Pros
My skin used to feel dry and uncomfortable with the previous sunscreen, but this one is really moisturizing. It feels like a protective layer on my skin and I don't experience any discomfort for a long time.
Cons
I couldn't find any disappointing aspects! It may not have the same level of spreadability as the organic sunscreen, but that's a minor point.

Pros
I have sensitive skin that is prone to breakouts if the ingredients in cosmetics don't match my combination-dry skin type even a little bit. 👍 Texture and Application The texture is not heavy and has a moderate moisture content, and despite being a mineral sunscreen, it applies smoothly and has a moisturizing feel. 👍 Natural Tone-up My face doesn't look unnaturally pale and puffed up, and it achieves a natural tone-up. 👍 Moisture Retention After Application The mineral sunscreens I've used before felt dry right after application, but this one maintains a moisturizing feel for a decent amount of time.
Cons
😕 Whitening Effect Over Time I'm not sure how to describe it, but it feels like the sunscreen dries up and my face starts looking a bit unnaturally pale... 😕 Less Than 100% Ideal Ingredients I noticed that the formula contains fragrance. I think it would have been better if they hadn't included that.
Tip
People with dry skin types may find that mineral sunscreens can feel drying over time after application.

Pros
Combination skin, 30s, winter. For these 3 reasons, I was using a moisturizing mineral sunscreen, and I won the Hwahae Trial Reviewer spot and tried this product right away. First of all, the package is fresh and pretty. It's vegan and non-nano mineral, so it can be used safely even by those with sensitive skin. It says on the back that there is no white cast, and for a mineral sunscreen, it doesn't make the skin look too pale. The skin tone looks about half a shade brighter, like when you apply a tone-up cream. It applies moisturizing and finishes with a refreshing feel. I was worried it might be drying in the winter, but if you apply a good moisturizer base, it's not drying or anything. I usually just lightly apply a base in the morning for makeup, so the makeup doesn't slip, and I don't get too oily in the afternoon, but even if I apply a slightly oily cream, this sunscreen pairs well with it, leaving my skin in a good condition for makeup. As I use it, I keep reaching for it, so I want to purchase it again next time.
Cons
There wasn't really anything bad. For those who need a mineral sunscreen, the benefits remain while the drawbacks are not felt.
Tip
In the winter, if you moisturize the skin well before makeup, and then apply this product, the stickiness is reduced a bit, so it's good for those with combination skin.

Pros
As someone with extremely dry skin, I've experienced a lot of stress when choosing sunscreen. Mineral sunscreens tend to be drying, while organic ones can be harsh on the skin, making it very difficult to find the right one.... Looking at factors like dryness, application, and tone-up, this sunscreen seems quite decent! It's vegan and the brand even donates to environmental causes, which makes me quite interested in it. These days, there's a lot of controversy around SPF ratings, and products with very high UVA/UVB protection can be overly irritating. It's really hard to find ones under SPF 50, so this one seems alright by my standards. The watery texture makes it apply beautifully, and the intense hydration is great, even though it requires multiple applications. The main concern is how drying it becomes after application. Mineral sunscreens can feel powdery, but this one seems a bit less drying. However, for someone with extremely dry skin like me, it may still cause some tightness, even if you build up a good base. I think this would be suitable for normal to combination skin, at least until early fall. The tone-up effect is not as dramatic as I expected, but it's better than looking overly white from the sunscreen, which I prefer.
Cons
It doesn't seem to provide infrared protection... but that's hard to find in the market anyway. Sunscreen companies really need to step up and realize that infrared rays penetrate deep into the skin. The price is a bit burdensome unless it's on sale. It would be great if they had a mini version to carry around. The packaging is also difficult to recycle.

Pros
💚Spreadability Mineral sunscreens can sometimes be difficult to apply and can feel heavy, but this product spreads on smoothly without any of those issues. It's not overly drying and despite being a mineral sunscreen, there's minimal white cast - a bonus! 💚Vegan The packaging came in a simple, compact box without any unnecessary bulk. I just learned that this is a vegan-certified product - the little rabbit symbol on the packaging was a nice touch. I was impressed by the brand's eco-friendly approach.
Cons
I didn't really have any negatives. It was my first time trying this brand, but that wasn't an issue.

Pros
I usually apply moisturizing sunscreen, and I'm currently using the Esthe* sunscreen. The Kiwi Glow sunscreen can be described as 'airy' in one word. It's not as moisturizing as the product I usually use, but it's not dry either, and it applies very thinly and lightly. The finish is more 'smooth' than 'velvety', but there was no tightness even in the winter. I think it will become a sunscreen I'll use a lot in the summer. Despite being mineral-based, there is almost no white cast, and the application is smooth and nice. It's a pretty good sunscreen, and it's one of the top 3 products I received from the Hwahae Trial Reviewers.
Cons
There's nothing particularly bad, but those who want a glowy look might not like it. It's highly recommended for those who want a sunscreen that doesn't look like it's there.

Pros
It seems to have a slight toning effect when applied. And it definitely has good spreadability. After applying, my face felt comfortable without any tightness!!! Since it's vegan, it seems to be very gentle. I used it without any trouble or skin discomfort after applying!👍
Cons
Personally, I didn't have any disappointments. The packaging had a narrow opening, so it came out in small amounts, which was good.. It's unremarkable, without any flaws.
Tip
It's best to apply it before doing your makeup and let it absorb a bit first~

Pros
- It says 'non-comedogenic', but there's no white cast. - It also feels less stuffy and more powdery. Typically, non-comedogenic products tend to be drying, but that wasn't the case here.
Cons
- I tried it several times when looking for it, but there's really nothing disappointing about it. It's an unfamiliar brand, so I was a bit hesitant to apply it, but I'm using it with great satisfaction.
Tip
- It doesn't sting the eyes, so I can apply it comfortably around the eye area.

Pros
I have combination skin with dehydration. 1. Color There is no whitening effect at all. I usually use a tone-up sunscreen, so the color was different. 2. Fragrance It has a subtle floral scent, not the typical cosmetic smell, which I liked. 3. Texture It felt very moisturizing and smooth when applied, as if it was locking in the moisture. Even though I have oily skin, I was worried it might feel greasy or leave an oily residue, but since it's a watery sunscreen, it absorbed well without any tightness or heaviness. 4. Review It's really hard to find a sunscreen without a whitening effect, so I feel like I've discovered a new product through the Hwahae Trial Reviewer program. It's a vegan sunscreen, and even though my skin isn't particularly sensitive, I feel like my skin has been looking better since I switched to this sunscreen.
Cons
I wish they had a larger size available. Since I usually apply a generous amount of sunscreen, I think I'll go through this one quickly.

Pros
1. Less Whitening Effect While it's not completely devoid of whitening effect, it is on the lighter side. It appears white when applied but mostly disappears as it gets absorbed. 2. Soft, Powdery Finish If you're looking for a sunscreen without an oily feel, I highly recommend this. It's powdery but doesn't leave an extremely drying sensation. 3. No Eye Irritation Sunscreens can be so annoying when they sting the eyes, but this one doesn't cause any irritation at all! I've been using it for over a week and haven't experienced any stinging. (Seems like a great sunscreen to use in the summer.) 4. Easy Application It applies smoothly and evenly. The texture is similar to a moisturizing lotion, not a water-based cream. 5. Eco-friendly The packaging and overall design seem to minimize unnecessary waste, which I appreciate.
Cons
It's quite powdery, so I think it would be good for summer use. While I'm not completely dry-skinned, I'm closer to dry than oily, so I did experience a slightly drying sensation. I imagine this would be an excellent sunscreen for those with oily skin types. The floral scent is mentioned, but I only noticed it when reading the reviews - I thought it was just a neutral lotion-like fragrance when applying it. The scent isn't overpowering, but it's also not my personal preference.
Tip
When applying this powdery sunscreen with your hands, it may cause the makeup to shift or flake later on. I recommend pressing it into the skin using a makeup sponge or cushion to help it absorb better and prevent any makeup issues.
