I've been using it for about 6 months, but I don't plan to repurchase it. Hmm... I can't really remember what I liked about it. Compared to physical sunscreens, it's more gentle, but the Lapno physical sunscreen is still much smoother. Does it provide good UV protection? Well, it's okay, but not much different from other products.
ConsIt's sticky. It's alright compared to physical sunscreens, but still not great. Acne Wow... I used to have relatively few acne issues, but ever since I started using this, I've been breaking out like crazy. I tried using the Black Paint Wash from Olive Young, and that did help reduce it a bit. It's itchy. Extremely so. It feels similar to the Primera sun cushion, but if I had to choose, I'd go with the Primera sun cushion as it gives a nicer tone-up effect. This also causes an oil explosion. It's sticky and oily. My skin is dry on the inside, but on the outside, the oil just keeps oozing out. I wonder why... They say it helps with whitening, but haha, not for me.
TipSigh, I miss the oil explosion of the Lapno physical sunscreen... When will I find the right sunscreen for me...?

I believe I received it as a free gift when I bought the Cynic First Essence. I wasn't expecting much, but it turned out to be quite a moisturizing type. It applies smoothly and gently, so it would likely be better suited for those with dry skin. I've mainly been applying it to my arms, and it doesn't feel sticky at all, so it works well as a body product.
ConsI tend to dislike oily or heavily moisturizing sunscreens, especially in the height of summer. And since this product contains some of the 20 ingredients I try to avoid, I've been a bit hesitant to use it. I'm already using the Dr. G sunscreen that I purchased, so I've been applying this one to my limbs instead of my face. I'd recommend this product to those who prefer a more powdery, dry feel. Applying too much could make it feel quite greasy.
TipThis product has been discontinued and is now being sold under the name 'Safety'. The reformulated version seems to be an improvement. There's no real need to hunt down the discontinued item online.

ConsThere seems to be a slight whitening effect, but it goes away when applied properly.

It spreads on just like lotion or a light cream. The application is top-notch! And it doesn't leave a greasy or sticky residue, which I like.
ConsPerhaps because it's organic, there's a slight stinging sensation. Even though it doesn't contain any allergens, when I apply it, my face turns red, my eyes water, and I start sneezing 😢 It may just be a personal characteristic, but aside from that, it's really good.

I'm very satisfied with this aspect. There's no grittiness. The product contains mineral filters, but the typical grittiness, thick application, and fingerprint issues have been minimized. It provides a subtle tone-up effect, just the right amount.
ConsThere's an uncomfortable tightness when first applied. And it causes some watery breakouts ㅠㅠㅠ My skin was in its prime before using this, but you ruined it ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
TipLet's distinguish between 'safety' and 'safe'ㅠㅠ I thought it was 'safe', but upon closer inspection, it was actually 'safety'.

Those who dislike white cast may not like it... The spreadability is also good.
ConsThere is a white cast, so even when applying the right amount, my face just looks ghostly white.
TipIf you don't apply all at once but divide it into several applications, you can at least prevent your face from becoming completely white.

It feels just like applying a lotion, and it has a lot of oil content, so I think it would be good for people to use in the winter when doing makeup. The oiliness makes my face look shiny, like I've applied a pearl base. Even with a matte foundation, it adheres really well.
ConsThere are quite a few cautionary ingredients, but the usage experience is really good... You'll just have to consider which aspects to prioritize.
TipThe scent is like cucumber soap! It's not overpowering, just subtle.

Compared to the Mild Sun Essence I mainly use, it feels a bit less smooth, but it applies well compared to other mineral sunscreens. It spreads smoothly even when I apply a base or BB cream over it.
ConsI'm still not sure, but the ingredients flagged as cautions on Hwahae are concerning to me.
TipAfter using it and searching on Hwahae, I saw there were more caution ingredients than I expected. Please check them when purchasing.
