The slight white cast also helps even out the skin tone.
ConsUnfortunately, it feels heavy and greasy on the skin. It even gets stuck in the pores, which is quite frustrating.

Since it's not peak summer yet, it's less sticky, so I'm applying it every day. It provides a slight brightening effect, making it a decent bare-face sunscreen.
ConsI feel like it might become very sticky when the weather gets hotter. Even in the current weather, it feels a bit sticky and heavy without air conditioning. It seems hard to cleanse off, so even when I only apply sunscreen, I need to do a double cleanse. It's not great as a base sunscreen before makeup. On my skin, it causes pilling and clumping due to the sunscreen.
TipRecommended as a bare-face sunscreen

Prefers basic skincare with hydrating products to combat inner dryness. - Shade 22-23. - Favorite sunscreen: Plant Nation Oxygen Water Light Moisture Sun Gel Emulsion. ✔ Type: Mineral sunscreen / Non-nano ✔ Eye irritation: None. The gentle ingredients make it comfortable to use with minimal risk of irritation. ✔ Texture: Spreads well. ✔ Application: Rolls on smoothly. Exceptionally soft for a mineral sunscreen. Slightly less creamy than chemical sunscreens, with a very subtle gritty feeling when applying. ✔ Moisture and oil balance: Doesn't feel very oily, with a slightly more noticeable hydrating effect. However, it doesn't add moisture like a cream would - the hydration is more apparent in how it applies. Skin doesn't feel particularly moisturized after use. ✔ Finish and shine: Neither completely matte nor overly dewy. Leaves a slight glow, finishing more on the hydrated side than matte, with a fresh feel. Has some weight to it, so oily, combination-oily, and combination skin types might prefer a lighter formula in warmer seasons as it can get slightly oily after 2-3 hours. ✔ Brightening effect and white cast: Does have a white cast and brightening effect. Those who use the recommended amount of sunscreen may find the white cast and skin brightening quite noticeable. It brightens in a plain white tone, not pinkish or bluish like some color correctors. + White cast longevity: The brightening effect slightly diminishes after about 3 hours but still noticeably maintains a whiter skin tone compared to bare skin. ✔ Makeup application after use: - Due to the white cast, brush-applied base makeup may show white streaks where the sunscreen moves, requiring touch-ups. - Base makeup appears lighter and whiter compared to application over chemical sunscreens or bare skin. - The brightening effect and slightly heavier texture improve pore coverage and overall coverage, resulting in a more polished skin appearance. However, the combined weight of this product and base makeup can feel heavier and thicker. - The thicker application may emphasize skin texture, so exfoliating before use is recommended for a smoother finish. - To prevent the sunscreen and base makeup from separating, it's best to use a puff to blend everything together for a seamless finish. ✔ Removal: - Water resistance: Doesn't easily wash off with running water. The white cast and brightening effect remain visible even after rinsing. - Cleanser removal: A thorough cleanse with foam cleanser may still leave a subtle white cast. Oil-based or moisturizing cleansers might be more effective for complete removal. * Even with thorough cleansing, using only foam cleanser might give the illusion of complete removal due to the moisturizing effects of subsequent skincare products. It's recommended to use an oil-based cleanser for more effective removal.
Cons✔ Personally, I found it disappointing that it was difficult to remove, and as someone with combination-oily skin, I think it would feel too thick and uncomfortable to use during the hot season (May - September).
Tip✔ Seasonal recommendations by skin type: While it has a fresh finish, it can feel slightly heavy over time. For oily, combination-oily, and combination skin types with oiliness, it's best used until around March or April. Dry skin types might enjoy this during less dry seasons or when looking for a refreshing sunscreen. ✔ Recommended for: Those wanting a brightening effect, those who don't mind thorough double cleansing, and those looking for a hydrating mineral or non-nano mineral sunscreen.

It offers slight tone correction without leaving a chalky appearance. Despite containing stearic acid, which my skin sometimes reacts to, I didn't experience any blemishes. While zinc oxide sunscreens often dry out my skin quickly, this one, in my opinion, wasn't particularly hydrating but didn't feel drying either.
ConsAs time passed, my T-zone became oily, so I wouldn't recommend it for those with oily skin. Also, it felt a bit heavy, making it difficult to reapply.
TipI'd recommend this for those with dry skin. If you have combination dehydrated skin like mine, make sure to apply a solid skincare base before using this product.

Moisturizing @@@@ It feels like it has a bit more oil than water? That's probably why it applies so smoothly! Great for dry skin types! Would also work well as a makeup base. White cast @@@ Doesn't leave a ghostly white cast, but naturally brightens your complexion! I loved it for a foundation-free look, but this could be a downside for some..!
ConsRich @@@@ It feels like it creates an oily film, which can feel a bit heavy when applying ㅠ I tried it twice - the first time it pilled terribly and I thought it was awful, but the second time it applied smoothly! It's not a product that always applies beautifully, haha.
