I used a sample. It's a nostalgic type of sunscreen. It's a whitening type, which is rare these days. This type of sunscreen is fine when you don't have any skin problems, but if you do have problems and your skin becomes uneven, it can make your skin look dirty, so I don't think I would buy it since I have atopic dermatitis, but the packaging gives off the impression that it's gentle on the skin, and it's not too expensive, so I can't help but want to buy it. I like Kusahana Moka's packaging because it's cute and clean overall.
The daytime serum I used before was discontinued (Ignis White Parasol), so I was looking for something better and found this product. I'm concerned about sunburn all year round. It had good reviews and was reasonably priced, so I was a little hesitant, but I decided to buy it. The first time I used it, I didn't shake the bottle properly, so it felt very sticky and oily after application. The second time, I shook the bottle properly. It brightened my skin tone, concealed my pores, and smelled great, so I'm glad I bought it. However, I did notice that my hands felt sticky after application, like after applying sunscreen. I don't think I'll repurchase it for now, as there's no place nearby where I can buy it. I'm thinking of trying Dew's daytime serum next.
It's a great value as it has three functions in one! I don't like rubbing my face over and over, so it's great that it works as a serum, sunscreen, and primer, which saves me time ( ). It's not sticky and feels smooth, so I can put on makeup right away.
It has a whitening effect and a soothing scent, making it my favorite serum.
I use NOV's UV Lotion EX every day, and it was about to run out, so I bought some online without thinking too much about it. I regret it for the first time in a while. I guess the good reviews are because there are so many test users (wry smile). First of all, when it arrived I thought "It's so small!" It's smaller than I thought. Oh, 25ml... It's a white, smooth liquid. (It's more viscous than NOV). What I regret is that it whitens your skin. It doesn't tone up your skin, it just whitens it. There's no point in applying it thinly because you're worried about it turning white, right? But you don't want it to turn white, right? I applied it at least around my cheeks, and when I layered it, it turned white. It didn't give any shine or anything, and it just felt like I was covered in a thin white film. It's similar to my impression of La Roche-Posay. It's certainly appreciated that it doesn't contain UV absorbers and has an SPF50+/PA++++ rating, and I can understand why it turns white to achieve that number. I've tried several sunscreens with similar functions, but I tried it, but I realized that it's impossible to meet all of these requirements for everyday use: the feel (finish), and the fact that it's non-chemical. It's not that this product is particularly bad. It's just the way it is. If you're going outdoors and won't be using it every day, a chemical-free product would be better. By the way, this product is called a "serum," but it's not a serum in the true sense of the word. It doesn't say that you should use this one bottle after washing your face, nor does it say that you should use it before lotion or cream. It's a confusing description... Basically, it's just sunscreen. (The definition of a serum itself is vague, but normally it goes lotion → serum → lotion or cream, right?)
