numbuzin no.1 pure-full calming water sunscreen

when i knew that i was going to south korea, numbuzin was one of the brands that i knew i have to buy something from. i have several products that i want to try from them. some i ended up buying, but some not. however, their sunscreen was not on my list at first. but when i tried them while i was at olive young, i liked their texture, so i put them in my basket. and there was an 1+1 deal as well, so it was quite a steal.

this is the description from olive young: this is a water sunscreen which contains 49.8% cream made with calming plants. the sun protection factor is SPF 50+ PA ++++. this product completed a non-comedogenic test, has a primary skin irritation index of 0.00, and it lasts for 10 hours. it hs 95% satisfaction with its application as easy as applying skincare products, 100% for not feeling stuffy even when applied in large amounts, 100% for quick absorption and refreshing feeling, 100% for moisturized and soothed skin, 100% for a fitted makeup that does not get cakey. it shows 92,77% durability when used once. non-irritating cooling care is possible all year round, reducing the temperature by 4.05 C right after one use. it retains 98,9% moisture even in high-temperature and dry environments. easy to wash off with cleansing foam without having to worry about acne and environmentally friendly. reef safe product. it can be used safely for acne-prone skin. this is a reef safe product that does not contain 23 types of fragrance allergens, reducing sebum by 28.16%, reducing blackheads by 16,06% and reducing whiteheads by 24,29% after one use. formulated with soothing cream, it has a sheer base that is fresh and moist until the last moment. it is recommended if your skin feels oily and needs something lightweight for summer, or if your skin feels dry and needs a layer of moisturizing film for winter or during the change of seasons.

the tube
the packaging: as i've said, i bought the 1+1 deal, so the box is a light green with the picture of the product inside at front. there's description at the back in korean as well as the ingredients list. inside, there are two tubes, both 50 ml in size. the sunscreen comes in a light green plastic squeeze tube with screw cap. another description at the back of the tube. there's a spout to dispense the sunscreen and everything works well. 
a bit description at the back
the scent: i think this one is scentless but of course there's some scent from the ingredients. fortunately, it's quite subtle and not annoying at all. it doesn't have that specific scent that most sunscreens have.
the spout tip
the product: it's a white creamy gel type sunscreen. i don't know whether it's the lighting or the tube, but somehow it looks a bit greenish in my eyes. it's slightly thicker than my previous azarine sunscreen but it's still easy to spread around. it's quite creamy so i was afraid that it would make my skin oily at first. but later i found out that it wasn't a problem.

the result: this one gives a bit glow but it settles down to satin finish once it's completely absorbed. again, i don't have any problem with oiliness even though it is creamier than my previous sunscreen. this also doesn't leave white cast as well. right after spreading it around, it doesn't give any white cast. however, i'm quite fair to begin with, so if you have darker skintone, you might want to check the review from someone who has deeper skin tone than mine. when i start using this sunscreen, my skin was not in good condition, but i kept using this suncreen. and after awhile, my skin condition gets better. so i can vouch that this sunscreen is acne-friendly. 

i have to say that i like this sunscreen. although it's creamier than my preference, but it's still pass the bar for me. it doesn't leave white cast, it doesn't make my skin greasy as the day goes by, and it doesn't irritate my skin when i get acne. if i can get it here at reasonable price, i will definitely repurchase this. i think this is suitable for all skin types, but if you have super oily skin, you might want to try the tester first and try whether it suits to your liking. however, i can vouch that this sunscreen can bear hot weather because it's been hot for a week or two when i used this sunscreen. i forgot the price, but i'm sure it will be much more expensive if it becomes available here. availability wise, for now, it's not available here yet, but if you're in korea, it's widely available in olive young.
