Provides a subtle brightening effect, which is great. The lightweight formula makes it comfortable to wear on its own without feeling suffocating. No white cast (which can be seen as either a pro or a con, depending on preference).
ConsThe price point doesn't offer the best value for money. While it might be suitable for summer use, it could potentially feel a bit drying during winter months.
TipIf you experience some deep dryness, it's best to apply a generous layer of moisturizer before using this product.

The texture is moisturizing and lightweight, which I found very satisfying. It's convenient to apply right after finishing skincare. A major advantage of this sunscreen is how smoothly it glides on without the typical chalkiness of mineral sunscreens. My skin tolerates it well without causing blemishes or a burning sensation, so I think I'll continue using this sunscreen in the future. Packaging: The container allows for direct application to the face without needing to dispense it onto your hand first, which I found surprisingly convenient! As a student, I make sure to apply sunscreen before going to school. For those with oily skin, this moisturizing sunscreen might require following up with powder.
ConsThe thin opening and small base make the bottle prone to tipping over on my vanity. While not a major flaw, it was a bit annoying during use. This might not be an issue for those who store it lying down or securely in a pouch. I usually wear sunscreen under makeup, but this one didn't pair well with my cushion foundation. When applying the cushion over this sunscreen, it felt like it was pilling slightly, and as it wore off throughout the day, it broke down in a patchy way. My usual sunscreen doesn't do this, so the incompatibility with makeup was disappointing.
TipRemember to double cleanse when using mineral sunscreens.

It's a white cream with a hybrid sunscreen feel. I generally like both the powdery finish of mineral sunscreens and the moisturizing effect of chemical ones, so I don't have a strong preference for formulation. Lately, though, all my sunscreens have been hybrid types. The texture is truly emulsion-like - so smooth and silky! It glides on effortlessly without feeling dry or difficult to spread. After some time, when my natural oils came through, I looked in the mirror and was amazed at how flawless my skin appeared. Even though I've been dealing with some acne issues lately, this made my skin texture look great! The packaging is probably what I want to rave about the most. When I received it, I was genuinely surprised by how luxurious it looked. It made me feel like a real influencer, which was a nice confidence boost! I didn't experience any blemishes, and it worked well overall. But as we all know, simple is best - being reliable means it doesn't have any drawbacks!
ConsWell... it feels more like a mineral sunscreen than a hybrid, so if you're not a fan of that mineral sunscreen feel, I'd recommend trying a different one. I'm currently using Rom&nd Zero Sun Clean #1, which I'd suggest as an alternative.

Brightening effect: As someone who prefers a minimal makeup routine of just sunscreen and concealer for blemishes, I appreciate that this product offers a nice brightening effect that evens out my complexion. Easy to control dispensing: The long, narrow opening makes it super easy to control how much product you're using! Matte finish: This might be a matter of personal preference, but I love the matte finish. I have combination dehydrated skin and usually prefer a matte look, so I typically set my whole face with powder. When I first tested this product, I only powdered my nose and forehead, and my skin stayed matte all day! If you have very dry skin, you might want to layer on extra hydration underneath. Scent: I'm not a fan of strong fragrances in sunscreens, so I was pleased that this one is practically unscented. There's a very faint smell of the ingredients if you really put your nose to it, but it's unnoticeable when applied to the face.
ConsFinish: Being a mineral sunscreen, there is a slight gritty feeling upon application. It didn't bother me much, but it might not be to everyone's liking. Price: After winning this product, I checked the official website and was surprised by the price. It seems a bit steep for the amount you get.

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.ProsAs someone with sensitive skin that breaks out with tiny pimples and blemishes after just one use of an incompatible sunscreen, I'm pleased that this product, which has passed non-comedogenic tests, didn't cause any skin issues. While mineral sunscreens can be inevitably thick, this one spread well without discomfort, probably due to its high moisture content. I loved that it didn't feel tight even hours after application, thanks to its hydrating properties. As I have very oily skin, it's crucial that my pores don't get clogged, and this sunscreen claims to have a patented ingredient that prevents pore blockage. Personally, I'm not particularly sensitive to fragrances, so I didn't find anything bothersome about the scent.
ConsThe product description mentions an ingredient that gives a blue tint, and compared to other sunscreens, you can indeed see a slight blue hue. While it's fine after it's absorbed, there's definitely a white cast immediately after application. As a man with darker skin, I find this effect a bit more noticeable.
TipThe left side of my hand shows the Benton product I usually use, while the right side shows the Hevblue Clear Zulen product. There's some white cast right after application, but it fades over time. This sunscreen might be ideal for those with sensitive, oily skin who don't have a very dark complexion.

This sunscreen is my first Hepblue product, and I'm writing this review as a winner of The Hwahae Testers program. > Skin Type My skin type is combination dehydrated, and I have sensitive skin due to past dermatitis! > Application Unlike some other mineral sunscreens that can feel thick, this one applies smoothly considering it's a mineral sunscreen. It glides on effortlessly! > White Cast As a mineral sunscreen, it does have a white cast, but due to the guaiazulene ingredient, there's a very slight blue tint! It's not noticeable enough to be bothersome, and those with naturally fair skin might not even notice the white cast. For my neutral tone 21 skin, it felt like a slight brightening effect. > Product Design The thin, elongated design makes it easy to carry, and the narrow opening of the tube allows you to squeeze out just the right amount, which I really appreciate! > Blemishes Despite my sensitive skin, I didn't experience any blemishes while using this! > Scent It feels almost unscented, so there's no discomfort when using it. > Texture The texture is neither too thick nor too runny - it's just right with a creamy feel that applies evenly and smoothly. > Pore-clogging It doesn't clog pores at all!
Cons> Deep Dryness Maybe it's because I have combination dehydrated skin with some deep dryness on my cheeks, but while it felt moisturizing and smooth at first, I noticed some deep dryness as time passed. > Price While I was fortunate to receive this for free as a Hwahae Tester, considering that sunscreen is used daily, the price might be a bit burdensome for regular purchases.
TipRegarding the deep dryness I mentioned, I think if you layer your skincare properly before applying the sunscreen, it should be sufficient to cover that issue. Also, I believe the rich feel of sunscreen is unavoidable. If you apply your skincare thoroughly and finish with powder, you should be able to use this product more effectively.

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.ProsMy skin type is prone to atopic dermatitis flare-ups during seasonal changes, which I manage with steroid ointments. I have sensitive, thin skin, so I usually avoid makeup and only apply sunscreen. I prefer moisturizing mineral sunscreens as chemical ones tend to irritate my skin. Here's my take: - Ingredients: When I use products that don't suit my skin, I get blemishes within 2-3 hours. This one seems gentle based on how my skin reacts. - Texture: It's smooth and hydrating, not thick or sticky, and absorbs well. - White cast: Being a mineral sunscreen, there is a slight white cast, but it's not excessive. It provides a nice brightening effect, which I appreciate. However, this might be a matter of personal preference. - Hydration: It feels moisturizing upon application, with a very slight matte finish.
ConsDue to the white cast, it takes a bit more time and effort to blend in for a natural look. This might make it less convenient when I'm in a hurry.

However, this sunscreen, possibly due to its gentle ingredients or mineral-based formula, didn't cause any blemishes on my skin! Application: Being a mineral sunscreen, I was worried it might be thick or pill, but the application was surprisingly smooth and pleasant!
ConsBlue-tinted White Cast: I was specifically looking for a sunscreen with a white cast, which is good. However, it had a slightly blue-tinted white cast! So it didn't give that natural brightening effect I was hoping for. Dryness: While it felt very hydrating upon initial application, it became somewhat drying as time passed. If you have naturally dry skin like me, this is something to keep in mind.
TipThis would be great for applying on areas like the neck or arms during summer! Alternatively, applying a small amount on your face before makeup could help you achieve a more radiant look.

Usually, mineral sunscreens are thick and can clump when applied by hand, but this one spreads smoothly even with fingers! It's described as giving a slight brightening effect, which I found pleasantly subtle and not overwhelming. The long, round nozzle makes it easy to apply directly to the face. While it may feel dry underneath, it gives a clean finish to the skin without looking cakey on the surface.
ConsIt feels moisturizing when applying, but the finish is matte and a bit drying. Even with a solid skincare routine, I could feel some deep dryness. It's marketed as suitable for use under makeup, but perhaps due to the dryness, my makeup didn't sit well on top of it. For pre-makeup application, I'd prefer a more hydrating sunscreen.
TipI compared it to the Espoir tone-up sunscreen I've been using: Hydration: Espoir > Hav Blue Brightening effect: Espoir > Hav Blue (Espoir gives a more noticeable brightening) Absorbs well: Espoir < Hav Blue Skin finish: Espoir < Hav Blue (Espoir tends to apply patchily) Pre-makeup use: Neither Espoir nor Hav Blue recommended (Personally, I've never had success with white-cast sunscreens under makeup, so I don't recommend it)

The formula has just the right amount of hydration, so it spreads nicely without drying out my skin. ♥ Subtle brightening effect I usually apply sunscreen before makeup, so I don't like formulas that leave a white cast. This product gives a natural brightening effect, which I really appreciate! ♥ No pilling with makeup Some sunscreens can cause foundation to cake up or pill, making them inconvenient to use. This product, however, has just the right amount of moisture, so my foundation applies beautifully over it! That's what I love most about it. ♥ Easy-to-control dispenser The narrow, elongated opening makes it easy to control the amount and keeps the nozzle clean during use.
Cons✗ I honestly can't think of any real drawbacks, but if I absolutely had to mention something... maybe the small amount? And a slight deep dryness after some time. Other than that, I really loved this sunscreen!
TipIf you let it absorb well before applying makeup, your foundation will go on smoothly! Highly recommended for those looking for a sunscreen that doesn't pill under makeup!
