Personally, I prefer this one. I like the matte finish, and it gives a nice subtle brightening effect when applied.
ConsIt's less whitening than Rosy, so you might wonder if it's actually evening out your skin tone. However, if you compare it to your bare neck, you'll notice it does subtly brighten your complexion in a natural way. If you prefer a more noticeable brightening effect, I'd recommend using shade 3 Rosy instead.

ConsI usually use shades 17-19, but even though this is a brightening moisturizer, it didn't brighten my already fair skin. Applying more made it look too cakey and unnatural. I'd somewhat recommend it for those with darker skin tones, but not for those with fair skin in the 20 to 1N range

ConsIt's a bit slow to apply and the brightening effect isn't perfect

Unless you're extremely sensitive to scents, it should be suitable for most users without strong likes or dislikes. - Sunscreen: It's great that this brightening moisturizer also provides sun protection, allowing you to complete your routine in one step. - Tone-evening: It evens out your complexion very naturally. I love that it doesn't leave a white cast and looks natural. Overall: This is a brightening moisturizer that's perfect for those wanting a natural-looking complexion enhancer that won't transfer to your mask in these times.
Cons- Tone-evening: As mentioned in the pros, the effect is very subtle. Those looking for a more dramatic brightening effect might be disappointed. The natural finish means it's not very noticeable in hand swatches. - Longevity: Although it has a matte finish, it doesn't seem to last very long. By afternoon, it tends to get quite oily.
TipDue to its limited staying power, I usually blot with oil-absorbing sheets when it starts to get greasy, then touch up with a sun cushion or brightening cushion compact.

It has a wonderfully powdery finish! I liked that it wasn't excessively drying either. It feels clean and fresh. Despite having a matte-like texture, I appreciated that it didn't pill at all.
ConsThe most crucial aspect of a brightening moisturizer is... well, brightening. While it does whiten and even out the skin tone, it's just okay. It feels like applying a sunscreen with some tone-evening properties. I think the wedding cream I used before was better (specifically in terms of its whitening effect).
TipIn the attached photo, I applied the product to half of my face, top and bottom. However, the difference isn't visible in the picture... In reality, there is a noticeable difference.

It's impressive that it manages to be both matte and hydrating at the same time. The fragrance was also delightful.
ConsThe brightening effect wasn't as pronounced as I had hoped (though this might not be an issue for everyone). When I tested it on the back of my hand, there was a noticeable difference, but I feel you'd need to apply quite a lot to achieve a significant brightening effect on your face. The texture was quite similar to sunscreen.

The way it naturally evened out my skin tone was fantastic. Plus, the affordable price is definitely a big plus!
ConsUnfortunately, it caused some small blemishes to appear, and the brightening effect didn't last very long.
TipFor best results, apply a thin layer after thoroughly hydrating your skin with your regular skincare routine.

It definitely made my complexion look prettier. As time passed, there was some richness, but it was minimal and felt superior compared to other brightening moisturizers or foundations.
ConsThe burning sensation was extremely intense... It was the first time I've ever experienced such a reaction from a brightening moisturizer. I ended up giving it away for free on an online marketplace after just one day... The burning sensation was so strong that it almost caused blemishes or inflammation that had previously healed to flare up again.

Cons* The grassy scent is off-putting * Doesn't give a completely matte feel, so you need to finish with powder * Comes off easily with water, so mask-wearing can sometimes leave marks where it's rubbed off. Also, after brushing teeth, the area around the mouth returns to original skin tone, giving a patchy look.. Poor longevity + not waterproof
Tip* If you like a matte finish, try applying Pond's blue powder as a final step
