While mineral sunscreens are said to be gentler as they physically block UV rays (unlike chemical sunscreens), I've heard they can be tough to remove completely and might clog pores. However, I didn't experience any blemishes or adverse reactions!
Cons1. Typical mineral sunscreen residue after cleansing Every time I use a mineral sunscreen, no matter how thoroughly I cleanse, there's always a slightly tight feeling left on my face. Unfortunately, this one's no exception... 2. Price point The regular price of 18,000 won seems a bit steep... Might be worth waiting for a sale...
TipFor optimal sun protection, use about two finger-lengths of product!
