This one is affordable for its size and great for seasonal use. There's no white cast, and it doesn't irritate my eyes.
ConsThe downside is that it seems to cause deep dryness, making my skin feel tight by afternoon. Even my son in his 20s with healthy skin said it felt tight after one application. While physical protection is the advantage of mineral sunscreens, dryness seems to be the trade-off.
TipI've found that mixing mineral and chemical sunscreens helps reduce the tightness. I apply the mineral one first, then layer the chemical one on top. For better sun protection, try reapplying after a short interval.

I was looking for an easy-wash product, and this one rinses off quite well. As someone with sensitive skin, I needed a mineral sunscreen that could be removed with just cleansing foam, and I think I've found my holy grail. On my skin tone, there's hardly any white cast, and it actually makes my complexion look clearer, which I really love.
ConsDue to its high moisture content, it can make the skin look a bit shiny. Also, it doesn't have any brightening effects. That's why I apply the same company's Niacinamide+Calamine brightening moisturizer before this sunscreen. (Additional cons after using up a 30ml tube) Because it's water-soluble, if applied around the eyes, by evening the sunscreen can dissolve in tears and enter the eyes, blurring vision. I've often found white residue dissolved at the outer corner of my eye membrane. It doesn't cause pain, though. So now I avoid applying sunscreen where my eyelashes touch. I was wondering why my vision would get hazy in the evenings, and it turned out to be the sunscreen. Still, I'm very satisfied with this sunscreen as long as I avoid the eye area.
Tip1. The formula is quite thin, so you may need to reapply frequently for sufficient protection. In summer, I apply it three times a day. However, it doesn't leave a noticeable white cast even with multiple applications. 2. Although it's marketed as easy-wash and the official website promotes it as such, being a mineral sunscreen, it still requires a cleanser with strong cleansing effectiveness to remove completely. If you use a mild cleanser or don't cleanse thoroughly, some white residue may remain. Still, it's relatively easy to remove compared to other mineral sunscreens. 3. The easy-wash feature means it's also vulnerable to tears and sweat. Especially if applied around the eyes, it can dissolve in tears, pool in the eyes, and blur vision. If this concerns you, avoid applying it around the eye area.

When you buy it on sale, it's such a great deal... I wonder if this brand even wants to make money! There's minimal white cast too. I've wholeheartedly recommended it to those with super sensitive skin, and they're all using it with satisfaction.
ConsAt first, it feels hydrating, but as time passes, perhaps due to the limitations of mineral sunscreens, it definitely becomes tight and dry on the skin. It might be more noticeable for me because I apply Stivaa as well.
