I was able to use it with confidence as it is non-irritating. Moisturizing: The moisturizing power is great, making it perfect for use in the winter. Even in dry weather, my skin remained moisturized. Glowing skin: When applied, it gives a natural glow to the skin, making it look healthy. It also works well as a makeup base.
ConsOiliness: There is a slight oiliness, which may be a burden for those with oily skin. Especially in the summer, it may be difficult to control sebum. Spreadability: When applied, there is a slightly heavy feeling, rather than a refreshing one. It's as if a thin film is formed on the skin. Low SPF: The SPF is a bit low, so it may not be sufficient to block strong UV rays in the summer. On days with a lot of outdoor activity, you may need to apply an additional sunscreen.
TipRecommended for winter use: It is recommended for use in the dry winter season as the moisturizing effect is excellent. Your skin will remain moisturized. Use as a makeup base: If you want a glowing skin expression, try using it as a base before makeup. It can create a natural and healthy skin appearance. Apply in small amounts multiple times: For those who find the oiliness burdensome, try applying it in small amounts multiple times. This way, you can use it in a lighter way. The Barone Ecto Essence Sunscreen has an oily and dense texture, so it may not be suitable for those with oily skin. However, in the winter, the moisturizing power is good, so it may be suitable for those with dry or combination skin. The slightly low SPF is a bit disappointing, but as it is a gentle product that gives a glow, it seems to work well for sensitive skin as well.

The size fits perfectly in my small hands. It's also a good size to carry when traveling. - No fragrance: This can be a pro or con, but I personally like it. - Surprisingly soft and smooth application - It felt heavy when I first applied it, but there's no heavy feeling after absorption. - No eye irritation as it's mineral-based. - No white cast despite being mineral-based. - Leaves a glossy finish: When I applied the Barone Ecto-in Essence Sunscreen and then a semi-matte foundation, it finished with the right amount of matte without feeling dry. I liked it even more when the oil came through over time (this may depend on skin type). - Gentle ingredients: Since it's said to be safe even for infants, I expected it to be gentle, and it indeed did not cause any breakouts. I usually use gentle sunscreens as my skin is prone to breakouts, and I didn't have any issues while using this one, so the ingredients seem to be good. Conclusion: Gentle ingredients and non-drying mineral sunscreen
Cons- The finish is not as fresh and clean as some other sunscreens, so it may be difficult to apply on the body. - It's not a lightweight formula, so it requires more time to properly absorb. If not, it may feel heavy. - The oiliness may make it unsuitable for oily or combination skin types, especially in the summer. It's a shame as the ingredients are good, but the formula seems to be dependent on skin type and season.
TipFor dry skin types, applying the Barone Ecto-in Essence Sunscreen before a semi-matte or matte foundation can help prevent dryness.

Cons💛 Downsides - Not a lightweight, refreshing sunscreen, so may not be suitable for oily skin types or men - For the same reason, not ideal for those who want to use the same sunscreen on the face and body - I received feedback that on the days I used this, my makeup seemed to lift a bit (😅)
TipThis seems better suited for the fall/winter season rather than summer

My skin type is combination. The product is amazing! It has sufficient moisture and oil, so it's not drying, and the ingredients are good, so there were no breakouts! With the right balance of moisture and oil, I think it will work really well for me in the winter!
ConsWhile the product is very moisturizing and nice, it may not be the most suitable for use in the summer. Although it's described as refreshing, the texture doesn't seem that refreshing.

It's not overly white-cast for a mineral sunscreen.
ConsIf the explanation was well-written, a user who wants such an effect would purchase and use the product well. However, the explanation is completely opposite to the product's characteristics, so a consumer who bought it just by reading the explanation would be like 'Hmm, it's not great?' I wonder who wrote this explanation... Explanation: Refreshing → Actual use: Closer to oiliness While everyone may feel differently, it's not refreshing. Even while applying, an oily feeling is noticeable, and after spreading it thinly on the face, an oily feeling is clearly present. That oiliness is not like the original sunscreen, where it leaves a slightly glossy and slightly oily base, but it ends with a sticky feeling.... Sunscreen is applied all over the face and must be applied, so users will likely have different desired textures, but I think the biggest downside is that the explanation is the opposite of that. If the explanation was properly done, a dry-skinned user could properly purchase and use this product... This may just be my misunderstanding, but the term 'essence' also feels a bit awkward. These days, when sunscreens have 'essence' in them, it's often an organic UV filter product, so I naturally thought it was an organic UV filter at first. After reading the explanation about the mineral UV filter, I finally realized that 'sunscreen essence' is expressing a thick, essence-like texture. From the perspective of a consumer who predicts the texture based on the product name first, this could cause some confusion. And combined with the completely opposite product characteristics written earlier, it seems like the product explanation was written by someone who doesn't know the product well.. Of course, if it's just me who's confused, it's not a problem, and I may just not know much about sunscreens.

It's heavier and oilier than a typical moisturizing formula. However, it spreads smoothly and evenly without much white cast, leaving a natural glow. Since my skin type is dry, I thought this product would be nicely moisturizing, but after a while, I felt some dryness, so it's better to pair it with a more hydrating skincare routine. 🧡Packaging The product is very compact and perfect for carrying around. The case is also cute.
ConsThe disappointing part was that even though it's described as 'moisturizing and refreshing', it's actually quite heavy and oily.
TipThe formula is heavy and oily, so it may cause breakouts for those with oily skin. It might be better to use this product in the fall or winter seasons.

It's gentle enough to be used on a baby's skin, so I applied it without worry. There was no stinging or irritation. ❤️ Fragrance-Free: It has a natural, herbal scent. It's not the most pleasant fragrance, but I'm glad it's free of synthetic fragrances!
Cons💙 Ingredients: They're a bit... concerning. There are 2 out of 20 caution ingredients. 💙 Spreadability: It's a bit thicker than expected. Normally, an essence-type sunscreen would spread on thinly and absorb quickly, but this one has a slightly oily and moisturizing feel. I prefer a more powdery, lightweight finish.
TipI think this sunscreen would be better suited for slightly cooler and drier weather, rather than the current humid and hot season. For those with dry skin, I'd recommend giving this a try!
