Even though whitening products can feel quite oily initially, they often leave the skin feeling dry later on... This product seems to work very well for dry skin types👍 🩷Smooth and non-sticky application 🩷Covers minor blemishes and evens out skin tone naturally 🩷Fragrance-free
ConsThe lasting power is around half a day, and over time the T-zone became quite oily and shiny. Blotting papers will likely be necessary. The price is a bit steep considering the amount of product, but it's worth watching for sales!
TipAs a whitening sunscreen, you may notice a slight white cast upon application. Using too much can be difficult to manage. I recommend applying a small amount and watching it absorb into the skin.

After using the product for about a week, the texture was quite matte and the fragrance was almost odorless. • It seems to finish off with a fluffy feeling. • Since I don't usually use foundation or cushion, I prefer tone-up sunscreens, so I think the tone-up feature was good for me. • As someone with a pretty prominent strawberry nose, the pores seem to be covered adequately! • The design is pretty, it looks like a watermelon or something, and it seems to have a certain charm to it.
Cons• It seemed like there was some peeling of dead skin cells. It seems like some exfoliation would be needed before using it. • The lasting power doesn't seem that great. • The case, or whatever you call it, is a bit sticky, so the sunscreen doesn't come out very well, and it seems like it would be a hassle to get the last of it out.

I personally really dislike sticky creams, so I always go for moisturizing products like lotions and creams. I was worried the texture would be sticky when I squeezed it out, but it wasn't sticky at all and not too matte either. It was still fluffy and my skin didn't get oily. The scent is similar to a typical sunscreen, but very faint...almost unscented? Since mineral sunscreens can be used even for sensitive skin, I think this would be a good option for those with sensitive skin. There was also a slight brightening effect, but it wasn't dramatic - just a natural-looking tone-up.
ConsThere were some issues with the packaging - it takes a bit of effort to squeeze it out, and sometimes too much comes out if you're not careful. The back of the package has an English notice about reapplying every 3 hours, but the lasting power is short, so it's inconvenient to keep reapplying on your face...And I'm not sure why they included that English notice on the package. When I used it on my face, it emphasized my wrinkles and pores, so it would be difficult for me to use it when going out with makeup. I think I'll just use it on my body or for quick errands.

Other mineral sunscreens often have a prominent white cast, making it difficult to apply enough, but this one has a slight white cast initially that quickly absorbs into the skin, leaving behind the natural skin tone. The fragrance is the typical scent found in common sunscreen products.
ConsWhile it doesn't feel sticky, it does have a slight shiny, oily appearance. When touched, it leaves a noticeable residue on the fingers. The application feels a bit thick at first, but becomes more hydrating and shiny after application. For oily skin types, this sunscreen may not provide enough long-lasting coverage for use with foundation or cushion products in the summer.

The product had an almost complete 'fragrance-free' scent, unlike the typical sunscreen smell. I absolutely love this. 2. At first, the texture seemed thick, but it applied very smoothly and softly. The more you apply, the better it performs. It's white in color but doesn't leave a chalky or unsightly white cast. It quickly evens out the skin tone and settles in a stable and fast manner. 3. The finish leaves the skin very smooth. It's not oily, nor is it overly moisturizing - it has a 'primer-like' smoothness (see photo*). It's not extremely drying like some sunscreens, and my skin felt very comfortable. 4. It also pairs well with cushion foundations. Especially during the humid rainy season lately, I've been using this sunscreen instead of my previous one.
Cons☝🏻The packaging is too rigid. I'm not sure if I'll be able to use it all up, as it's so hard that even when it's almost empty, it's still difficult to squeeze out. The thickness is such that I don't even dare try cutting it with a utility knife. If only the packaging was improved, I would happily repurchase this product, as it's so good otherwise. ☝🏻The tone-up effect gradually fades away. The tone-up function is only temporary. It doesn't last and eventually sinks into the skin tone. As someone who was looking for a lasting tone-up effect, this was a bit disappointing, but for those who prefer a more natural look, this could be a positive.
Tip(Body usage review) I applied it all over my legs, and it felt like they were coated. That's when I read the explanation that the particles physically bounce off UV rays. You need to scrub thoroughly when showering. I recommend using an oil cleanser☺️

Design - While it may not be directly related to the core function of sunscreen, the packaging is an attractive one that stimulates the desire to purchase! 2. Spreadability - As they claimed, it really does combine the best of both organic and inorganic sunscreens. The spreadability is not as silky-smooth as pure organic sunscreens, but it's not thick and sticky either - it applies evenly and smoothly without feeling heavy. 3. Most importantly, oil control - As soon as you apply it, it effectively controls the oiliness on your face, keeping it matte and fresh-looking for a long time. I think it would be great to use in the summer! If you have oily skin, I highly recommend this.
Cons1. Inconvenient to use - The plastic packaging makes it a bit tricky to squeeze out the product, especially towards the end. When there's a lot left, it's fine, but once it starts running low, you have to shake it around to get the remaining product out. A slightly softer container might work better. 2. Whitening effect - It doesn't have a severe whitening effect, but there is a natural brightening/tone-up effect. However, this effect doesn't seem to last very long, so it feels a bit ambiguous - I wish the tone-up benefit was more long-lasting, like a tinted sunscreen.
TipThe feeling of it adhering to the skin is really nice. Just be mindful when cleansing to ensure it's removed thoroughly.

As advertised, it is excellent at controlling sebum. The biggest reason I dislike applying sunscreen is the oily film it leaves on my face, but this product actually reduces sebum secretion even more than before application. Yet, my skin does not become dry, and instead feels moisturized. The semi-matte finish with a dewy glow is a hard-to-achieve skin state that lasts quite a long time. Additionally, since it is a mineral sunscreen, I can go out immediately without having to wait 30 minutes after application. While it is white and mineral-based, the slight white cast is not severe, and I can even claim it provides a tone-up effect. However, applying too much can intensify the white cast, so it's better to apply in two layers and let it absorb slowly. I also appreciate that it is fragrance-free. Other cosmetics provide enough scent, and having a sunscreen with an additional fragrance would be unpleasant as the scents would mix. This product maintains a clean, unscented profile. I did not experience any breakouts while using this product. The mineral sunscreen formula provides more reassurance regarding skin issues, and the 34 ingredients are relatively few, which I like, as more ingredients often mean a higher chance of skin troubles. I plan to continue using this product and have the intention to purchase it again in the future.
ConsWhile the instructions state to reapply every 3 hours, that is not very realistic. The longevity doesn't seem significantly different from other sunscreens, but the formula is not the easiest to reapply, making it difficult to adhere to that recommendation. Initially, it was fine, but towards the evening, I sometimes experience a slight stinging sensation around my eyes.
TipTo avoid the white cast, it is recommended to apply the product in two layers and let it absorb slowly.
