Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • It’s not my favorite sunscreen (I prefer the Skin Aqua line) but it’s waaaayyyyyy better than this abomination
  • I have been using the Skin Aqua this summer and really love it.
  • I love the Skin Aqua from Japan, and K beauty products in general.
  • I also use Skin Aqua and stock up every year in Japan...but I've never used this one. But for anyone who has not tried Skin Aqua; it's superb
  • welp, time to toss the remainder of that US Birch Juice sunscreen my husband was using and just have him swap to my Skin Aqua instead.

Cons

  • I brought Skin Aqua’s sunscreen to Korea for my summer vacation. It felt normal and not drying during the whole day. When I rewore the sunscreen in Canada, my god did I have to moisturize with snail mucin and face cream before putting it...
  • Skin Aqua (both green and purple) was terrible for me. For some reason it just wouldn’t sink into the skin, didn’t matter whether I’d moisturised or exfoliated
  • The one I got had a stronger scent and the packaging was the old yellow and gold one.
  • Kose suncut UV gel for spf, keeps me matte compared to other more popular Skin Aqua or Nivea spfs!
  • I love Skin Aqua, but I wouldn’t recommend it for oily skin, since it’s quite glowy

Skin Aqua. Sweat proof but I suspect less so than Anessa and Allie.

Skin Aqua is the best one, I’m on my 5th bottle

Yeah, I still use it, but I’ve found myself moving on to Skin Aqua and Skin1004 sunscreens for the same reason.
