Oily

Not Moisturizing

Doesn't Give High Coverage

Not Easily Absorbed

Not Effective for Inner Dryness

Has a White Cast

Not Rich

Provides a Tone-Up Effect

Looks Natural

Hydrating

Doesn't Apply Smoothly

No Caking

Easy to Apply

Not Irritating

I feel that the facts I have don't match up and my persistence is lacking.

The product has a toning effect when used. It has a lot of moisture, so it applies smoothly without clumping, making it easy to use.

시카 그린 톤업 선크림 [SPF50+/PA++++]

There were hardly any downsides. There was no eye irritation, and it was easy to use as a non-greasy sunscreen. If I had to pick one downside, it would be that since it's in a tube, it sometimes squirts out suddenly or comes out all at once.

It has a dry texture. Lasts about a year. Since it's a mineral-based sunscreen, there's a slight white cast and it has decent spreadability, though not as smooth as an organic sunscreen (as expected). When applied, it may initially look a bit unnatural due to the white cast, but if spread well and given time, it provides a tone-up effect. However, it needs to be applied after the base makeup is well-absorbed, as applying it hastily before absorption can cause pilling. Overall, it seems decent.

Ah, the formula doesn't feel sticky at all, so it's great to apply it all the way up to the neck!!!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

The formulation is green, so I expected it to cover facial flushing, but it did not do so. ㅜㅜ

This is ambiguous, so I took away one star.
However, it's not bad.
It's gentle and I'm using it well, but
since the formula is green, I expected it to cover facial flushing, but it didn't, ㅜㅜ.
It's non-irritating and moisturizing, the formula is very good.
But I wouldn't give it a thumbs up either.
It's just ambiguous!

It's incredibly rich...😇 Photo verification is a must....
But it also has a lot of moisture, so it seems like it would be good for those with dry skin~
I use this on the U-zone and the Cosnorin tone-up sun cream on the T-zone!

This product is quite oily. When you see the oil paper, you can confirm that it is all soaked...😭 It needs powder treatment...haha
Compared to other sunscreens, it is quite oily...but it also contains a lot of moisture!

And in my opinion, the green color is minimal.
(Referring to the photo, the green color is definitely lighter compared to makeup bases) This means that this product absolutely does not cover redness, but rather, it should be approached with the idea that it gently blocks UV rays.

And... Mineral sunscreens usually contain two types of zinc + titanium, but this product only contains zinc, so I had a little doubt about its UV blocking ability. It's surprising that such a good application can be a mineral sunscreen...but since it's the Real Barrier line, I guess it can be trusted!

The product was a transparent one that you could immediately tell what it was just by applying it to your hand...haha
First, I have reddish skin, so I always apply a green-tinted sunscreen or makeup base before foundation to cover the redness, and then use a concealer on top...! Since the sunscreen is the first step in my skincare routine, the compatibility with the foundation is important, and I also wear it on days when I don't wear makeup, so it's important that it's not irritating and provides the right amount of tone-up. Everyone knows that sunscreen is a must 365 days a year, right?!
The tone-up effect is not as strong as you might think, and it fades away over time without any white cast.
Anyway, while searching for sunscreens, I came across a Realbarrier sunscreen that contains a green base, which I had used before when I had severe seborrheic dermatitis and saw great results, and I was able to purchase it at a low price on Bungaejangter.
When I used it...this product is really transparent...haha It's really, really transparent...haha The texture when I first applied it and the texture when it went on my skin were somewhat different, but this product is consistent...haha It's a product that contains both oil and moisture, and it goes on smoothly with a slightly oily but very moisturizing texture, so it doesn't dry out or get patchy, and it adheres well when I apply foundation on top...haha
It's a bit...very oily....😇

Especially when I have trouble, the sun cream with the Cica ingredient that covers the redness and suppresses the trouble is an essential item, so I use it all year round. Since it is a mineral sunscreen, it is important to have a good skincare routine, and using it is a great tip.

Some people find green sunscreens inconvenient due to the presence of white cast, but that is because they have applied an improper amount. Naturally, as a tone-up sunscreen, it brightens the skin, and if applied thinly, the tone-up effect will look natural when foundation is applied on top.

This is a green-toned sunscreen that I use because I have redness on my face. After the previous product I used from another company was discontinued, I looked for an alternative and chose this one as it is quite similar. Aside from the fact that this product has a slightly thicker cream formula, everything else is comparable, so I've stocked up on it and have been using it. 
Personally, I think I'll continue using this sunscreen as long as it doesn't get discontinued.

Mineral sunscreens tend to become drier over time, so you should make sure to apply a sufficient amount of moisturizer before using them.

None. Haha. Due to the nature of mineral sunscreens, they tend to clump up a bit when sweat is involved, but it's unavoidable.

I have a skin type that works well with zinc oxide but experiences breakouts when using titanium dioxide-based sunscreens. There are not many sunscreens on the market that only contain zinc oxide, so I have been using the Guddal sunscreen. However, I was dissatisfied with the tone-up function, so I purchased the Real Barrier sunscreen instead.
The green-based formula helps control redness and flushing, and the color gradually blends naturally with my skin tone, which I'm very satisfied with. The texture is also not as thick as typical mineral sunscreens and feels smooth. 
Since my skin is sensitive, I've been hesitant to use base makeup, but I think I'll stick with this sunscreen going forward.

It's not an absorbing cream that gets absorbed right away, so I have to pat it in a bit and it takes some time.
But I actually prefer this.

I feel like my skin tone is immediately brightened after applying it.
My skin feels moisturized.

Since I haven't used it for long, I'll use it more and post any shortcomings later.

I have sensitive skin and am prone to blemishes, so I was looking for something. Although I've only been using it for a few days, my initial impression is good. I'll use it more and leave a detailed review later.

For those with extremely dry skin, it may feel a bit drying when used.

I've been using it for about a month, and it naturally brightens my skin tone when applied.

There wasn't really anything disappointing about it.

When choosing sunscreen, I prefer mineral-based over chemical-based, so I was satisfied that this sunscreen is mineral-based. Mineral sunscreens tend to leave a white cast, which is why they are often used for color-correcting, and this sunscreen's green-tinted formula helped cover my redness, providing both tone-up and redness-covering benefits.
I like sunscreens that are creamy upon application but finish with a soft, powdery feel, and this sunscreen was just that. In the summer, applying sunscreen can feel sticky and uncomfortable, with hair getting stuck, but this sunscreen's soft finish is something I'm looking forward to this summer!

I would highly recommend this product to those with dry skin types as it seems to be wonderfully moisturizing!

However, the product description clearly stated that it has a non-sticky, non-greasy finish, but there is quite a bit of oil in it.
The product itself is not bad at all, but after applying, my face looked a bit shiny (?) which felt a bit burdensome for me as an oily-skinned person. It's not heavily thick and sticky, but I found myself reaching for blotting papers after use.
I imagine it would be even more challenging to use in the summer when oil and sweat levels skyrocket.

The RealBarrier cosmetics had a positive image as the ingredients were good and the reviews were great. I was lucky to be selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer and got to try the Cica Green Tone-Up Sunscreen.

The ingredients are, of course, excellent, and the usage experience is also satisfactory. It applies smoothly and feels moisturizing, which I really liked. With its PA++++ rating, it seems to provide great UV protection.

It also gives a natural tone-up effect. I'm glad it doesn't leave a whitish cast. I think it would give a flawless, glowing look on those with good skin.
