There is no whitening or shine. A mild, refreshing scent like water or peppermint is slightly noticeable. It contains niacinamide and madecassoside ingredients, which help with whitening and soothing. The PPD value is 19, indicating a high UVA protection level. The SPF value is a standard 50. This is a good product for oily skin.
ConsThere were no particular disappointments. There may be some who find the Hwahae fragrance burdensome. For those with dry skin, the formulation was a bit lightweight.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsSince my skin type is dry, the serum's lightweight formula was a perfect fit for me. Even though my condition hasn't been great lately, the hydrating sun serum has prevented any new blemishes from popping up, which suggests the ingredients are beneficial for my skin. The packaging is convenient to use, with a tidy opening, and it's especially great for carrying around. Most sunscreens tend to take up a lot of space, but as someone who frequently carries cosmetics, this is a plus. When I first used it, there was a strong, refreshing menthol-like sensation, but I've since adapted to it. The makeup applies smoothly and doesn't budge, and it's been perfect for the dry weather we're having now in spring. The non-greasy, moisturizing finish is very pleasant to use.
ConsIf you dislike a very watery formulation or want a definite tone-up effect, this product is not recommended.

It feels like applying a soft, fluffy lotion, and in the summer, I can just use the essence and it's enough. The usage experience is very good. It's also great that I can complete cleansing with just one foaming cleanser.
ConsI have doubts whether this really lasts for 24 hours. I have checked the spreadability and the feel, but whether it lasts for 24 hours after application, is easy to wash off, and provides good UV protection are aspects I cannot verify myself, so I'm not sure about that.
TipThe product is a goat if it performs as described. I think I'll keep buying and using it.

Since I had rosacea before, if any ingredient doesn't suit me, my cheeks immediately become flushed. ■ [Reasons for wanting to try the Sunscreen Serum] These days, sunscreen serums are constantly mentioned on YouTube, and YouTubers keep reviewing them. I've never used a sunscreen serum before, and since it's a mineral sunscreen, there was a slight entry barrier, but even though mineral sunscreens are said to be gentle, I still felt dryness inside, so I wanted to try the sunscreen serum. ■ [Usage Experience] *Is this really a sunscreen? Isn't it a serum? *It's lightweight *No white cast *No dryness inside My skin tends to have a lot of peeling. When I apply mineral sunscreen, it can sometimes make my skin look whiter, and then it's hard to apply makeup on top. To solve this, I used the Mediheal Sunscreen Serum, and since it's a serum formula, it absorbed quickly without any white cast. Even after a long time, there was no tightening sensation characteristic of mineral sunscreens, probably because it contains a hydrating essence. I also really cared about how well it cleansed off. I only do a light makeup routine, so a single cleanse is enough for me. The product description said it wipes off cleanly with just one cleanse, and that was true - there were no remnants of peeling skin. The next day, I also didn't get any more breakouts. Since in the winter, mineral sunscreens tend to feel particularly drying on me, I think the sunscreen serum will work well for me in the fall and winter seasons. I'm looking forward to experiencing its benefits again then! ■[Packaging] The dropper tube is very convenient. The last photo shows how it looks when you just lightly squeeze it - it comes out nicely without making a mess. Since it's a serum formula, they seem to have designed it this way.
ConsI got the order mixed up. My routine is to apply toner > serum > cream and then sunscreen. But I applied the sun serum after the cream, and it felt a bit odd (although it absorbed well without any pilling). I also tried the routine of toner > serum > sun serum > cream, but I still feel a bit odd about it. Haha.
TipThe absorption of the serum is quite fast and effective, so even if the previously used serum is slightly sticky, it will not interfere.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe Hwahae Skin Serum is a moisturizing and refreshing suncare product that leaves the skin feeling soft and supple. True to its name as a 'moisture skin serum', it applies like a nourishing serum, providing hydration without any white cast or stickiness. This daily suncare item effectively manages sun exposure while being a pleasure to use, with no skin irritation or breakouts experienced during use. The tube packaging design also keeps the product opening clean and tidy. Additionally, it does not interfere with makeup application, allowing for seamless use before makeup. The scent is similar to the Mediheal Calming line, with a subtle green aroma that is not overpowering. The rapid absorption and effective sun protection make this an increasingly appealing product to incorporate into one's routine.
ConsTo be honest, I don't feel like there are any downsides. The only thing I can think of is that it would be nice if the capacity was a bit larger.
TipHwahae is great for layering before makeup, as it is non-sticky and can also be used on the body, such as the arms.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe Mediheal Madecassoside Moisture Sun Serum was gently and well used. The product opening is narrow and round, so it was good to apply directly to the face. The serum has the appropriate viscosity and moisture content for a serum. On days when my skin condition is good or I'm just going out for a short time, I apply toner, moisture essence, and the Mediheal sun serum. On days when my skin is sensitive and feels hot or I'm out for a long time, I apply up to the cream step and then the sun serum. There was no stinging sensation when applying it around the eyes. The scent is like an oriental herbal shampoo with a mint note. The scent lingers for a while after just applying the sun serum, but it's not a headache-inducing perfume scent, so it's okay. Compared to the Plant World Light Moisture Sun Gel Lotion and the Round Lab Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Cream: The viscosity is close to the serum/lotion/cream names, respectively. They are all transparent and moisturizing types, so there's no issue with application. The moisture content is Mediheal=Plant World<Round Lab. The temporary moisture sensation after applying the Mediheal sun serum is like applying a serum, while the Plant World feels like nothing is applied. Both Mediheal and Plant World felt a bit dry a few hours later without a cream. The Round Lab is the richest among the three, and in summer, it can replace the cream step in my morning skincare routine. The richness made it suitable for me to use in dry seasons like winter. The stinging sensation is Mediheal=Plant World<Round Lab, but this can vary by individual. The irritation level is also Mediheal=Plant World<Round Lab, but the Round Lab is also quite non-irritating.
ConsI wrote it with great satisfaction, There may be people who dislike the fragrance It has the scent of a traditional Korean medicine anti-hair loss shampoo. In fact, it may be a better choice for those who dislike the typical sunscreen scent.
TipThose with normal or dry skin may find this product sufficient to apply after toner. It also seems to pair well with makeup. There was no pilling or emphasis of flaky skin.

The feel is refreshing and non-sticky. The review: It adheres well to the skin. It applies lightly without a heavy feel, so it's perfect for using these days! I recommend it to those looking for a refreshing, non-sticky sunscreen. The ingredients also seem good, so it feels like my skin is improving.✨ Since the formula is lightweight, it would be good to reapply multiple times on days without makeup.
ConsThere was nothing in particular! The ingredients were good and the spreadability was good as well! No troubles arose either
TipHwahae is non-sticky, so I apply it to the back of my hands before using hand cream!

There's a time difference, so the review will be a bit late~~ I'll start the review of the sunscreen I brought to Hawaii! Completely moisturizing feel, A formula that can be used on any skin type, I'm sensitive, troubled, and combination, but I didn't have any issues after applying this! It absorbs right away after application, and I even applied BB cream on top, but it didn't budge! Summer is starting in Korea too, and the sun is getting hotter and hotter, but I felt reassured after applying this! It's not humid in Hawaii either, so I was able to apply it in multiple layers without worrying about it running off!
ConsIt's a shame there were no downsides! There were no troubles either! If you don't like thin consistency, you may dislike it!
TipI applied sunscreen and then layered on BB cream or foundation. It didn't slide off, which I really liked! If you want a dewy complexion, just using one product should be great.

It has no whitening effect and is moisturizing, absorbing quickly+it doesn't turn white over time.
ConsThere were no particular downsides. As someone with severe skin dryness who tends to develop white flaky skin after applying sunscreen, this product was a perfect fit for me.

It applies lightly like a moisture serum, yet absorbs deeply into the skin, and finishes refreshingly without stickiness, making it really great for daily use. Especially since it has SPF50+ PA++++, the UV protection is powerful, and I liked that it applies transparently without any white cast. I was able to use it comfortably without irritation even on sensitive skin days, and when used before makeup, it helped create a smooth base without slipping.
ConsThis product is quite moisturizing, so those with oily skin may experience a slight shiny appearance during the summer. It's not a completely matte type, so if you're concerned about greasiness, I'd recommend testing it out. Additionally, it doesn't have a separate brightening function, so if you were hoping for a radiant, luminous effect, you may be a bit disappointed. The fragrance is subtle, but it may be slightly irritating for those with sensitive skin.
TipThis is really great if you use it like a moisturizing primer before makeup. It helps control dryness and keeps the skin texture smooth, so the foundation applies much better. I'd recommend layering it on thinly multiple times rather than using a lot at once. In the afternoon when it gets dry, you can dab a small amount on the back of your hand and lightly apply it to your cheeks or forehead - this will revive the radiant glow and make your skin look even prettier. It also doesn't transfer much onto the mask, so it's really nice for everyday use.
