Cons✔️Naturalness of tone-up -Basically, it covers a wide area with a small amount, but it is easy to fail to adjust the amount, and the face becomes too white and floating. ✔️Persistence -If you apply it in the morning and go out, the tone-up seems to disappear after about 2 hours. On the other hand, it's quite stuffy to reapply it while carrying it. ✔️Stuffiness/Oiliness -As mentioned earlier, if you apply the product after applying lotion and sunscreen, it will become very stuffy and oily. Although it has UV protection function, it is a little uneasy to skip the sunscreen, so I am applying the sunscreen together. ✔️Clogging -Clogging occurs in the areas around the nose or beard. It's not as annoying as it is to the eye, but it often doesn't come off unless you double cleanse.
TipWhen using it with other products, sebum powder can help absorb excess oil.

While tone-up creams are typically more suitable for use in the summer when the skin is more exposed, this product is a bit different. It has a fairly oily feel and gives a sense of a protective layer on the skin, which may be a love-it-or-hate-it experience. However, it is still a product that can be highly recommended for dry skin in the winter. Since each user has different preferences for formulations and skin types, it is recommended to test it first before purchasing. 2. A new proposal for men. When looking at the gender breakdown of tone-up cream users, women are likely to be the overwhelming majority. I am fully aware that many men these days are showing interest in cosmetics, and it is no longer seen as strange. However, I have encountered situations where the burden of "just doing it a little more naturally" was not fully considering the skills and selection methods of men using cosmetics. In this sense, tone-up creams can brighten the skin naturally, and eliminate the drawbacks of other base makeup products, such as darkening, the need for correction, and choosing a color that differs from the skin tone.
Cons1. Stuffy feeling. I felt a stuffy feeling as if a film had been placed on my skin. I expected it to function as a makeup base or primer between skincare and makeup, but it failed to bridge the two steps and instead gave me a stuffy, obstructive feeling. 2. Clumping. This is related to the stuffy feeling mentioned in the first point. The product has a texture that feels quite oily when applied to the skin. Rather than spreading evenly, it tends to clump up and feels gritty. While this wasn't a major concern and I didn't obsess over it, the clumping sensation was still disappointing. This doesn't mean it gave a natural, luminous or oily appearance when blended with the base makeup. 3. Too white. It gives more of a whitening effect than a tone-up effect. It literally just makes the skin look whiter, rather than enhancing the natural tone. I was able to compensate for this issue to some extent through usage, but I wish the product had a pink or yellow-toned color instead, as that would have been easier to work with. I'll provide some tips on how to address this downside below. 4. Price. There are many other tone-up creams available on the market. I don't particularly recommend this one considering the price.
TipIf it's too white? This was my first time using a tone-up cream, and I prefer a natural makeup look. So when I first used it, it was too white and the difference in tone with my neck was a problem, which I struggled with several times. This is the method I chose to use it more naturally. 1-1. Mix with cream. If you apply it all over your face and neck for an overall tone-up, it's fine, but if you, like me, prefer a slightly more transparent and clear look, mix it with the last skincare product you use before applying. I mix the tone-up cream and my moisturizer in a 2:1 ratio, then finish with sunscreen. This allows for a more natural expression. You can also apply this to your body. 1-2. Use as a highlighter. You don't necessarily need to apply it all over. Highlight only the areas you want, such as the forehead, nose bridge, and chin. It looks much more natural and like your own skin than using a separate highlighter product. It's also fine to apply it all over first, then add an extra layer to the areas you want to highlight. 2. Reviving a wrongly purchased base makeup product. If your skin has tanned in the summer, your preferences have changed, or you just happened to choose the wrong shade, and you have a base makeup that's darker than your skin tone that you can't use, try mixing it with a tone-up cream. It may take several tries and failures to match your skin tone, but who cares? You can revive a product you were about to throw away in your vanity!

Since I don't have professional knowledge, I'll write down my thoughts and feelings. I've been using the product for about 10 days, and as it's a pump-type, it's very convenient to control the amount. The delivery and packaging were also fine. When I applied it evenly on my face and neck, I felt that it brightened up more naturally than I expected! I've tried a couple of other brands' tone-up creams, and while they did brighten, they often felt heavy or obvious. But this one didn't have those issues! As mentioned in the usage instructions, I also used it on my elbows and heels (though I haven't tried it there), and it seemed to help, even if the effect wasn't dramatic. I think I'll purchase this product again!
ConsThere was a slightly heavy/sticky feeling?? I would apply this after cleansing, toning, and moisturizing, and then sunscreen. But since I tend to run a bit hot, when I'd put this on top of the sunscreen, it would feel a bit stuffy. So when I'd hurry to get ready and go out without fully cooling down, the stuffy feeling would make me feel even hotter. But I don't really see this being a big issue for most people, since I don't often come across others who are as heat-sensitive as I am! I don't use any other makeup products besides filling in my brows, so I'm not sure about how it wears with other cosmetics. But other than that, I didn't have any other major issues!

I have acne (including redness) and my skin tone is really dark. But when I apply the tone-up cream thinly, the redness is covered, and I really like it! And I have extremely oily skin, but I was worried that it might get greasy later, but it didn't! I have sensitive skin and was worried that it might cause breakouts, but so far, there hasn't been any major issue.
ConsIt's fine now, but a few small pimples did come up while I was using it. After applying it, there's a slightly sticky feeling? My face feels a bit stuffy.
TipApply it thinly ~ that's the most natural look

Packaging True to DTRT, the packaging is good. Especially with the pump type, it is convenient and hygienic to use. The feel of pressing the pump is also nice. It's a bit annoying when these kinds of things make a fuss. 2. Natural Tone-Up My skin is originally quite fair, but I often use BB creams. (DTRT, Boys Be Bold) I use them when I want to show a well-groomed complexion, and this product provides a more natural tone-up than BB creams. However, the coverage is not as good as BB creams. It contains green capsules, so there is a slight greenish tint when applied, but it looks natural after application. I was a bit startled at first, thinking it was dirt. 3. Cleansing It washes off more than half with just water. Unlike BB creams, you don't need to scrub hard to remove fingerprints, as it wipes off easily.
Cons1. Stuffy When applied directly to bare skin, there is a slightly damp and covered feeling. It gets better over time, but during the oily time of the day, which is a characteristic of men's skin, I'm afraid it might get sticky. Applying it thickly may give a feeling of peeling off some dead skin. 2. Fragrance (may vary depending on personal preference) There is a refreshing+bright+pine needle extract-like fragrance that can sometimes be found in DTRT products. It doesn't quite suit my preference for a heavier fragrance, but if you want to use it as a cosmetic fragrance, you'll have to apply a perfume as a skin product. 3. Others Since it's not waterproof, I'm afraid my face will look like a bowl of white beef broth if sweat starts to flow. And there's no SPF rating, so I'll have to apply a separate sunscreen product. As a man, who is the animal of annoyance, that's a bit disappointing.
