Awesome
I wanted to see what all the buzz was about for this product and it did NOT disappoint. It's so creamy and smooth and it does NOT leave a white cast on your skin. It's so hydrating and feels so nourishing it seems to melt in your skin. I'm all for Korean skin care to include the mineral sunscreen, however this product... it's properly amazing. No sunburn whilst using retinol which is very important to me. What a pleasant product.

Perfect fit for my sensitive skin
I suffer from acne, and this sunscreen has been a great choice for me. A friend recommended it, and I love that it doesn’t feel heavy or greasy on my skin. The texture is light and somewhat watery, so it takes a few seconds to dry, but once it does, it feels super gentle and comfortable.I also like that I can easily wear it under makeup without feeling weighed down. The scent is very soft and barely noticeable, which I appreciate since I’m sensitive to strong fragrances.Overall, it’s a great sunscreen for acne-prone skin that provides good protection without clogging pores or feeling heavy

Try it! You won’t be sorry!
This is THE BEST SPF moisturizer. It sets perfectly under make up! Other SPF moisturizers pill under make up, stay oily, or don’t soak in. Not with this one! It smells divine- just a light floral/perfume sent to it- not overwhelming or overpowering at all. And it’s SPF 50! Rare to find a high SPF like that in products that are not a full coverage foundation. Will definitely continue to order this. Best I have tried- and I’ve tried about 10 SPF moisturizers recently to replace one that has been discontinued. Would highly recommend!

Decent, but not like the real Japanese one
This sunscreen is good if you're comparing to other American sunscreens, but it's nothing special. Get the one with the small white cap instead. It should say PA++++ on it. That is the Japanese one that can't be made here because it uses ingredients not approved by the FDA. It's way better, just melts into your skin. This product is not bad but I'm not getting it again after realizing it's the American version and you have to rub it in.

Not sweat or water resistant AT ALL!!!
I’ve been looking for a new spf ever since my favorite Korean one got discontinued (centella water-fit sun serum spf 50).Before I was using the centella spf I had actually been using the OG/real version of Biore UV aqua rich spf at some point (the one that was PA++++). That version had the newer (more stable) generation UV filters and it was great aside from being a bit too shiny for my oily skin.But I guess to comply with the fda’s outdated standards, Biore now makes this version of their spf with the usual American uv filters to sell in America.Well whatever, I decided to give it a try after Consumer Reports rated it as one of their best picks for facial spf, but it turned out to be a mistake in my case!I have sensitive oily acne prone skin and this stuff is just too shiny and irritating for me. It’s also not the least bit water or even sweat resistant. Like at ALL.I don’t trust it to provide much spf protection despite CR rating it good because it started sliding off my face and into my eyes within about 20 minutes of being active outside (it was like 5am so not even hot yet!). This isn’t typical for me - in fact I rarely have issues with my spf running into my eyes (and I’ve worn spf every day for decades now!) but this stuff was literally dripping off my face during a light jog in cool weather.Unlike most spf I’ve used the directions even say to reapply every 40 minutes. That’s less than an hour! And it’s also not water resistant so you need something better if you’re going to be in the water. I can’t help but wonder if this is why CR scored it so highly (b/c Biore is being honest and telling people it protects them for less than an hour and not at all in the water?).It does smell nice (watch out if you’re sensitive to fragrance though) and it does create a good canvas for makeup application. It’s hands down better than most drugstore spf in that respect. That’s why I’ll give it 3 stars (it’s possible some of my issues stem from having oily skin). It doesn’t pill and looks great under my liquid mineral makeup, but it also makes it liable to wipe right off my face if anything touches it! My hair kept sticking to my face (really annoying).Another thing is, it seemed to clog my pores and irritate my skin, although I’m not sure why. Ive gone back to using P. Calm’s water barrier sun cream and am way happier with that one (I also like that it’s PA++++ ).I’d definitely rec avoiding this one if you have oily or sensitive skin, and also if you are active or you know, can’t reapply your spf every 40 minutes (so basically most normal people should avoid it IMO). It’s apparently useless if you can’t reapply it multiple times an hour!!!

Light weight, sheer and not sticky
Great lightweight daily sunscreen. One reviewer said the smell is too strong, I hardly notice it! It’s a light citrus smell that dissipates almost immediately. This isn’t sticky like most other sunscreens. Haven’t noticed that it’s broke me out at all. I’m currently using a light weight gel moisturizer and I layer this over top as my last step in my day time skin care routine. So glad I found this as I was tired of the Goop Sunscreen. I recommend this and the Halo SPF by Elf cosmetics. Both lightweight, affordable and not too thick.

Fantastic every day sunscreen
I’ve been using this for 11+ years since I discovered it in a 7-11 in Okinawa. It doesn’t irritate my son’s sensitive skin and provides great coverage. One note is that it isn’t waterproof. So choose something else for a beach or pool day.

Good for oily skin but not so much for dry
I have combo skin so I can use this on my oily parts on its own, but on my dry cheeks I have to apply a regular face moisturizer underneath so for the dry skin types this isn’t moisturizing enough. When it dries, it does have a mattifying effect, again not good for my dry areas under foundation. I can wear it in summer but I prefer a more radiant finish in the winter. It has a VERY light citrusy scent, not a nuisance even for my fragrance sensitive nose.I tried this under a BB cream and that was much better without my skin drying out later in the day. It will be an option for really hot days.
