Brand loyalty and Korean beauty trend
Multiple reviews indicate consumers were already fans of MISSHA or Korean sunscreens generally, driving repeat purchases and product trial as part of broader K-beauty adoption.
Price and value for money
Reviewers frequently cite affordability compared to competing sunscreens as a key purchase driver, with comments like 'the price is the best' and 'good price for such good quality' appearing across reviews.
No white cast reputation
Significant number of buyers, particularly consumers of color, explicitly purchased this product after researching sunscreens that do not leave white cast, indicating this attribute was a known selling point.
Lightweight texture appeal
The product's reputation for a light, non-greasy formula that feels imperceptible on skin drove purchases among consumers fatigued by heavy sunscreen formulations.
Gift and recommendation-driven
Several reviews mention purchasing for family members (mother, friend) or purchasing again based on positive personal experience, indicating word-of-mouth and gifting occasions.
