It's easy to remove with just foam cleanser.
ConsIf you apply it too close to your eyes, you'll be crying all day long. On the bright side, it's great for waking you up in the morning when you apply it!
TipBe careful not to apply it too close to your eye area...

The menthol ingredient gives a slight cooling sensation that's definitely noticeable - perfect for summer use with its refreshing and subtle minty scent. There's no white cast, and it's gentle enough for daily use without irritation. I also appreciate that it's free from coral-harming ingredients.
ConsWhile it doesn't sting the eyes, the cooling effect might be a bit intense when applied near the eye area. It's best to avoid applying it too close to your eyes.

Highly recommended for those who experience facial heat during summer! Personally, I found it refreshingly cool without any eye irritation.
ConsI was slightly disappointed by the lack of a brightening effect. (I tend to prefer brightening moisturizers with SPF!)

The thin consistency allows for easy and even spreading. • Effectiveness: I found it a bit intense for facial use, so I only tried it once on my face. When applied to the body, I didn't feel much cooling on arms or legs, but it provided a refreshing sensation on the back of the neck and shoulders. Seems suitable for summer use. I appreciated that it spread evenly without leaving any white cast.
ConsWhen applied to the face, there was irritation around the lips. The philtrum area, in particular, felt quite intense. It wasn't just a cool feeling, but more like applying a pain relief patch - it felt hot at first, then cooled down with a 'whoosh'. This intensity made it uncomfortable to use on the face. The sensation was similar to sweating and then feeling the coolness from a fan, but without actual perspiration. Initially, this effect was limited to the area around the lips (philtrum, nasolabial folds, slightly on cheeks and chin), but over time it spread to under the eyes and above the eyebrows. While some might enjoy this intense cooling effect, it wasn't for me. I was also cautious about getting it in my eyes, as I suspected it might cause stinging.
TipThis product seems better suited for body use rather than facial application. Since it contains ingredients that protect marine life, I took it on my trip to Nha Trang and used it up completely!

It gives a cool sensation like menthol or mint when applied! It spreads easily without leaving any white cast. When I applied it to my face, the menthol ingredient was a bit intense. However, when used on the body, it felt nice and cool with almost no stickiness. It's perfect for use on the body during hot summer days. I'd recommend it for outdoor activities or exercise.
ConsWhen applied to the face, it was quite irritating and caused a burning sensation for an hour, which was quite uncomfortable. It felt like applying a cold patch to the face. It also caused severe eye irritation, making my eyes water. If you have super sensitive skin, make sure to patch test before applying it to your face!
TipApplying it to the back of your neck gives an instant cooling effect that feels refreshing! During hot summer days, applying it to the back of your neck can provide a cooling sensation for about an hour.

As a sunscreen nomad who prioritizes how well it absorbs, I can confidently say this has an excellent texture that would satisfy any skin type. It feels like applying an emulsion, leaves no stickiness, and absorbs so well you might forget you've applied it in the morning. That's how great the absorption is. It's a safe choice overall - good ingredients, no overwhelming scent, and the design and size make it perfect to toss in your bag.
ConsRedness? Heat sensation? To be honest, this sunscreen only pretends to be cooling. As someone with facial capillaries working overtime, redness is my biggest concern. After washing my face and drying my hair in the morning, I'm left with intense redness. Applying this sunscreen gives a cool sensation, like applying menthol or peppermint. However, when you actually touch your face, you don't feel any temperature drop, cooling effect, or reduction in heat. The redness and warmth remain unchanged. It only provides a cool feeling and impression. This is the most disappointing aspect. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone seeking immediate relief from severe redness or heat sensation. However, I would recommend it for its cool feeling, how well it absorbs, and its good ingredients. I've recently been testing 3-4 sunscreens consecutively for Hwahae, and this one had by far the best absorption (as someone with combination dehydrated skin who really dislikes stickiness).

I was looking for something to apply during tennis breaks, hoping for a cooling effect. I stumbled upon this cooling product, and it's absolutely fantastic. It absorbs well, doesn't pill when reapplied, and there's no stickiness or white cast. I find myself reaching for it not just for tennis, but for all kinds of outdoor activities.
ConsBe careful not to apply it too close to your eyes! The intense cooling effect might sting. Make sure to leave about 3-4mm of space around your eyes when applying.
TipYou can reapply it as often as you like without any pilling. It even works over foundation without causing issues, so don't hesitate to touch up when you're outdoors!

It also has a subtle minty scent that I love. This fragrance might be a hit or miss for some people. There's no excessive packaging, no sticky feeling, and it doesn't sting my eyes.
ConsI mainly use brightening moisturizers. I don't use foundation or cushion separately, just sunscreen with strong brightening effects, or a combination of sunscreen and brightening moisturizer for milder effects. This one does have some brightening effect, but it's not very strong, which is a bit disappointing for me. It does even out the skin tone moderately.

I was so curious about this sunscreen with a cooling effect, and I'm thrilled I got to try it out. - Texture: The formula feels like a hydrating moisturizer, and after applying, it dries without any stickiness. I prefer sunscreens without a white cast for my arms and legs in summer to avoid staining clothes, and this one seems perfect for that. - Scent: It has a peppermint fragrance. Personally, I find this kind of scent more appealing in cosmetics than floral ones. When applied, there's a slight cooling sensation, which I think contributes to the cooling effect.
ConsThe peppermint scent might be a bit strong for some people's tastes... It also has a slight medicinal smell, reminiscent of muscle rubs.
TipSince it's not sticky, it would be great for arms and legs rather than the face. You can feel the cooling effect, and since it's not a mineral sunscreen, it's less likely to stain clothes.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst off, I loved how it applies smoothly, feels moisturizing, and isn't sticky at all! There was no white cast or pilling, and it has a lightweight texture. The scent was pleasant and not overwhelming. What really stood out was the cooling effect when applied - it's definitely the most powerful cooling sensation I've experienced among all the cooling sunscreens I've tried!
ConsThe cooling effect is so intense that it actually feels quite hot on the skin. Because of this, it might come across as a bit irritating. I'd caution those with super sensitive skin to be careful, as they might find it quite stimulating. I highly recommend checking the ingredients list on Hwahae before purchasing!
