Pros
The gel formula is lightweight and the fragrance is a bit strong. It's a formula that can be applied lightly without any white cast, so I used it as a pre-makeup product. Due to the physical sunscreen properties, there was a slight sheen, but it was fine to use on its own.
Cons
Everything else about the usage was satisfactory, but there were days when the fragrance was a bit strong and gave me a headache...
Tip
I would recommend this as a lightweight sun product to use. If you are sensitive to fragrances, please consider the fact that the fragrance is a bit strong.

Pros
The name itself suggests it's a soothing sunscreen, and it absorbs into the skin like an essence, without any oily residue! It contains blue agave, which is known as a 'moisture magnet', so it provides good hydration without any stickiness or heaviness. I'm glad there's no white cast or greasy feeling that's typical of sunscreens. The fragrance is quite mild. I personally don't mind it much, but if you're sensitive to scents, I'd recommend trying it out yourself. It's similar to a regular skin care product scent. My skin tends to get sensitive and easily irritated in the summer, but this sunscreen seems to be formulated with gentle, non-irritating ingredients. It apparently passed high-level skin irritation tests, and I actually felt a soothing effect when using it.
Cons
Over time, the oilier areas of my skin may show some shine, but that's unavoidable in the summer. I just carry some blotting papers to dab it away when needed.

Pros
The subtle fragrance was the first thing I liked, and it felt moisturizing rather than oily, which I enjoyed. The application was smooth, and there was no white cast, so I was able to use it comfortably. The slim tube format was very convenient to carry around and use.
Cons
I was expecting an aloe-based formula since it's a soothing sun gel, but that wasn't the case, which was disappointing.

Pros
(I have acne-prone, sensitive, and rosacea-prone skin.) Scent: The sunscreen has a refreshing floral scent. The fragrance is not too strong, so it's easy to use. Texture: The texture is like a moisturizing lotion. It's not at all sticky, and the formula spreads smoothly. Usage: This sunscreen has no oiliness but still feels moisturizing. It applies easily and absorbs quickly, which is great! The lightweight texture makes it easy to reapply over makeup. It's a non-whitening sunscreen.
Cons
The quick absorption means I tend to use it up faster, which could be considered a downside..

Pros
The fragrance is just like that of cosmetics. I didn't find it too bothersome, but it might have a bit of a love-hate vibe. The texture is more like a watery, moist ampoule-like lotion, rather than a gel. The usage experience was good. It felt cool and moisturizing when applied. The finish has a slightly radiant effect. At first, it may make your hair stick a bit, but it gets absorbed after a while. There were no whitening or tone-up effects. At first, the cool and moist feeling was nice, but for my combination-oily skin, the oil started coming back after about 2 hours. So I wouldn't recommend using it directly on the face for combination-oily skin types. A good option would be to use it before makeup and then apply a mattifying cushion or powder to control the oil. I'll try this method and update my review later. The product itself is decent, but the oiliness that came back was a bit disappointing for my skin type. However, it finishes nicely and refreshingly on the arms and legs, so it might be better to use it as a body product.
Cons
For me, who has combination skin, the sebum content rises quickly, which is a bit of a shame. Especially in the summer, the sebum content seems to rise very quickly. In the winter, it should be a bit less.
Tip
It would be better to apply it before makeup or use it as a body product rather than applying it alone.

Pros
✔️Fragrance It's not odorless!! There is a somewhat fragrant, sweet and refreshing scent~ I liked the fragrance. If you prefer unscented, this may not be for you. ✔️Texture It's a texture between a toner and a cream! It's a slightly watery cream texture. As you can see in the photo, it doesn't drip but it's not heavy and has a light texture. ✔️Usage It's like a sunscreen that you can apply lightly as a base. You can apply this sunscreen like washing your face, and it will still feel moisturizing and nice. It lives up to its name! The finish is refreshing, so I think it performs sun protection well. It's moisturizing enough. ✔️Sensitivity When I tried various mild sunscreams, my eyes would sting. But with this product, my eyes didn't sting at all!! No breakouts or irritation either. I think this product would be good even for those with sensitive skin.
Cons
I don't have any. I'll repurchase it when I finish it~^^ It was really good for me
Tip
Even if you just slap it on without proper skincare, it absorbs well and makes your makeup look great haha it's so moisturizing and nice😆

Pros
💧Tonymoly's Mild Blue Agave Soothing Sun Gel💧 I'm very sensitive to sunscreen scents, but this one has almost no sunscreen smell and is practically fragrance-free, which I really liked. I've been applying it consistently, and it spreads smoothly without any stickiness, and it's so gentle that it doesn't sting my eyes at all, so I could apply it worry-free! Moreover, I looked into it beforehand and found that the agave ingredients help soothe the skin and provide moisturizing benefits. That's probably why I haven't had any breakouts or white cast issues so far - I'm completely satisfied with it! ㅎㅎ
Cons
While I was satisfied with the ingredients and application, sunscreen is not just for the face, but needs to be applied to the arms, legs, and neck as well. The amount provided is too little to cover the whole body. If I were to apply it to my face daily, the bottle would only last about a month. ㅎㅎ I wish they had a larger size version!
Tip
The compact size is perfect for carrying around and reapplying on the go. I have combination skin that tends to get shiny in the summer, and the sunscreen helps my makeup stay in place without any patchiness. It's been a lifesaver!

Pros
It's really moisturizing and the makeup applies well when you apply it. I'm not sure exactly what the scent is, but it has a subtle fragrance that's nice. If you don't like fragranced products, you might not like it, but it's not overpowering, so most people probably won't strongly dislike it. I really don't like sunscreens that are chalky and a bit thick, but this one is very moisturizing and doesn't have any white cast, so it's great to apply generously in the summer and wear around. The fluid, moisturizing formula is easy to apply without feeling heavy or sticky.
Cons
It's moisturizing, but it leaves a slightly greasy feeling when you apply it. It doesn't seem to be an overly oily product, but there's a sense of being in between moisturized and shiny when you put it on. In the summer when I sweat a lot on my face, if I don't put powder on top, I can literally see my face melting in real-time.

Pros
Scent: When sniffed, it has a faint, slightly sour and fresh grassy aroma that lingers gently. Spreadability: It applies very smoothly and absorbs quickly! There's no white cast, and your skin tone looks slightly brighter after application. It actually applies and absorbs even more softly than a lotion, and it's barely noticeable, so I was skeptical about its sun protection, but it's better than not using anything. Most importantly, since it's a gel, my skin feels instantly hydrated and cooled upon application, and it definitely has a soothing effect on my sensitive skin!! I've only tried it on my arms since my skin is so delicate, but there was no stinging or other irritation, and no redness or blemishes appeared.
Cons
The volume seems a bit ambiguous to me...When I apply it to my face and arms, it feels like it'll run out quickly, so having 100ml or 150ml versions would be great. The price-to-volume ratio doesn't seem very cost-effective either.
Tip
Of course, it's best to store and use it in a cool, shaded place away from direct sunlight. It works well if you apply it right after toner, following cleansing. Since the volume is small and the price is on the higher side, it's a good idea to keep an eye out for sales and stock up when there are discounts!

Pros
Texture: It has a gentle, moisturizing cream-like texture. Fragrance: Personally, it reminds me of the scent of baby lotions! Since I wear makeup daily, I've been looking for a moisturizing sunscreen with a cream-like texture, and this product seems to be the perfect fit for me! The sunscreen is so moisturizing that even after just applying a toner and serum, my skin still feels as hydrated as when I use a cream. These days, when the weather is hot, heavy skincare can feel stuffy, but with this product, I can skip the moisturizer and my face feels much lighter! It doesn't leave a white cast and is so moisturizing that it's great to reapply during outdoor activities. It's rare to find a sunscreen that doesn't sting the eyes, but this one really doesn't irritate my eyes at all.
Cons
The fragrance that reminds me of baby lotion can be a bit nauseating if you keep smelling it. It's not recommended for those sensitive to fragrances!
Tip
I have a lot of freckles on my face, so I'm very careful when choosing sunscreen, and I always apply it in two layers because I'm sensitive to UV rays. So when I use this product and then apply a sunscreen stick on top, it provides perfect UV protection. The longevity also seems to be improved. During my recent vacation, I used this product along with the Round A Round sunscreen stick on my face, neck, arms, and legs, and I didn't experience any redness from sun exposure all day long! I highly recommend this product to those who want effective sun protection, soothing properties, and a lightweight feel on the skin!
