FAQ
Q. Can the Shingmulnara Body Sunscreen be used on the face too?
The product name says face and body, and some reviews do mention using it on the face, but overall, recommendations for body use are far more common (265 body use reviews). Some reviews say it didn't suit the face because of the white cast and oiliness, and some say it stung when it got in their eyes, so if you use it on the face, we recommend checking with a small amount first.
Q. Is the white cast bad?
111 reviews say there's a white cast and 37 say there's little, so those saying there is one are more common. There are reactions that it's unavoidable for a mineral formula, alongside reactions that it's fine for the body. If you're sensitive to white cast, we recommend testing in store.
Q. How's the spreadability? Is it stiff?
Olive Young's official spreadability has 'average' as the most common response at 47%, and in the reviews, 64 say it's stiff while 135 say it spreads on smoothly. Opinions split here, and there's advice to spread on small amounts in portions.
Q. Is it gentle? Can sensitive skin use it?
120 comments say it's gentle and Olive Young's official 'gentle and low-irritation' is 62%. However, 17 reviews also mention breakouts or stinging, so it varies by person. We recommend sensitive skin test a small amount first. We don't guarantee safety.
