What the gurus are saying

The water gel texture feels like you're applying water or a light moisturizer, with zero white cast and no sticky or greasy feeling as it sinks in beautifully. The ease of application encourages consistent daily use, though the near-invisible absorption means it's easy to under-apply, so careful application matters. It does contain alcohol and fragrance, which some people prefer but others want to avoid.

"This has been my go-to body sunscreen for summertime. [...] I really don't like wearing body sunscreen normally, especially the heavy duty water-resistant ones that feel like rubbery Barbie doll legs on my skin, but [...] this is a Japanese J-beauty formula with some denatured alcohol in it that helps it [...] dry down and [...] form a film on [...] the skin without that greasy, sitting-on-top feeling."

I Ranked Every Product I Emptied This Summer | Honest Reviews
"I've emptied two of these [...] and actually bought a much bigger pump size to keep using. It's a water gel texture just like the name suggests, not sticky, not greasy, not plasticky, and not gross on my skin like regular body sunscreens are. There's no white cast, [...] it sinks in beautifully, [...] and I feel incredibly protected with no tan lines."
✓Yay
"The texture is perfect, [...] not too runny, just thick enough to [...] work with. The only real catch [...] is that it's easy to under apply because it sinks into your skin so beautifully. It uses four sunscreen filters [...] so you get absolutely no white cast. [...] This is as close to perfect as I feel you can get in a sunscreen, as long as you're okay with those two ingredients."
