The instant brightening effect is great, and I love the fragrance. It doesn't stain clothes either. After about a month, I started using it all over my body except my face, and my skin has noticeably brightened - it's gone up two shades! Only my face is darker now, haha. It doesn't cause any blemishes or itching, and it suits my skin really well. It's truly the best among brightening moisturizers!
ConsIf you get greedy with the amount or don't exfoliate dead skin cells before applying, it can lead to pilling or uneven application. Just use the right amount and make sure to exfoliate properly, and you'll see the best results.
TipI usually shower with soap, and I've noticed that when I occasionally use body wash, it tends to pill or clump. I recommend using soap when showering.

After using it, my skin feels soft and smooth. That's about it.
ConsIf you already have fair skin, don't expect the dramatic brightening effect you see on Facebook. It's supposed to be a transformation, but honestly, I'm not sure. It might work if you have darker skin. For those with fair skin, if you want to look that pale, just apply cream and sprinkle water on your face! But that's not great either... your makeup will slide off. Actually, it'll come off when you dry your face with a towel. You'll see the cream residue on your skin, and it'll transfer onto everything. If you apply sunscreen on your body, it'll pill like dead skin cells. This method is the worst. It feels uncomfortable too. Unlike the ads, if you rub it off thoroughly, you won't get the brightening effect. Especially if you have naturally fair skin, you might as well think of this as just a moisturizer you bought. It seems to work for those with darker skin tones. My sister has darker skin than me, and it really transformed her appearance. Looking at reviews, I saw people who applied it to half their body, and the difference was as stark as if they'd borrowed someone else's skin. I honestly had high hopes. But for 300ml at 38,000 won, meant to be used all over the body... I thought it was overpriced for what it does. They say it works better if you exfoliate before use, but exfoliating every time would irritate the skin and reduce hydration. I tried using it every 2-3 days for about 2 weeks with exfoliation, but the effect was similar with or without exfoliating. However, if you keep using this brightening moisturizer without exfoliating, no matter how well you rinse, something seems to build up on the skin, making sunscreen and makeup slide off. One difference I noticed is that water beads up in little droplets on the areas where I applied the cream. I thought it might be the bathroom lighting, so I compared it with my feet where I didn't apply the cream, but there wasn't much difference.
TipI'd recommend this for those with darker skin, but not so much for those with fair skin. For reference, I use Korean cosmetics in shades 17 to light 21, and for Estée Lauder, I use Shell (for a radiant look) or Porcelain/Warm Porcelain (for a natural look). If your complexion is similar, don't get your hopes up when buying this, or maybe just skip it altogether.

Among all the products I've bought based on social media recommendations, this ranks second in satisfaction, right after the Dyson Airwrap. ----- It's better than I expected... When I first used it, I had such high hopes that I was really disappointed to see how much it clumped. But it seems there's a knack to using it.
ConsI wrote the following on the first day of use, but it seems to get better the more I use it. Once you get the hang of applying it, there's less clumping on the neck and it looks more natural. ..........................,.,.., (First day review) It clumps and pills... There are white patches on my neck that don't match my skin tone... After first use, lumps formed on my neck. I had to wash it off with body wash and reapply, but it clumped again... Why do I always read these reviews and think, 'It won't happen to me, that person must be a special case... the rest of the reviews are all good,' deliberately ignoring the truth? I don't understand myself... It's frustrating.. People like me should absolutely not buy this.. If you're prepared to carefully blend out the clumps and not expect the smooth finish shown in Facebook photos, then go ahead and buy it.. I think it might work if you blend it well.. I just wish the photos could better convey the clumpy texture.. I want to go back to myself three days ago and tell me not to click that button.
TipWhen you apply it and rinse it off, don't press too hard with your fingertips. Gently sweep downwards to remove excess water, and when drying with a towel, just lightly dab to absorb moisture. This will leave your skin feeling soft and smooth.

I'm not sure if it's supposed to make you look whiter... The delivery was quick though. I bought it because all the reviews were 5 stars, so I thought it must be amazing.
ConsIt just gives a pale, unwashed look. It feels a bit slippery, and even if you apply it thickly, it tends to clump. I thought it would look more natural, but the moment you try to rub it in to blend, it starts pilling and coming off. Absolutely do not do this! It ends up looking patchy. In the end, I just want to scrub it off with body wash and get back to my natural skin tone. I'd rather have my dark skin than look unevenly pale and dirty. I spent over 70,000 won on two of these, and now... sigh.

If you apply too much, it can pill and slide off. You'll definitely notice your complexion brighten instantly, making it hard to stop using once you start. I only use a small amount on my face.
ConsI didn't realize it contained sunscreen and accidentally slept with it on. While it didn't cause any blemishes, it's actually a wash-off product... When applied as the final step in skincare routine, it pills under sunscreen, making it impossible to apply SPF properly.
TipRemember to use just a small amount!
