It applies just like a moisturizer. There's hardly any stinging around the eyes, and it doesn't leave a white cast - it really feels like a regular moisturizer. When I use it before makeup, my foundation goes on smoothly.
ConsIf I had to nitpick, I wish it was a bit more affordable. But honestly, there's nothing I'm really disappointed about..

It absorbs well with just the right amount of richness and glow, making it perfect for use before makeup as it helps foundation adhere seamlessly to the skin. * Thanks to its cica ingredients, it's not irritating at all. I didn't experience any eye stinging or blemishes, at least by my standards. * As it's an organic sunscreen, it doesn't have a brightening effect. * It's a washable formula, and I was skeptical about claims that it could be removed with just foam cleansing. But on days when I only wore this sunscreen without makeup, I skipped double cleansing and still had no skin issues!
ConsPersonally, I love this product so much that I don't have any complaints about its performance or potential for causing blemishes. However, I wish it came in a larger size! As it's a sunscreen I use daily, it gets used up quickly. The current volume feels too small, and I find myself running out too fast, which is a bit disappointing.
TipIn my opinion, sunscreens can be divided into two categories: those suitable for use under makeup (which might be too glowy or rich to wear alone) and those for days without makeup (which should have just enough richness to prevent dryness, but not be too matte and cause skin tightness; a brightening effect is nice but not necessary). The Damtone Cica Sunscreen seems to work well in both scenarios. Personally, I used to think the best sunscreen was a similarly packaged product currently on 1+1 sale at Olive Young, but I find the Damtone product to be less drying and not excessively rich, which makes it even better in my opinion.

It's completely non-irritating to the skin, and there's no stinging sensation around the eyes! As it's a Hwahae-approved formula, the moment you apply it, your face is blessed with a subtle glow and hydration! I think the price is reasonable too. I usually get blemishes when I use sunscreen, but I haven't had a single breakout with this one. It adds a slight, not-over-the-top brightness, so you don't need to use a separate brightening moisturizer - which is fantastic! It's a sunscreen I've purchased with my own money and would love to gift to friends and family! Highly recommended!!
ConsThere are no downsides!!!! This is the first product I've encountered with absolutely no negatives... You can trust it and make your purchase without hesitation.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst off, I prefer sunscreens with a light, emulsion-like feel that don't leave a white cast even when applied generously, and adhere to the skin like a base. This sunscreen ticked all those boxes for me. Firstly, there was no eye irritation. While it's said that no sunscreen can be 100% gentle, this one didn't sting even when I applied it around my eyes - a first among the sunscreens I've tried. Secondly, it's free from any overwhelming cosmetic or other scents. It's almost fragrance-free, making it suitable for those with sensitivities to fragrances. Thirdly, it's a true emulsion! It has the perfect balance of hydration, richness, and absorbs well. Without overthinking it, the texture is like a nicely hydrating emulsion, making it easy to apply without feeling heavy or burdensome. It'll be perfect for light use in the upcoming summer. I've had experiences where sunscreens were too oily for me, but this product has just the right amount of richness, which I found satisfying. Fourthly, it doesn't significantly affect makeup applied over it. Thanks to its light, skin-adhering emulsion-like texture, there wasn't much pilling or clumping when I applied makeup after letting it absorb sufficiently. I usually apply sunscreen generously, and while there was some slight pilling as expected, it was less noticeable when I allowed ample absorption time. This may vary depending on individual skin absorption rates. While my skin isn't extremely sensitive, I've occasionally experienced blemishes with certain products. However, I had absolutely no issues or irritation after using this product, which was fantastic.
ConsThere weren't any particular downsides, and honestly, I'm so satisfied that I'll likely repurchase once I finish my current one. However, it is a bit on the pricier side.
TipI apply a generous amount of sunscreen, usually in two thin layers. I allow about 5-10 minutes for absorption before applying makeup. This method ensures that my makeup goes on smoothly.

Comparing it to Goodal, I found this one to be a bit heavier and more substantial in texture. As a result, it seems to keep my skin hydrated for longer. I apply sunscreen very generously, and like Goodal, this one absorbs quickly which I love. I didn't experience any eye irritation or noticeable scent with this product.
ConsI typically squeeze out product for each area - cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin separately. With this product, it tends to come out a bit more forcefully than expected. It was slightly inconvenient at first, but I've gotten used to it now and use it well. If the price is more reasonable than Goodal, I might consider switching.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsWhen it comes to sunscreens, I prioritize factors like white cast, eye irritation, blemishes, and heaviness on the skin. I love that there's absolutely no white cast, so I can apply generously! It didn't cause any eye irritation either. Perhaps due to its soothing effect, it didn't trigger any blemishes. Compared to other sunscreens, it feels relatively lightweight, so there's less of that suffocating, coated feeling, and it's quite refreshing. I'd recommend this for super sensitive skin. Overall, I'm satisfied with it!
ConsIt has that distinctive sunscreen scent. While it feels fresh at first, it becomes a bit rich over time. I wouldn't recommend this for those with oily skin!
TipWhen my skin is prone to blemishes, it's great to just apply this sunscreen lightly before going out. It's not burdensome at all!

This product fits the bill perfectly. My eyes are sensitive, but this doesn't irritate them at all (I apply it all over my face, including eyelids, like I'm washing). Cleansing is easy too - it washes off without any oily residue or matte feeling. As someone with sensitive, blemish-prone skin, I didn't experience any breakouts or irritation. I don't usually wear makeup, so I reapply sunscreen often (3-5 times daily). It layers well with all my skincare products without pilling. The texture isn't too sticky, and there's barely any scent, so it's very comfortable to use. On April 21st, I spotted this famous product at Olive Young with a 1+1 deal and grabbed it right away. Definitely test it out at Olive Young! I've used similar sunscreens before, but they often left my skin feeling dry after a while. This one doesn't cause any deep dryness at all - I've found my holy grail product. *My husband, who usually ignores my nagging to wear sunscreen, actually uses this because it feels like a regular moisturizer. We've already finished one bottle thanks to that. Oh, and it doesn't clump on eyebrows either! (I'm the type to apply it there too)
ConsI've almost finished a whole bottle and haven't found any downsides. I'll update if I notice anything after continued use.
TipDon't just apply sunscreen to your face - remember your ears and neck too. If you find it uncomfortable to apply sunscreen to those areas, definitely try a mineral sunscreen like this one. It feels just like a regular cream and cleanses off easily.

First off, the Damton Hydrating Soothing Cica Sunscreen is a chemical sunscreen that applies smoothly without any white cast or stiff feeling, which I really appreciated. I usually opt for mineral sunscreens due to their lower skin irritation, but they often leave a white cast and can stain clothes. This product, despite being a chemical sunscreen with high UV protection, didn't cause any skin irritation or eye stinging, making it comfortable to use. Another plus is that this Damton sunscreen has almost no scent, which I prefer as I'm not a fan of strongly fragranced sunscreens. Looking at the ingredients list, I was pleased to see it's fragrance-free. With SPF 50+ and PA++++ protection, it's perfect for the increasing UV intensity these days. While high-protection chemical sunscreens can sometimes be harsh on the skin or cause eye irritation due to their chemical components, I experienced none of that with this product. Being a chemical sunscreen, it's easier to reapply and cleanse compared to mineral sunscreens, making it ideal for daily use. I've been using it for about a week now, and haven't experienced any blemishes after application. The chemical sunscreen formula also makes it great for layering and easier to remove, which is perfect for daily use. I've been using this product for about a week now, and I'm happy to report that I haven't experienced any blemishes after application.
ConsIt's a bit misleading to use 'Cica' in the name when the product only contains 100ppm (0.01%) of Centella Asiatica extract.

It's lightweight without being sticky, and gentle on the skin. As someone who typically prefers inorganic sunscreens (they don't sting my eyes and give a subtle brightening effect), I was thrilled with this one. It doesn't leave a noticeable white cast, but instead gives a natural, beautiful brightening effect that evens skin tone. The fragrance is minimal, so you can apply it generously without getting a headache. It's especially nice on the neck, where it absorbs well and provides a slight brightening effect.
ConsThere wasn't really anything I disliked... If I had to pick something, I'd say that those with very oily skin might need to follow up with powder.

Let me share my experiences after using this product for a while: 1. It's much less rich compared to other sunscreens 2. It has a light, moisturizer-like texture that doesn't burden the skin 3. It's almost fragrance-free 4. No stinging around the eyes 5. Barely any white cast So even when I applied multiple layers, it just felt like I was adding more moisturizer! I really appreciated the lightweight texture and the lack of white cast.
ConsSurprisingly, I haven't found any downsides yet! (I even recommended it to a friend who absolutely hates sunscreen.) However, keep in mind that everyone's skin reacts differently!
