When choosing a sunscreen, it's crucial to consider your skin type and specific needs. While this product may work well for some, it might not be suitable for everyone, especially those with dry or sensitive skin. Always patch test new products and discontinue use if you experience any irritation or adverse reactions.

Please note that I've only tried about three sunscreens, and this review is based on two weeks of use.

For those with dry skin, beware - this might make you feel unexpectedly oily. That was the biggest drawback for me. After using this, I noticed an increase in small blemishes on my face. Oddly enough, it doesn't feel greasy when applied to my hands or arms, but my face becomes excessively oily.

Looking at the ingredients, there's a high alcohol content. Over time, my skin feels deeply dry underneath, yet appears shiny on the surface - it's really unpleasant. Unlike my previous sunscreen stick that felt like it melded with my skin, this one seems to sit on top of my skin after a while.

Lastly, I ordered this from Olive Young, and the packaging arrived a bit dirty, with some kind of residue on it.

As someone with combination dehydrated and sensitive skin, I had high hopes for this sunscreen due to its reputation for good UV protection and easy application. I'm pleased to say it lives up to the hype! The sunscreen applies smoothly and provides excellent sun protection. I also appreciate the subtle brightening effect it gives my complexion.

크로노 뷰티 젤 [SPF50+/PA++++]

After applying toner and emulsion, my skin felt firm, but when I put this on, it felt like there was a coating. When I applied makeup, it seemed to pill slightly, and there was a bit of excess oil, which was disappointing

There's no white cast, the scent is pleasant, and it seems to absorb well into the skin

This product doesn't provide as much brightening effect, so it's perfect for gifting to parents who apply it very well. It makes your skin look smooth and beautiful, as if you've used a primer!

There's nothing bad to say! The scent might be divisive for some, but it didn't bother me at all. It just has a typical sunscreen fragrance.

Along with Ally's brightening moisturizer sunscreen, this is my holy grail sunscreen. When I bought it on Naver, they were incredibly generous with the gratis items, making it excellent value for money. I really loved using it. I purchased it after seeing its impressive performance in a sunscreen test, and it not only provides great UV protection but also doesn't cause any skin issues or discomfort. It's truly the best!

Since it absorbs slowly, wait a bit after applying it to your face.

I applied it to my eyelids without thinking and it stung and tingled. Be careful with that area.

This white cream has a fluffy texture reminiscent of whipped cream. It's rich enough that I apply it directly after toner and serum, in place of my usual moisturizer. As someone with combination skin, this works well for me. It can sting a bit on the eyelids, but it's fine around the eyes. There's a slight white cast and it takes a little time to absorb. While it doesn't brighten as much as a brightening moisturizer, it does give a subtle healthy glow to the complexion. I bought this instead of the Anessa facial gel when I visited Japan. I believe it's a face and body product. Given its strong sun protection, it's best removed with a cleansing oil. I wouldn't recommend it for the height of summer though.

There's nothing particularly bad about it. The scent, maybe? But that's unavoidable with sunscreens, so I can't really say there are any downsides.

This sunscreen provides exceptional UV protection. It's definitely one of the top-rated Japanese sunscreens out there.

The price is on the higher side, so it's best to buy during sales. In the dead of winter, it might feel a bit tight on the skin, likely due to the zinc oxide. Also, you'll need BB cream or foundation for blemish coverage. It's frustrating that we don't have products with such reliable sun protection available domestically.

This product is a go-to for its excellent absorption and perfect sun protection! I've experienced its incredible effectiveness firsthand at Mount Fuji, where the snow-reflected sunlight is intense. While others got sunburned, those who applied this stayed completely protected. It's waterproof, goes on clear, and even has a slight skin-enhancing effect that makes your complexion look better.

I've stocked up on this and use it regularly! Highly recommended! Go for it!

I couldn't find any drawbacks... I'm completely satisfied!

It doesn't sting my eyes and absorbs well. I've been using this for years now.

Every time I used it, my atopic dermatitis flared up. I had to give up after a few tries

It doesn't get excessively oily and keeps that fresh, matte feeling for a long time

It was moisturizing and really great for dry skin, but the scent was... quite overwhelming.

It absorbs quickly into the skin and has proven sun protection, making it perfect for summer use!

Being a sunscreen, you can still tell you've applied something to your skin. While I was hoping for a completely undetectable feel, I think this level of sensation is acceptable.

As someone who typically avoids hand creams due to their stickiness, I was pleasantly surprised by the Ally sunscreen. It feels wonderfully light and powdery smooth upon application.
