FAQs
Is this sunscreen water-resistant?
While it is designed for daily wear, always check the specific packaging for water-resistance ratings if you intend to use it for swimming or heavy sweating.
Can I use this on my body?
While formulated for the face, it can be used on the body, though the 90g tube is optimized for facial application convenience.
Does it have a strong scent?
It features a White Floral scent, which is refreshing but noticeable; those sensitive to fragrance may want to patch-test first.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
While it is a high-quality product, the inclusion of fragrance means those with highly reactive or fragrance-allergic skin should exercise caution.
How do I remove this sunscreen?
Use a gentle facial cleanser or a makeup remover, as the long-lasting formula is designed to adhere well to the skin.
Troubleshooting
Product leaves a white cast
Ensure you are massaging the gel thoroughly into the skin until completely clear. Using too much product at once can cause temporary streaking.
Makeup pills over the sunscreen
Allow the gel to set on your skin for 2-3 minutes before applying foundation, or ensure your moisturizer is fully absorbed before applying the sunscreen.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-level broad-spectrum sun protection
- Lightweight texture that layers well under makeup
- Visible tone-up effect for a brighter complexion
- Easy to apply and absorbs without sticky residue
- Suitable for daily facial application
Cons
- Contains fragrance which may not suit all skin types

- Requires regular reapplication if outdoors for extended periods
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve maximum effectiveness, apply the gel as the final step in your morning skincare routine after your moisturizer has fully absorbed. Dispense a coin-sized amount and dot it across your forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin, then blend outward. This product is compatible with most liquid and powder foundations. Store the tube in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the formula. Because it is a brightening sun gel, ensure thorough removal at the end of the day using a standard facial cleanser or makeup remover to prevent product buildup.
