I put on sunscreen in the morning and keep it in my bag to reapply later. It's great, especially when I go swimming in the summer - it gives me peace of mind and doesn't leave a white cast. It feels more like applying a moisturizer than sunscreen.
ConsThere's nothing really disappointing, but I'm not sure about claims like it being good for pores.

I really love products like this ㅋㅋ
ConsIt has a slightly sticky feeling I was hoping for a more powdery finish When I applied it and went out, the wind made my hair stick to my face...ugh I didn't feel the cooling effect;; I didn't feel the pore tightening effect either;
TipI apply skincare first, and then this product on top for a double protective layer It gives me a powdery, shielded feeling ㅋ

Centella & Panthenol The strange thing is that I usually get breakouts when using Centella and Panthenol, but that didn't happen this time. Even though the Centella content is not high, it seems to have been just right for my skin. As for the Panthenol, the promotional material says it's a high concentration, but I don't know why I didn't get any breakouts. I think the Centella and Panthenol are blended together perfectly, and the concentration is not as high as claimed. I'm glad I was finally able to use these good ingredients, Centella and Panthenol. 2. Stickiness The reviews mentioned it was sticky, so I tried spreading it all over my face with my hands. But there was no sticky residue left, so I just applied it directly with the stick a couple of times. The stickiness is about the same as when I apply a generous amount of regular organic sunscreen. It's not overly sticky. 3. White Cast It seems to be an organic sunscreen, and as expected, there was no white cast. 4. Powder Application Essential for Makeup After applying it 2-3 times, I did my usual makeup, and it was similar to wearing an organic sunscreen. In the summer, powdering is essential. When I went out and about, the oil did come through, but after powdering again at home, it didn't look greasy and stayed matte. It should work well for makeup application too.
ConsNo pore tightening No cooling effect (I was asked to write 20 characters, so here it is.)
TipApplying it in 2mm layers was easy and just right. Based on other reviews, applying too much can cause it to break. It seems good to use as a touch-up product when sweating or the sunscreen starts to wear off during outdoor activities.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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 of all, it's made of a stick so it's easy to carry around. These days when the UV rays are strong, it's a bit worrying to just apply sunscreen and go out. But this is great for carrying around and reapplying regularly.👏🏻👏🏻 1️⃣ Design Feature Unlike other stick products, this one has an inner cap inside the lid, which makes it feel more hygienic and well-thought-out. 2️⃣ Application It's not too soft or too hard, and applies smoothly on the skin without any irritation. 3️⃣ Moisture With about 63% essence content, it's hydrating and leaves a dewy glow. On hot days, it can be stuffy to apply sunscreen over your base makeup, but this essence sun stick allows you to skip the base and just apply this one product.👍🏼 4️⃣ Ingredients The ingredients seem better than regular sunscreens. It uses desalinated Jeju volcanic seawater instead of regular water, and has a cooling effect that helps soothe and calm the skin. ✔️ The key differences from other sun sticks are the size, design, and the high essence content. It's very convenient to carry around, doesn't feel heavy or stuffy, and keeps the skin hydrated and cool. The good ingredients make it suitable for all skin types - oily, dry, and sensitive. It's a gentle, non-whitening, and hydrating sun product that I'd recommend to those looking for such a sunscreen!😍
ConsThe cooling effect is there, but I wish it felt even more refreshing. I'm not sure about the pore tightening claim, but that didn't seem to work for me. Also, it's inconvenient that the stick doesn't go back in smoothly after twisting it out.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.Pros🔎This is a Hwahae Trial Reviewer review. I evaluated the product honestly and transparently without any additional guidance. To ensure an accurate review, I did not use any other skincare products (masks, peels, scrubs, etc.). I was not very familiar with sun care products containing essence, but thanks to the Hwahae Trial Reviewer program, I was able to use this product for the first time. Some sun care products left my skin feeling dry after application, but the Ilaisha Watery Touch Essence Sun Balm immediately made my skin feel moisturized and as if an extra layer of skin barrier had been added. I could feel a cooling sensation upon application, and the subtle, refreshing herbal scent was comfortable and not off-putting. Being in a stick form and without any white cast, I can easily reapply it throughout the day, so I think I'll be using it often this summer. I usually keep my skincare very lightweight during the hot weather, but the Watery Touch Essence Sun Balm contains 6 moisturizing essence ingredients, allowing me to provide sun protection and nourishment simultaneously, which was very convenient. I've used a few stick-type products before, but this was my first time encountering one with a dual cap. I really liked that this feature helps keep the cosmetic in a cleaner and better condition. Many high SPF products require double cleansing, but this one washed off easily in one go. It's easy to swipe on, and removes cleanly, so I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a simple and quick sun care routine.
ConsWhile I could clearly feel the benefits of sun protection, skin cooling, and the all-in-one sun care and moisturizing effects, the pore tightening effect did not stand out to me significantly. I'll need to use it consistently for a longer period to evaluate this aspect.
TipOnce the stick is raised, it cannot be pushed back down, so please only turn the dial to dispense the amount you need!

These days, I've been working 7 days a week, so I was too tired in the morning to properly apply my skincare and sunscreen, and it would take too long, so I couldn't wear it. But thanks to this product, I can now apply sunscreen when I go to work, which is great. Since it contains essence, I don't need to apply as much of my basic skincare, so I have a bit more time. It also seems to be less drying on my face compared to other products. But of course, it's not as moisturizing as my basic skincare products, so be sure to apply those thoroughly as well. 2. These days, even if I can't apply it at home, the stick format allows me to apply it on my commute, at the office, or outdoors anytime. And now that mask-wearing is no longer mandatory, there's no more discomfort from wearing a mask over sunscreen. 3. It absorbs quickly after application, so it doesn't easily transfer onto my mask or hands. 4. There's no white cast, which is great. Products with white cast can get clumpy when repeatedly putting on and taking off a mask, and end up sticking to my face or falling off. But this product doesn't have that issue. 5. The size is perfect, fitting in the palm of my hand, so it's easy to carry and quickly apply when I'm out.
ConsIt says it helps reduce pores, but I'm honestly not sure about that. I'm just satisfied that my pores look less visible when I apply it.

ConsThe disappointing points!! There is some stickiness, which may be burdensome for oily skin types. There is one ingredient that can clog pores.
