ConsMy face became reddish, and my skin peeled off like dandruff. I thought the symptoms were only temporary around my eyes, but it spread to my cheeks as well. +) I was diagnosed with atopic dermatitis. My skin was already prone to dermatitis, and it seems to have manifested after using this product. So while I can't say for certain that this product is the cause, if you have sensitive skin and a compromised skin barrier, it's best to be cautious.

ConsThere wasn't really anything bad. When I received the product, I thought it might not fit in my pouch because it was longer and slimmer than I expected.

When applied, it may look slightly visible, but it's practically unnoticeable. It's a watery sunscreen, so it's not thick and greasy, and it spreads easily! The moisture level is better than other mineral sunscreens, so it's great to use in this kind of weather. The fragrance is fresh and not overpowering, which I liked. I often get skin troubles when wearing sunscreen, but since the ingredients are gentle, there was no irritation or breakouts:)
ConsIt's a bit drier than I expected! Since I have very dry skin, it started to feel tight over time 🥲 I wish it was a little more moisturizing...

The white cast is there a bit when applying, but it disappears quickly. Well, if you prefer a slight tone-up effect, you might be disappointed? There is a bit of the typical sunscreen greasiness, but since it's winter, the amount of oil on my skin looked nice and glowy. - Fragrance I generally prefer fragrance-free products, but this one is not overpowering. - Skin Concerns My skin is a bit sensitive, but I didn't experience any redness or breakouts during the week of using this.
ConsAside from the fragrance, there aren't any major downsides yet. If it continues to work well, I may consider purchasing a full-size.

It has more of a cream/lotion-like application than others of similar formulation. The reduced greasiness and stickiness is a plus. After fully applying, the finish becomes slightly powdery.
ConsWhile not a major issue for me, there is some white cast as mentioned in the product description. Since the formula contains zinc oxide, there is a slight tone-up effect. It's not extremely pale, but it's not a completely tinted cream either - there is some color adjustment. I'm leaving this feedback as the product description may be a bit misleading.
TipSince the finish is slightly powdery, this sunscreen seems to pair well with cushion foundations. For my combination skin, it wasn't overly drying, but you may need to properly prep the skin depending on your skin type to get the best foundation-sunscreen harmony. Being a mineral sunscreen, the application isn't as smooth as organic or hybrid sunscreens. But compared to something like the Dr.G sunscreen, the application is still quite good.

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.ProsIt's not as thick as expected, and not quite as moisturizing, but it applies well and absorbs nicely, so it's good to use even before makeup! There's hardly any white cast, and I don't like using oily sunscreens as they feel heavy, but this one has very little oil, so I'm quite satisfied with it. I think those who prioritize vegan products would really appreciate this as well~
ConsWhen I apply it on very dry skin, it might feel a bit tacky, but that's the case with any product on dry skin, so it's not a major concern for me. There's nothing I'm particularly unhappy about!

And the package is fresh and nice! There is no typical cosmetic scent, and it is almost fragrance-free, which I liked. The application is not too thick and was fine.
ConsAlthough it doesn't feel sticky after applying, it is not a very moisturizing type. Those with dry skin like me should apply a moisturizing base before using this product!
TipAt first, it may seem like there is some whitening, but if you pat it in well, it absorbs without any whitening. Applying it with a crumbled puff makes it easy and nice to absorb~~!

(It becomes slightly radiant when applied, but it disappears soon) There was no stickiness or greasiness when I applied the sunscreen. On my skin, it had a velvety-like finish. The application was also smooth and not too thick. Since it's an inorganic sunscreen, I don't think there will be any eye irritation. (I didn't experience any eye irritation even when using organic sunscreens) Looking at the ingredients, inorganic sunscreens are usually dominated by titanium dioxide or a combination of titanium and zinc, but this one is made of only zinc oxide. That's probably why there was less white cast. (They say zinc causes less white cast than titanium.) And since it's non-nano, I'm a bit more at ease.^,^~ Also, I'm someone who gets breakouts when my pores are clogged, so I'm careful about ingredients that can clog pores, but this product didn't have any of those. So I was satisfied. However, since it's an inorganic sunscreen, a double cleanse is needed to remove it thoroughly. The delivery was also neat and tidy. Applying this and then doing my base makeup, there was no pilling or flaking. It's a good example that broke my prejudice(?) about inorganic sunscreens. Also, since it's vegan, those who like vegan products will probably enjoy it.
ConsAfter applying this and using a cushion foundation, it got really messy and broke down throughout the day as I worked. It emphasized my pores, and it broke down in a way that left white, dotted residue in my pores. ^^...

Even though it's a mineral sunscreen, it doesn't feel thick and sticky like an organic sunscreen. It applies smoothly and leaves a slightly powdery finish, but not too much. ✅ Breakouts - No breakouts at all in the first week of use! ✅ Fragrance - It has a subtle lotus(?) scent. The scent is present when applying but doesn't linger for long, which I like (I'm usually sensitive to fragrances and prefer unscented products). ✅ White Cast - My skin is dry and sensitive, but this sunscreen doesn't make it feel overly dry or leave a noticeable white cast (no pilling or clogging of pores either). There is a slight white cast initially, but it blends in naturally very quickly. ✅ Eye Irritation - I didn't experience any eye irritation at all!
ConsSo far, there's nothing major that I'm unhappy with.~ I'll add any issues that come up later.
Tip** For those with dry skin, in the winter your skin may get even drier, so using a more hydrating base and applying the sunscreen on top may help with the spreadability. ** Since this is a mineral sunscreen, it's better to use a cleansing milk rather than a foaming cleanser for removal. You can just use the cleansing milk without double cleansing, as it will still remove the sunscreen effectively (double cleansing can be a bit drying).

I prefer organic sunscreens because of the smooth application. Mineral sunscreens tend to have a slightly thick and sticky feel, but this sunscreen doesn't have that. Although I felt it was a bit rich when first applied, it absorbs well and leaves a refreshing finish like other mineral sunscreens. ❤️The formula is just like a regular sunscreen - not too thin or too thick. ❤️There's only a slight white cast, not overly noticeable. It provides a natural-looking tone-up effect. ❤️There's hardly any eye irritation. As someone very sensitive to sunscreen eye irritation, I barely felt any with this one.
Cons💔The scent is a bit strong. Those who prefer unscented products may not like it. 💔For dry skin types, it may be too drying, especially in the winter.
TipDon't be stingy - apply generously all the way down to your neck!
