Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

The hydrophilic trait of Pentylene Glycol makes it a humectant. As a humectant, Pentylene Glycol helps draw moisture from the air to your skin. This can help keep your skin hydrated.
This property also makes Pentylene Glycol a great texture enhancer. It can also help thicken or stabilize a product.
Pentylene Glycol also acts as a mild preservative and helps to keep a product microbe-free.
Some people may experience mild eye and skin irritation from Pentylene Glycol. We always recommend speaking with a professional about using this ingredient in your routine.
Pentylene Glycol has a low molecular weight and is part of the 1,2-glycol family.

Carbomer is a polymer of acrylic acid. Its main role is to create a gel consistency.
A high amount of carbomer can cause pilling or balling up of products. Don't worry, most products contain 1% or less of carbomer.
Xanthan gum is used as a stabilizer and thickener within cosmetic products. It helps give products a sticky, thick feeling - preventing them from being too runny.
On the technical side of things, xanthan gum is a polysaccharide - a combination consisting of multiple sugar molecules bonded together.
Xanthan gum is a pretty common and great ingredient. It is a natural, non-toxic, non-irritating ingredient that is also commonly used in food products.

Amazing!
I just HAD to submit this product so I could add it to my routine on here Lol. Have been on a hunt for a good, fragrance-free and lightweight sunscreen and finally found it!. It's meant for babies so my sensitive skin has been fine, no white-cast, absolutey no smell, super lightweight, and absorbs fast. My sunscreen hunt is over!
Was looking for a niacinamide-free sunscreen and stumbled upon this.
IMO the texture and finish is very similar to Purito Daily Soft Touch sunscreen. Doesn't sting or irritate me at all.
However it is very moisturizing so its tad heavy. Will look slightly greasy/sticky. I wouldn't recommend this for oily skin tbh. I believe dry skin would love this one.

decent sunscreen
pretty decent sunscreen, but it leaves a slight white cast and can sting the eyes a little bit. it’s also very strongly scented; however, the tube size is big compared to other korean sunscreens. overall, i won’t repurchase when i’m out, but it’s a decent option.
A lightweight, non-sticky (not dry touch) water-resistant sunscreen.
Really nice for summer as it's not suffocating at all nor does it feel like it's melting off your face when you're outside on a hot day. Re-application feels just the same as the first, it doesn't add any heaviness or greasiness. Works pretty well under makeup, too. Tends to gather in my under-eye area.
