Outstanding HG sunscreen that ticks every box
This is a faultless sunscreen. High protection, combination of physical and chemical filters, fragrance and alcohol free so excellent for sensitive skin and feels fantastic on the skin. It leaves no white cast that I can see, is excellent under makeup and extremely lightweight. Moisturising, yet not greasy or sticky feeling. Dries more slowly than high alcohol Japanese sunscreens, but still extremely fast compared many others. It has a bit of a glossy finish (perhaps where the Mermaid comes from in the name) but that's visual, not textural as it is quite matte on the skin. The bottle is small and I wish it were bigger, but it is a convenient and elegant size for the purse or bag for reapplying and I use cheaper sunscreens on the body anyway and reserve this for my face as is my practice with any cosmetically elegant formula. It works out to be nearly twice the price of comparable Australian facial "drugstore" sunscreens when you consider product amount but I'm more than happy to pay it as it is so much better.Read full review

HG Daily Face Sunscreen
Doesn’t break me out, dries down mostly matte, doesn’t sting my eyes, doesn’t pill up over other products, doesn’t leave a white cast, keeps melasma in check - though I use French sunscreen when I plan to spend an extended amount of time outside due to the guaranteed/higher PPD ratings of European sunscreens. However, Canmake is a great daily PA++++ cosmetically elegant Japanese sunscreen that utilizes some of the newer UV filters not approved in the US. Only wish it came in a larger size than a 40ml tube!Read full review

I love it
It’s a chemical spf sunscreen. Feels very light on skin, it is very easy to put it on. It doesn’t leave a greasy feeling and the protection seems great. I will defenitely repurchase it.

Perfect face sunscreen
Great on the face, gentle formula, no white cast... Perfect level of SPF and PA for everyday use in harsh sun. It's perfect to wear under makeup :)

I like it.
A lot nicer than anything available in the US. I still put on 100+ spf chemical sunscreen first on my melasma areas and use mineral spf powder on top but I don't notice that I'm getting greasy or anything. It absorbs quickly. No increase in breakouts. No white cast. I love it!! I have to be very careful with the sun nowadays because I get blotchy brown spots and I look for a certain thing from my sunscreens. This ones got it!!Read full review

Amazing sunscreen!
Natural finish, great sunscreen. It takes longer to absorb, but that's the price for an alcohol-free formulae. The only 2 downsides: #1 if you're gonna sweat - this is NOT for you! It will come right off. #2 is the price per mL. I'm paying around 3x as much for this compared to the SkinAqua Super Moisture gel. If I could afford the 3x price hike, I'd switch to this sunscreen. But right now, I'm continuing with the SkinAqua. Read full review

light and smooth, great for sensitive skin
probably the best sunscreen I've had. It's very light, not sticky as most, leaves a very mild shine which quickly disappears, and doesn't irritate the skin, which is also a huge plus for my ultra sensitive easily irritated skin . I'm from Israel and now in the hot humid summer days I am actually applying it instead of hydration cream before going outside. Loved it, ordered three more right after I received the first one and tried it.Read full review

Heavenly but small package
This has become a favorite and will definitely be repurchased. Its unfortunate that it isnt available in a large size.

My HG sunscreen for glowing skin
My favorite sunscreen. It gives a beautiful healthy glow to my face, perfect to wear under powder or makeup. It smells great, goes on smoothly, is hydrating, but doesn't leave my skin greasy or white. It is a tiny bottle so it will go fast, but I wear this whenever I want to look extra glowing or if I want to skip the makeup. Just a little powder takes care of any shine.Read full review

Really good UV gel
This is the best sun protection cream for face i ever tried. It absorbs into skin quickly and it doesn't have any strong smell. After use i don't have any breakouts. Also applying foundation after canmake gel is easy and sun never gets me.Read full review
