Sample I was worried that the product might not suit my skin, but I was glad that they sent me 3 sample sizes (enough for 2-3 applications on the face). It would be great to bring it along on trips! 2. Pore Care When I used the previous sunscreen with mineral filters, my pores would get clogged really badly in the afternoon. But with this one, there's no pore clogging, creasing, emphasizing of wrinkles, or tightness. (For reference, I used the Banila Co. cushion.) 3. Gentle Ingredients When I used the previous sunscreen, my skin completely flipped out after just one day due to the fragrance. But this one has no irritating ingredients at all, so my skin stayed healthy. And I didn't feel any stinging around the eyes. 4. Oil Content This seems like it would be great for dry skin types, but may have a bit too much oil for oily skin. However, the oil doesn't come up in a gross, greasy way, but more in a glowy manner. So I actually liked it. I think I can use this comfortably year-round, just avoiding it in the humid rainy season. 5. No White Cast I use a cushion foundation, so white cast from sunscreen is a big issue for me. But this one doesn't leave any white cast, so I'm really happy about that. No more tinted zombie look... I feel like I've finally found the sunscreen to settle down with after being a sunscreen nomad since my previous favorite got discontinued. Please don't discontinue this one, I beg you!
Cons1. Brand Name The brand name might be the biggest entry barrier. It's probably because the meaning 'Beautiful Korean Woman' is not well known overseas. But does the brand name really matter when you're just using the sunscreen? Not at all. 2. Oil Content Those who want a completely matte skin finish might not prefer this, as it has a noticeable oil content.
TipYou can just slap it on with your hands and it blends in well!

My skin is sensitive, so I've been using mineral sunscreens often. But I've felt that the mineral sunscreens have been getting a bit thick for me lately. I wanted to change my sunscreen, but I was worried about organic sunscreens being absorbed into my skin. Then, I was selected to try the famous Korean Beauty Sunscreen, and I was able to satisfy my curiosity about why it's so popular. 🌟 Texture It has a lotion-like feel. It's firm enough that it doesn't run when I put it on the back of my hand, but it applies smoothly like a lotion. 🌟 Usage As I mentioned, it applies very smoothly, like a lotion. And when I apply it, I can feel the moisture in the sunscreen, so it feels like I'm applying an extra layer of lotion, not just sunscreen. There's no white cast. When I first apply it, the sunscreen itself looks white, but as I spread it out and it absorbs, it blends into my skin without leaving any visible trace of the sunscreen. I applied it at 10 AM and removed it at 10 PM. When I only wore the sunscreen, I didn't feel my skin drying out, as you'd expect. And when I combined the sunscreen with a cushion foundation (fwe*), the makeup looked nicer than when I just wore the cushion alone, and there was no faster breakdown or caking of the makeup. 🌟 Fragrance It's fragrance-free. Even as someone with rhinitis, I couldn't detect any scent no matter how hard I tried to smell it, either when applying it or on my face.
ConsI don't have any particular dislikes. I can't think of anything. Now that it's summer, it's time to switch to a matte cushion foundation, and I think wearing this moisturizing sunscreen and then a matte cushion will prevent my eye area and other parts from looking dry even after some time has passed.
TipSince the sunscreen is so moisturizing, I think wearing this sunscreen and then a dewy cushion foundation will make my skin look really nice and glowy. I checked the mirror a few hours after doing my makeup, and I was really satisfied with how it looked.

First, I have sensitive skin, so no matter what sunscreen I use, my skin gets irritated. Mineral sunscreens cause milia and acne, and organic sunscreens tend to cause a burning sensation and skin itchiness. However, this product was great as I didn't experience those issues much after using it. It's a lifesaver for those who can't use sunscreen... To explain in more detail, 1. It has good spreadability. It has the good spreadability that is the advantage of organic sunscreens. In fact, I didn't have high expectations for the texture, but it has a cream-like spreadability and feel. Unlike other products, there's no sticky residue left, which I really liked. It gets absorbed completely, so it's great to apply on the neck as well. 2. (For an organic sunscreen) It causes less eye irritation. Of course, it's not as minimal as mineral sunscreens that really don't cause eye irritation, but the eye irritation was quite minimal. As long as you don't sweat profusely before it's fully absorbed, or apply a thick layer around the eyes, it's not uncomfortable to use! 3. !This is the most important! The typical burning sensation/itchiness of organic sunscreens was significantly less. Since I'm very sensitive, I do feel some warmth on my face when using it. (Organic sunscreens convert light into heat.) But compared to other products, it was minimal. As someone who didn't even dare to try organic sunscreens before, this level of sensation is truly satisfactory. 4. !This is also important! No breakouts. Honestly, I was almost giving up on sunscreens as my skin reacts badly to anything I try, but after using this product, I think I can even use gentle organic sunscreens. There really hasn't been a product this good. Unless there are major changes, this will likely become my go-to sunscreen.
ConsHere are some things I noticed that could be improved: 1. It can sometimes feel a bit cakey when applied before makeup. This varies by makeup product, but with some matte cushions, it felt a bit like dust or powder when applied directly. It worked better when patted on gently rather than rubbed. Dewy cushions or foundations seemed to work a bit better. Conclusion: The compatibility with makeup isn't terrible, but there is some cakiness. 2. The packaging opening is a bit odd. The hole is small and centered, so it can be a bit messy to dispense the product, with some getting on the sides. I think it would be better if the opening was thinner or the hole was a bit larger. 3. It does contain physical sunscreen, so there is a slight warming sensation and eye irritation. As a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, I could tolerate this, but more sensitive users may prefer a chemical-only sunscreen. (I personally can't use most sunscreens, so this is the best option for me currently.) Having to reapply every 30 minutes when going out is also a downside.
