The essence-infused sun balm provides a lovely moisturizing effect. It doesn't feel heavy or sticky on the skin at all. The fragrance is quite pleasant too. Its compact size makes it perfect for on-the-go application.
ConsThe only downside is the small 10g size, which is a bit disappointing. It's even smaller than your average sun stick.

The scent: It has that typical sunscreen fragrance. User experience: For dry skin, it feels a bit rich right after application, and this sensation seems to last for over an hour! I think it would be even better to use in winter. The stick format makes it convenient to carry around in your bag during summer.
ConsThe product doesn't completely fill the container, so you can hear a slight noise when you shake it. I can barely notice any cooling effect. Even when I apply it while my face feels hot, I can't really tell the difference, unfortunately.

It's refreshing, and when applied, there's also a soothing sensation.
ConsBeing a stick format, the quantity is a bit disappointing. It would be great if they offered a larger size as well.

The stick format is great for easy application on the neck, and it doesn't leave any white cast.
ConsIt's a bit firm, so you need to apply it slowly to avoid putting too much stress on your skin.

It's moisturizing and easy to apply.
ConsIt's a shame the quantity is so small. When there's just a little left at the bottom, it's hard to use it all up, which feels wasteful.

It's solid, so there's no worry about it melting. 2. It absorbs well into the skin. 3. I love that it's fragrance-free.
ConsThere aren't really any downsides! If I had to nitpick, while it's portable, you need to move it around quite a bit when applying.

My review might differ from those who regularly use stick sunscreens. Absorption: I expected it to be stiff, but it glides on smoothly. Scent: I usually dislike artificial floral scents or overpowering fragrances, but this stick has a subtle herbal aroma that I quite enjoy. I wish they'd release an emulsion version too!
ConsIt applies so easily that I'm worried it might run out quickly. After application, it feels like my body is being coated in something.
TipNothing in particular to add!

It made it so easy to apply without missing spots, especially around the nose and facial contours. There's no artificial fragrance, which I found very agreeable. I initially thought it might have a runny texture since it's called an 'essence sun balm', but it actually has a firm, bouncy consistency. Unlike some sunscreens that are so thin you doubt their effectiveness, this one applies smoothly and feels substantial without being heavy. I love how it absorbs well while still providing that reassuring protection.
ConsAs with any stick product, there's always the issue of dust sticking to it. But I think wiping it clean with a tissue before use should do the trick!

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.ProsThe scent is a spicy musk... or perhaps closer to mosquito repellent or grass - apparently it's centella asiatica! I prefer sweeter scents so it's a bit hard to describe, but rather than being overpowering, it's subtle and gentle, so it's not off-putting. The formula contains Jeju volcanic seawater instead of purified water, and with 60% essence content, it's incredibly hydrating. It has a rich feel but absorbs smoothly, making it great as a base before makeup on dry facial skin. If you apply a lot, the glow really lasts for a long time. The texture might be hit or miss - those who want this type of formula will love it, while others might strongly dislike it!
ConsThe absorption... seems a bit slow given how hydrating it is. I applied it on my face and body while out, and the parts applied to my arms and legs felt sticky and transferable. Every time my skin rubbed against itself, it felt sticky, slippery, and greasy for a long time. It felt like it was getting all over the car seats. Be careful not to apply too much.
TipApply it to your face before makeup to create a hydrated base. Absolutely not recommended for body use... However, because it's so hydrating, you can lightly layer it over makeup too! I often worry about sunscreen effectiveness decreasing after some time wearing makeup, but this aspect seems really good with this product.

I tried it once and then gave it to my father to try. He found it so convenient that he keeps using it now. It's incredibly hydrating under the eyes, and the scent isn't overpowering. I also appreciated the inner lid feature.
ConsI avoided using it on areas with excess oil, like under the chin. When I applied it generously for long outings, it felt a bit heavy. Apart from the price, I don't think there are many downsides to this product.
TipIt's also great for layering on areas without large pores, like the cheekbones, forehead, and between the eyebrows. It provided much-needed hydration when the air conditioning was making my skin dry.
