I was looking for a moisturizing sunscreen for my increasingly dry skin, and I'm glad I got the chance to try this one. It has a great texture for applying before makeup, with absolutely no white cast, making it an excellent base replacement! You can see from the photo on my hand how incredibly hydrating it is and how quickly it absorbs!! I've tried various sunscreens, but this pump-type packaging allows for more hygienic use. The formula doesn't interfere with makeup, so I was very satisfied using it! It was also great for light application on days without makeup, and I'll likely repurchase after finishing this one. I have sensitive combination skin, and I didn't experience any blemishes while using it. It was perfect for the current dry weather! I hope this helps if you're considering purchasing it.
ConsNo downsides! I'm satisfied that it didn't cause any blemishes.

Texture The product has an emulsion-like consistency that's soft and absorbs well, making it very pleasant to use. A particularly good point is that it leaves an oily finish. Often, when products only provide hydration, there's no protective barrier, so moisture evaporates quickly. This one, however, has oils in the finish that help lock in the hydration. 2. Color As you can see in the photos, there's no visible change to the skin before and after application. Note that there's absolutely no white cast. 3. Scent The sunscreen has no fragrance at all. As someone who prefers unscented products, I was very satisfied with this. 4. Ingredients The ingredients are gentle, and I experienced no blemishes at all. This sunscreen is perfect for those with dry skin, especially in winter when the oily barrier provides complete protection. I highly recommend this for those struggling with deep dryness!
ConsThose with oily skin might find it slightly heavy if used during summer.
TipIf you're looking for a sunscreen that goes beyond just providing hydration and actually helps maintain your skin barrier, I strongly recommend this!

If it were in a squeeze bottle with a watery consistency, it would be hard to control the amount. But the pump dispenser is great - it doesn't release too much at once, giving just the right amount. The feel is moisturizing, yet it absorbs quickly, making it perfect even for hot, humid summers. The lightweight formula allows for easy reapplication, and the pump bottle makes it convenient to carry and use. Another plus is that there's no white cast at all, so you don't need to rub it in excessively like with some products that leave a strong white residue. I'd recommend this to anyone who dislikes sunscreens that leave a white tint on the skin!
ConsThe downside is that the typical sunscreen ingredient scent was a bit off-putting for me, which made me slightly hesitant to use it. Also, since it maintains a moisturizing feel after absorption, it leaves a bit of stickiness. So I wouldn't recommend it to those who dislike formulas that finish with a sticky texture...
TipInstead of applying a large amount at once, it's better to apply small amounts in layers.

This is an organic sunscreen with UV protection (SPF50+, PA++++). It's fragrance-free and applies smoothly without irritating the eyes. There's absolutely no white cast, so it doesn't look like you're wearing sunscreen. I applied cushion foundation over it, and it absorbed well without any pilling. The third and fourth photos compare it to my Make P:rem UV Defense Me Calming Sun Cream. While it absorbs well without leaving a white cast, there's a slight shine visible. Being an organic sunscreen, it applies smoothly like an emulsion and feels moisturizing, making it more suitable for those with dry skin. As someone with combination/oily skin, I found it a bit sticky and shiny, so I needed to use powder to control the oiliness. I did notice a few small blemishes after use. Even when applied generously, it doesn't leave streaks or pill, but it may increase shininess. Those wanting a tone-up effect might need to use an additional brightening moisturizer, which could be inconvenient. I recommend this for dry skin types. It's great that they've excluded coral-harming ingredients like oxybenzone (benzophenone-3) and octinoxate (ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate), showing consideration for the environment. One downside is that the Hwahae product description doesn't mention that it's an organic sunscreen.
ConsProbably due to my combination/oily skin type, I developed a few small blemishes.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsPlease consider my skin type: Dry / Sensitive / Prone to redness / Lots of peach fuzz / Skin tends to feel warm <Texture and Application> The texture feels like a serum with a drop of cream mixed in. It doesn't run as quickly as a serum or toner, but it does have some flow to it! The formula itself is lightweight and hydrating, so it spreads evenly even with a quick application. It's comfortable to apply without feeling heavy, and it absorbs quite fast! <Experience> Since I often wear makeup over sunscreen, I prefer products without a white cast. Not only does this sunscreen have no white cast, but it also doesn't leave a shiny finish despite its hydrating formula, which I really appreciate. Personally, I found it worked well with my usual cushion foundation! I alternate between semi-matte and semi-dewy finishes depending on my skin condition and mood. Both were fine, but given my dry skin, it paired slightly better with the semi-dewy finish. <Blemishes> Strangely, even with supposedly gentle sunscreens, I'd often develop itchy spots after a while. But with this product, I experienced no blemishes or itching! I'm completely satisfied to have finally found a sunscreen that works for me. <Scent & Packaging> The scent is close to fragrance-free. To be honest, if you open the cap and sniff closely, you might detect a slight scent, but who does that regularly? Unless you're extremely sensitive, you probably won't notice any scent! The pump dispenser makes it easy to control the amount and keeps the cap clean - just wipe the nozzle occasionally.
ConsThere weren't really any downsides, except perhaps that the hydrating, easy-to-spread formula might lead to using it a bit more generously than necessary.

There's no heavy, stuffy scent typical of sunscreens. I loved that it's totally unscented. Texture: It has a lightweight, emulsion-essence-like consistency! It absorbs instantly, leaving the skin feeling hydrated without any stickiness, just fresh and comfortable. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I really dislike greasy sunscreens, especially in summer. True to its name, this one is packed with moisture without any oiliness - I absolutely love it! Application: It applies thinly and moisturizes well, with no pilling or flaking. It's perfect as a base before makeup!
ConsThere wasn't anything particularly bad, but those expecting tone-up or coverage might be disappointed. It doesn't leave a white cast and feels more like skincare.

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.ProsThe hydration is fantastic! I don't like applying thick layers of sunscreen, and heavy formulas can be a bit much for me. This one has a lightweight texture that absorbs well and is packed with moisture, which I love! Plus, there's no white cast! I often go makeup-free, and it's perfect for applying lightly after skincare on those days.
ConsWhile there aren't many downsides, it does have a bit of a rich feel, so those with oily skin might find it slightly greasy. I have dry skin, but I tend to layer my skincare heavily. On days when I applied it a bit thickly, I noticed a few blemishes popping up, possibly due to the rich texture. Proper amount control should prevent this issue.
TipAfter experiencing some blemishes, I scaled back my usual skincare routine a bit and was more careful with the amount I applied. This approach worked much better! I'd recommend this method for those with oily or sensitive skin.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsApplication: - It's fantastic! The serum-like texture glides on so smoothly. Absorption: - You can see how quickly it absorbs, leaving no residue on the skin. - It works well with foundation or cushion applied afterwards. - There's absolutely no pilling. - The formula doesn't sit on top of the skin, so you can layer it multiple times! - It feels lightweight. Eye Irritation: - Unlike some mineral sunscreens that can sting the eyes, this one doesn't - great! Tone Correction: - There's no tone correction effect, which makes it perfect to use before makeup. Recently, I've been using mineral sunscreens that tend to pill and feel greasy, so in comparison, this Abib product felt like a much lighter, hydrating sun serum! It's a sunscreen that doesn't make your skin too dry or too oily. What I liked most was that it doesn't affect your skin so much that you need to carefully choose your base makeup to go over it.
ConsThe packaging is very inconvenient! As you can see, the dispenser is on one side. If you don't hold the product in this specific orientation, the contents won't come out. In other words, when you're trying to dispense the sunscreen, it won't work if you pump horizontally - you need to hold it vertically for the product to come out. This turns out to be quite an annoying point. Usually, you pump downwards from the top or sideways from a horizontal position, but with this, you have to hold it upright and pump from bottom to top for the contents to come out. It's quite a peculiar design!
TipIf they could just improve the packaging, I think this product is pretty good! It's not something I'd rave about as 'amazing!' or 'I'll only use this!', but every time I use it, I think 'Oh, this is nice...' or 'Did I even put on sunscreen today? It's so light.' That's the kind of sunscreen it is.

The texture: It's a full-on emulsion! The formula has a slight richness with abundant hydration. When applied, it absorbs just like an emulsion! Adherence: Being an emulsion-like product, there's zero pilling, and it absorbs comfortably like a skin emulsion! Makeup compatibility: I rarely use foundation, mostly cushions. It pairs well with both matte and glowy types, but it's especially great with glowy cushions! The glow is no joke when applied - your face just sparkles and shines. Blemishes: Sometimes I get eye irritation and rashes from moisturizing sunscreens, but this product causes zero eye irritation. After use, my skin feels so comfortable, and it cleanses off easily, so I didn't experience any blemishes at all! I'd definitely repurchase this with my own money once I finish it! Highly recommended!
ConsThere's nothing to dislike, but since you're asking for downsides, I'll write a few words...
TipWhen used with a glowy cushion, your skin looks absolutely amazing!

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.ProsSkin type: Combination / Oily / Sensitive 1. It's so moisturizing! It leaves a slight creamy finish, like you've just applied a light moisturizer. That's why my skin feels less dry later on. 2. Super easy to apply Perfect for those rushed mornings when every second counts. Just two pumps, quickly pat it in, and you're done! It absorbs pretty well too! 3. No darkening effect I usually layer a hydrating sunscreen with a brightening one. Depending on the first sunscreen, my skin can darken quickly. This one doesn't seem to promote any darkening though. 5. Doesn't cause blemishes Despite its rich texture, it doesn't cause breakouts! Even with my super sensitive skin, it worked great for me.
Cons1. The pump dispenser is a bit tricky It's hard to control the amount. The first time I used it, I accidentally pumped out way too much! For reference, two pumps are just slightly more than enough for my face, which isn't particularly large. 2. Rich texture It does feel a bit rich! I'd say it's about 65% hydration, 35% richness. It has a slight serum-like richness to it. Usually, I apply moisturizer before sunscreen, but with this one, I just use serum underneath. 3. Gets quite oily by evening After a long day at work, my skin tends to get oily. If I don't touch up a bit at lunchtime, the oil can really build up by evening. But even then, it doesn't cause breakouts, which is why I still think it's great!
TipFor those with oily skin, I recommend applying this over just your toner and serum. It provides just the right amount of richness that way. Definitely worth trying!
