I apply it together with CC cream... I don't have any special tips. Since it's dark, I have to mix it with other products when applying.

The color seems too dark for me. It makes me look overly tanned... I don't think I'll use it often. I'll have to look for a different product.

It seems to provide good coverage even with just a small amount. I need a lighter complexion, so I mix it with other products when applying.

블레미쉬 밤 [브라이트닝]

Initially, it gives a nice glow and feels moisturizing, but the lasting power seems to be lacking. This is especially noticeable in the current dry season.

It's perfect for my dry skin! The application is smooth, and it absorbs well without sitting on top of the skin. It leaves my skin feeling hydrated, not parched!

Since it's a moisturizing BB cream, if you want to minimize transfer when wearing a mask, you might want to set it with some powder.

Since I have a darker complexion, the shade is a bit light, so applying too much can make you look a bit pale. However, it would be perfect for those with fairer skin!

[The Hwahae Testers Review]
Moisturizing with great coverage, but the best part was that there was absolutely no darkening! I have sensitive combination skin with a lot of areas to cover. At first, I was skeptical because it looked like a grayish BB cream, but when applied, there was no gray cast at all. It covered really well, felt hydrating, and even after being out for over 8 hours and wearing a mask, the staying power was so impressive that I didn't need to touch up!

For best results, try using it with a damp beauty sponge. This technique enhances the coverage and gives a lovely finish.

As time passed, I noticed it had a slight tendency to separate on the skin. It would be great if it came in a wider range of shades to suit different complexions.

The coverage was decent, which I appreciated. It provided a nice level of hydration without feeling sticky, making it comfortable to wear. It's gentle enough for those with sensitive skin, which is a big plus.

As someone with redness and visible capillaries on my skin, I found the coverage to be a bit lacking.

The way it absorbs and adheres to the skin was really excellent. I loved how quickly it absorbed into my skin. It didn't leave my face feeling overly greasy, which was great. I'd definitely consider repurchasing this in the future!

Works well when mixed with foundation (due to the color).

The scent is not great (personal preference). It's a bit disappointing that it doesn't provide sun protection.

Moisturizing with medium to high coverage. As a BB cream, it has a slight grayish tint but still gives a radiant look. As the hydration evaporates over time, you start to notice the pearlescent particles. It maintains a glow even after hours of wear. Perfect for casual outings in the neighborhood.

It's a bit heavy for full makeup, but perfect for a quick application before heading out

- Expensive price point
- Barely any coverage
- Fades quickly
- Difficult to control the amount due to its runny consistency

[The Hwahae Testers Review]
- Absorbs beautifully
- Absorbs well into the skin
- Initial scent is like crayons, but the lingering fragrance is reminiscent of acacia blossoms
- Does not leave a grayish cast

While it's said to have sun protection, the exact SPF isn't clearly stated, which is a bit of a concern. Also, the ingredients might cause blemishes for those with combination to oily skin. It's not a universal issue, but if you have sensitive combination-oily skin, you might experience some irritation, especially in this humid weather.

It gives you that natural, bare-faced look - shh, it's our little secret! I think it's such a great product that it's almost too good to keep to myself. I love the natural glow it provides, and the scent is so luxurious. The fragrance really appeals to me!

I suggest using a brightening moisturizer before applying this BB cream. If you're looking for more coverage, you'll need to follow up with a concealer after application.

The downside is the shade range. It's darker than what I usually use, and the coverage is quite sheer. While I typically prefer higher coverage products, this aspect was a bit disappointing.

First off, the scent is lovely! The application feels as smooth as sunscreen, which I really appreciate. I'd recommend this for quick, everyday makeup looks. It's perfect for achieving a natural makeup effect rather than heavy coverage.

1. Coverage
I didn't expect much coverage from this product to begin with, so I wasn't disappointed. Objectively speaking, though, the coverage wasn't great... But personally, I think it works well as a makeup primer.

2. Longevity
As someone who breaks out in sweat at the slightest warmth, I was in tears over the longevity... I wore this while exercising and, well... it didn't work for me. As time passed, it started to darken on my skin.

3. Scent
Hmm... there's an artificial fragrance? My friends said it was fine, but it gave me a bit of a headache...

1. Coverage
Hmm... Personally, I felt the coverage wasn't much different from regular brightening moisturizers. However, unlike typical ones, this has some color to it, so the coverage was ever so slightly better.

2. Application
I found it applied well. For base products like this, I usually just apply them with my hands like an emulsion. When I patted it in, it worked fine for me.

3. Adherence
After patting it in, the adherence was pretty good too.

4. Longevity
Ah... well... I'll have to talk about that below...

If you exfoliate and mix it with aloe gel before applying, it's less likely to emphasize dead skin cells.

It accentuates dead skin cells. It also settles into the creases around my nose. Even my husband, who doesn't know much about makeup, noticed my makeup looked cakey today...

This is a review from The Hwahae Testers. I loved that there was no darkening effect. Usually, with other BB creams, my complexion drops about a shade after 4 hours, but this one stays exactly as it was when I applied it in the morning.

The biggest drawback is the lack of sun protection. While it's not clearly visible in photos, I noticed some pilling around the eyebrows and sides of the nose. With mask-wearing, it just rubbed off around the nose area. Overall, it was disappointing in several ways.

When applied over a brightening moisturizer, it naturally brightens the complexion. It's quite hydrating! Using a puff might help it absorb more evenly and naturally.
