I've never experienced such quick results before. It's affordable and the brightening effect is undeniable.
ConsPerhaps due to my dry skin, I noticed it felt a bit dehydrating after a while. It might be more suitable for use during the summer months.
TipUse this when you need an immediate boost to even out your complexion.

This brightening moisturizer is perfect for when your skin is tanned or when you want to look radiant. It instantly brightens and gives you a natural-looking complexion.
ConsWhile it's a good brightening moisturizer, it's disappointing that it doesn't have any additional features. It would be great if it also had sun protection.
TipIt dries to a matte finish, so if you have dry skin, make sure to apply a good base skincare routine first. This will help you achieve that soft, luminous skin.

ConsIt's my first time trying this, but it's just okay. Maybe because I didn't have high expectations, it seems about what I thought it would be.
TipI tested it on the back of my hand after applying hand cream, and it feels moisturizing with a nice glow. I think if you use it as part of your skincare routine, it could provide good hydration.

It naturally brightens your complexion! People always think I have naturally fair skin when I go out wearing this cream. 2. The skin tone is beautiful. It really gives your complexion a lovely, peachy glow. 3. Easy to cleanse. While I always wash thoroughly, this is easier to remove than other foundations or cushions, which is convenient. 4. Versatile use. You can apply it not just on your face, but also on areas like your neck to create a natural, fair-skinned look as if it's your original skin tone.
ConsThe downside is that you need to apply it very meticulously. There were times when I rushed and applied it carelessly, only to find it unevenly applied around the edges of my face. So now I make sure to apply it carefully and double-check.
TipWhen my skin gets a bit oily, the finish doesn't look as nice, so I dust some powder on my T-zone. I'm already on my 8th bottle...

After applying, my skin feels so soft and natural! There's another product called 'Rice Cake Cream' or something similar, but its scent was really off-putting. This one, however, smells lovely! I highly recommend it!
ConsThere's nothing to dislike about it... The only downside is that I used it up so quickly. What a shame!
TipFor maximum effect, apply this as your first base layer before concealer or foundation. It works twice as hard!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros1. Brightening effect Instantly brightens the complexion upon application, concealing small blemishes and evening out skin tone by a shade! 2. Suitable for oily skin Unlike most brightening moisturizers that can make oily skin greasy, this one isn't overly hydrating, making it easy for those with oily skin to use (e.g., leaves skin feeling fresh and matte). 3. Long-lasting results With consistent use, it genuinely lightens the skin tone. As mentioned in the product description, regular application leads to a noticeably fairer complexion. 4. Ingredients The formula boasts good ingredients. Unlike other brightening moisturizers that require cleansing, this one is safe enough to wear overnight. 5. Easy to dispense The tube packaging makes it simple to control the amount used. 6. Fragrance A subtle peach scent that lifts your mood while applying.
Cons1. Absorption As mentioned in the pros, it's not very hydrating. The cream feels slightly dry, which affects how well it absorbs. It tends to sit on the skin rather than sinking in quickly. 2. Emphasizes dead skin cells Even when you don't typically have issues with dead skin cells, this product seems to make them more noticeable. It significantly emphasizes flakiness.
TipWith consistent, regular use, your complexion truly becomes noticeably fairer!

ConsLike most brightening moisturizers, if you apply too much, it can leave a white cast and sit a bit on the skin.
TipYou'll need to be careful with the amount you use.

I love how it leaves my complexion naturally radiant.
ConsAs someone with oily skin, it felt fine immediately after application, but as time passed, my face became quite greasy. Apart from that issue, it was pretty good!
TipIf you have oily skin, I'd recommend setting this with a light dusting of powder to help control shine!

Baeksulgi has a bit of an odor ㅜㅜ The Hwahae Trial Reviewer is an extremely thin formula, so it's super easy to apply, and the absorption is incredibly fast. And the most important thing! It turns really natural-looking white. The more you apply, the whiter it gets, so I can control the level of whiteness, which I really like ㅎㅎ With foundation, you have to worry about it getting on your collar, but this gets absorbed and never leaves a trace! I'll only be using this from now on ㅜㅜ
ConsIt's my bare face~ I sometimes use it when I'm telling a lie, but if I go to bed without cleansing, pimples pop up, and I get sad.. ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
TipIn the summer, I apply it on my legs when I wear skirts or shorts, and on the backs of my hands when I do my nails! It's truly usable everywhere, and the effects are so good, I'm so satisfied with it!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI've been using Whiteholic since I was in 7th grade, and now I'm in 11th grade - so it's been 5 years! Of course, I don't use it every single day. Let me summarize the pros: 1. Whitening Efficacy I was really satisfied with the results. The product is amazing - as soon as I apply it, the whitening effect is immediately visible. My skin becomes brighter and more radiant, even though I'm already a light 21 shade. But for those with darker skin tones like 23, the effects may not be as noticeable. 2. Longevity Even the biggest fans of this cream admit that the longevity is not great. The lasting power is really poor... But since the formula is gentle and focused on functionality, I guess expecting great longevity is too much to ask. It lasts about an hour. Using a good skincare base helps it last a bit longer, but this is inherently a product with low staying power. 3. Fragrance The fragrance is a subtle peach scent, not artificial-smelling, but not particularly pleasant either. It's kind of an awkward peach aroma. I'm not a big fan of the fragrance. 4. Price It seems like Whiteholic is a small brand that couldn't help but overprice their product at launch. When it first came out, they were selling the tiny amount for around $30, and then went crazy with social media marketing since it was selling well. But now, you can find it for around $5 on sites like Wemakeprice - isn't that crazy? It's kind of heartbreaking. 5. Pore Clogging Hmm, Whiteholic is gentle and soft, but not super moisturizing. As a dry-skinned person, I find that white flaky bits get stuck in my pores after about 10 minutes of application. It's really gross. But for those with super tight, small pores, this might not be an issue at all. 6. Coverage As you know, this product has absolutely no coverage at all.
ConsOh, I ended up including the downsides in the pros section as I was writing. Let me summarize the skin types I wouldn't recommend this product for - dry skin types really shouldn't go for it, as it's not very moisturizing at all. And to give an overall rating: Longevity: 🐸 Coverage: 🐸 Gentleness: 🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸 Spreadability: 🐸🐸🐸🐸
TipYou really have to buy the Whiteholic when W.Lab has sales on sites like Wemakeprice or Coupang. I was able to get it for 5,000 won with free shipping - can you believe that? It's crazy how I used to buy it for 30,000 won, crying, when it first came out. It feels like just yesterday!
