It feels refreshingly light on the skin. The price is reasonable too.
ConsThere's a slight white cast. It would be great if they could reformulate it as an essence.

It's a good choice for those wanting a noticeable improvement in skin tone. • Despite providing a glowy finish, I didn't experience any darkening on my face. • It leaves a moisturized finish, which might feel a bit rich. For better skin appearance, using a puff or sponge works better than fingers.
ConsIf you're looking to use this as a foundation replacement, you might be disappointed as it lacks coverage. The brightening effect is quite noticeable, creating a visible line between the face and neck. However, applying it down to the neck isn't ideal as it transfers easily onto clothes, leaving white marks. I had to apply a separate sunscreen with a white cast on my neck for a seamless look.
TipUsing a puff or sponge instead of your hands results in a semi-matte finish.

Similar to Es*** pink sunblock. No dryness when just applying cream and sunblock, but concealer makes those areas dry. Pairs well with Es*** BB Velvet Cushion. Brightening the complexion with this sunscreen and then patting on a 23 shade cushion creates a natural, radiant look with a nice glow. I wear contacts and experienced no eye irritation. The narrow opening keeps it clean, and it's easy to control the amount when applying in two layers.
ConsThe product is beige, but the white cast looks a bit off before absorption. Unavoidable with mineral sunscreens, but... Can anyone tell me if this is easy to wash off?

For those who find makeup a hassle, have dull skin + large pores, and struggle with white cast, pilling, or excessive oiliness when using just sunscreen - this product addresses all these concerns effectively. While it's not perfect, I highly recommend it if you've been on a sunscreen odyssey due to these issues.
ConsThere's some pilling in areas where it's applied thickly, like a no-sebum primer, and under glasses where they rest on the nose. Also, it's not the typical sunscreen white cast, but more like Innisfree's cherry blossom brightening moisturizer effect. If you dislike this type of formula, I wouldn't recommend it.
TipIt's a great all-in-one product for summer, perfect for applying thinly. However, due to some pilling, I find myself reapplying every 3-4 hours.

It reminded me of when I first tried CC creams with their adhering texture and dewy finish, a stark contrast to the ink-like BB creams from a decade ago. Despite its critical flaw (which I'll mention later), the glow is too good to give up on
Cons- Absorption isn't great, so you need to be careful with the amount to avoid greasiness and white cast - Severe pore-clogging and emphasizes dead skin cells Even without crater-like pores, it still clogs them badly. This flaw is so critical that it's hard to recommend. A primer is a must, and you'll need to check your pores frequently. - Slight eye irritation As I'm sensitive to eye irritation, those less sensitive might not notice it. Contact lens wearers might not feel it either.
TipSummary and comparison with previously used products Innisfree Vitamin C Tone-Up Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++ - Medium richness / Slight eye irritation - Subtle and natural tone-up with a luxurious glow - Firm texture but can look greasy if too much is applied, so amount control is necessary - Tends to clog pores and emphasize dead skin cells - Requires double cleansing Atté Vegan Relief Sun Essence SPF50+ PA++++ - Medium-high richness / Slight eye irritation / Mild skin irritation when skin is sensitive - No tone-up effect - Greasy texture, requires amount control - Due to greasiness, mix with foundation or Dr.G Sun+ product, or use finishing powder - Single cleanse is sufficient Dr.G Brightening Up Sun Plus SPF50+ PA+++ - Low richness / No eye irritation / Can feel dry and tight after a while - Brightening tone-up with a matte finish - Absorbs well, can layer for more coverage, especially on dark circles - Doesn't emphasize pores, dead skin cells, or wrinkles - Requires double cleansing

My skin tends to be quite yellow, and I've been noticing more dark spots lately, but when I apply this, it gives a whitening effect as if there's a slight white cast. Since it's a hybrid formula, there seems to be a bit of a white cast. The dark spot coverage is just okay. I think this would work well for people with fair or slightly reddish skin tones. I'd recommend this for normal skin types. I have sensitive, dry skin, and after about 4 hours, I felt some tightness around my nose and smile lines. After reapplying and as time passed, by late afternoon, there was some pilling and patchiness on the lower part of my face. I was really pleased that there was no eye irritation.
ConsFor my extremely dry and sensitive skin, it felt a bit drying (though not tight in the T-zone, but not oily either), which was disappointing. On my yellowish skin tone, rather than brightening, it looked more like it left a white cast, so I think the effect might vary depending on individual skin color.
TipAs someone always on the hunt for the perfect sunscreen, I've realized that what works well for others and gets rave reviews might not necessarily be the best fit for me.
