Light and easy to blend.
Leaves behind a slightly dewy and semi-matte finish. For people with oilier skin, it can be easily remedied by blotting or applying face power. Drier skin types will appreciate the slightly dewy finish.
Some oil control properties due to the presence of silica in the product although not in very significant amts.
Does not leave behind a chalky white cast like most sunblocks do. (esp those with high percentages of zinc oxide and/or titanium dioxide)
**No/low alcohol in product and hence does not irritate my sensitive, rosacean skin (major plus since alot of light-textured japanese sunscreens contain a high amt of alcohol)
Rather cheap as compared to most street or high end brands.
Overall a recommended buy if you are on the lookout for a cheap and effective sunblock/sunscreen
However, this does contain silicones which can be a turnoff if you are one who shys away from such ingredients. For me, i have no issue using silicone-based products because i do find that they help to smoothen out the texture of our skin and act as a barrier to retain moisture without clogging my pores :)

I was quite surprised that this sunscreen did not get good comments from the previous reviewers.
This is a drugstore sunscreen, that I really like so far. When applied, it leaves a slight whitish cast on the face, but it doesn't look scary/unnatural against my fair skintone.
I don't quite understand that it leaves a powdery finish, because honestly, I can't notice a cast of powder over my skin.
It's slightly scented, but doesn't bother.....but the best part is that unlikeother suncreens, this one is light-weight-makes u feel as if you have nothing on, and it doesn't DRY out my skin like what Biore did.
My skin stayed constantly hydrated, and i did not experience any discomforts using this.
My only complain is that it does not come with a PA system. I don't know whether this sunscreen filters both UVA and UVB or not.

I got this in a sample size of 6g as opposed to the full size because I wanted to try it out first. It goes on in a whitish thin liquid and dries off to a powdery white finish. Pros - Its good for people who want a whitening effect on their faces (which is why I bought it in the first place) as it leaves a white coating on face. What I Dislike about it - 1) When applying, one must quickly layer on the product before it dries if not it'll appear cakey when you apply on top of the dried white layer. 2) It doesn't apply evenly so when I apply foundation on top, the foundation cakes. I have finished the sample size, but probably won't repurchase.
Update: In the end, I had to repurchase because I was running out of sunscreen and hadn't the time to buy a full size as the mall is quite far from my place. I've decided to take one lippie of the previous 3 lippies I gave it as I realised if I decided to apply more layers of it on my face, my powder foundation caked very badly. Yes, its the same complain as before, but I didn't think that the situation would be aggravated with more layers being applied.

For its price, I can get better sunscreens. Does the job fairly well but it's nothing fantastic. Might repurchase if I don't find better alternatives.
