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.
ConsEverything else about the usage was satisfactory, but there were days when the fragrance was a bit strong and gave me a headache...
TipI 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.

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.
ConsOver 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.

It doesn't cause any eye irritation and has good spreadability. It applies lightly and doesn't feel heavy, so it seems like a good option for summer use. However, it's so lightweight (like applying a moisturizer) that I'm a bit doubtful about how well it protects against UV rays.ㅎㅎ Using it daily in the summer and topping up with a stick sunscreen after going out would probably be a good approach.
ConsI haven't found any disappointing aspects so far. The current trend in sun care products seems to be smaller sizes, so the only potential downside I can think of is the small volume. It would be great if a larger size version was available.
TipIt seems like a good option for those with dry skin, as it is very moisturizing.

The ingredients are good, and it seems like an all-around great product.
ConsThere's really nothing disappointing about it. If you're hoping for some tone correction, then that's not really there. But the moisturizing formula works well with mineral sunscreens or tone-correcting creams applied on top.

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.
ConsI don't have any. I'll repurchase it when I finish it~^^ It was really good for me
TipEven 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😆

Although it's a sunscreen, it applies lightly and smoothly without any stickiness or residue, just like a soothing serum! I think it's good for those who want to apply it lightly for daily use. It should suit those with just dry skin, not extremely dry skin.
ConsNot recommended for those who apply sunscreen and immediately put on makeup afterwards. It has a soothing gel-like feel, so it's difficult to apply other products directly on top of it.

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.
ConsThe 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!
TipI 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!

I really dislike the heavy, sticky feeling that is typical of sunscreens. This sunscreen doesn't have that, and just leaves a slightly oily feeling. And the absorption is incredibly fast! It's like it just whooshes in. There's also not much residue left behind. ✨️Skin Type I have dry skin, and aside from the shiny exterior, I felt a slight inner dryness! Even in the summer, I'm the type who doesn't use powder at all and barely sweats, so if you tend to get a bit oily, this sunscreen can help control that a bit. I felt it would be good for both dry and combination skin types. ✨️Fragrance Personally, I was very satisfied with it. It's like they've amplified the faint floral scent that comes from tissue paper. It's an inoffensive, neutral fragrance. Kind of a Tony Moly-ish scent? I dislike the stuffy scent typical of gentle sunscreens, so this fragrance really pleased me. ✨️Eye Irritation I'm not extremely sensitive to eye irritation, but in general gentle sunscreens don't cause me any issues. This one didn't irritate my eyes either! ✨️Breakouts I tend to get breakouts more on my arms and neck when applying sunscreen, but I didn't experience any breakouts with this one! The application is smooth, so I could quickly spread it over a large area. It also has minimal tinting, so I found it good to apply on my body without worrying about it. ✨️Makeup Compatibility Wearing this didn't make my makeup apply particularly well, but it didn't interfere with it either! Since it absorbs so well and doesn't cause any pilling, there's no need to worry about that. Personally, I got a similar feeling to the Laneige Sunscreen.
ConsI have dry skin so it was fine, but there's a bit of a shiny, oily look to it. As it's a sunscreen, some oiliness is unavoidable, but if you dislike the oily feel, this could be a downside. Compared to other sunscreens I use, the oiliness is about the same, so for dry skin types it might just be like 'Oh, it's glowy!'
TipIt's great for applying on the neck and arms! The minimal residue left behind also makes it good for reapplying throughout the day. It's a good lightweight option to apply before makeup as a sun protection base.

It seems suitable for those with sensitive skin, atopic dermatitis, or allergies. While it may feel a bit sticky and heavy when applying, it absorbs quickly and leaves a light, fluffy finish, making it great for reapplying. The best part was that it didn't sting or irritate the eyes.
ConsThe scent is a bit strong, so those sensitive to fragrances may have mixed feelings about it. The lightweight application is great, but it takes a little time to fully absorb into the skin, so it may feel a bit sticky before that happens, though it becomes lightweight once absorbed.
TipThe lightweight formula makes it great for reapplying sunscreen when the sun is strong, to protect the skin.
