ConsIt's too rich in oils and comes off easily. Its effectiveness in covering blemishes is practically zero

The pump packaging seemed more hygienic and safer, and the application was smooth, so overall it was a good product.
ConsI felt like my skin felt a bit congested, and I think those with oily or combination skin types might find the oil content a bit too much.

Normally, I don't wear makeup, and I only apply a tone-up sun cream. This product is a 'tone-up lotion', so it is much more fluid and applies more smoothly than tone-up creams. And since I applied it with a puff, the adherence and longevity were not bad, and there was almost no flaking or mask staining.
ConsWhen applied by hand, there was almost no feeling of adherence to the skin. Furthermore, it is extremely water-sensitive, so it seems quite cumbersome for men to use. Also, while it looks a bit brightening at first, it becomes a bit dull over time. I've never experienced darkening with tone-up creams before.
TipIf you apply it thinly with a puff, it's not bad for daily use.

It also has good coverage.
ConsWhile individual experiences may vary, for my oily skin, I felt a slightly whitish cast right after application for some time.
TipWhile full-fledged makeup like foundation may be burdensome, I would recommend this to men who want natural-looking skin brightening without the heavy feel.

First impression, the packaging is clean and easy to pump, so it was very convenient to use. A small amount can cover the entire face with just one pump, so it seems like it would be enough to apply it all over. In my opinion, the texture is good, and the right balance of moisture and oil, so there is no sticky or thick feeling after application. Another good thing is that since I'm a man, I was a bit concerned that it might look too shiny or white on my skin tone, but this product blends in naturally and provides good coverage. Moreover, the UV protection effect is high, so I think one pump before going out can provide sufficient sun protection and natural coverage.
ConsSome things I was a bit disappointed with while using it, The right balance of moisture and oil was there, but in the future, as it gets hotter and the humid summer comes, there might be a slightly stuffy feeling due to the oil content, so I think it would be better if there was a bit more moisture. However, it should be fine in other seasons besides the hot summer. Another downside, or it could be an advantage, is that the tone-up effect and coverage are natural, which is a plus for someone like me who likes natural looks, but those expecting a high tone-up effect might find it lacking.
TipWhen I first pumped it, the packaging was small and the pump opening was small, so I had to pump it several times, but surprisingly, a small amount can cover and provide coverage for the entire face, so it's better to just pump a small amount once or twice. Since the texture is good, it's better to apply it by dotting it on the face with your fingertips rather than spreading it all over with the whole palm, which can help achieve a more natural coverage and tone-up effect.

This is a great item for those men. Texture: It's more of a cream than a lotion. It's not a moisturizing cream, but has more of a BB cream feel. It has a nice, creamy texture. Application: It applies smoothly and blends in well. Tone-up: It provides a natural-looking tone-up effect, but you need to apply and pat it in properly. It feels moisturizing and nice to use. If foundation or BB creams feel too heavy for you, this product would be a great option.
ConsTo be honest, it's not really suitable to use as a lotion. It has more of a BB cream-like feel. And while it has a sunblock effect, to get the full benefits of a sunscreen, you need to apply the proper amount, but if you apply that much, it can look too white and cakey. It's best to use a separate sunscreen and tone-up lotion. However, if you don't want to use multiple products, this one could work as an adequate and decent option. I'll probably use this product when I want to go out casually.
TipSince it has a sunblock effect, you'll need to be diligent with cleansing. You should do a double cleanse, either using a foam cleanser followed by a second cleanse, or using a cleansing milk or water to ensure all residue is removed thoroughly.

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.ProsThe product applied smoothly and did not feel overly oily. It had a texture similar to a primer or makeup base, and a small amount spread evenly across the entire face. When I first squeezed it out, a creamy pink-peach color came out, giving a nice, bouncy feel. It seems to subtly conceal skin imperfections while providing a light tone-up effect.
ConsI applied for this product thinking it was a men's product, and it is also classified as a men's base makeup on the Hwahae app. However, how many men would be able to use this tone? I think the only men who could enjoy the tone-up effect of this product would be those with a skin tone similar to women's 21st shade. For those with a different skin tone, applying this product would result in an excessively pale, whitish appearance on the face. If you have reddish skin, it might even turn a pinkish-purple tone... Of course, I did not apply as much as a sunblock. This is not a sunblock, but a tone-up cream, so it should both tone up the skin and provide a nice, polished look. However, due to the excessive white cast and pink tone... I think this is a product that would heavily accentuate skin type differences.
TipThose with very fair, pink-toned skin may be able to use a small amount successfully.

The finish was also great, leaving a velvety, coated feel. It's a suitable product for the upcoming summer season. As a lotion formula, it applies softly and smoothly.
ConsThe fragrance was a bit disappointing. It had a strong chemical smell, which may be unpleasant for those who dislike such scents.
TipI found it worked well when applied to the neck area. While it can be used on the face alone, as someone who wears makeup, I noticed that this tone-up lotion gets covered up when I apply my makeup. So I've been using it on my neck as well to even out the tone, and it doesn't leave any visible residue, which I really like.

The spreadability is excellent. It applies smoothly without any stickiness or heaviness, yet it feels moisturizing. It spreads very thinly and evenly without any tackiness. The UV protection function is also good, so I don't need to apply a separate sunscreen, which is nice. There is hardly any mask transfer, which is great.
ConsNon-recyclable packaging Nowadays, there is a trend towards making packaging more recyclable due to environmental concerns, but it seems like no thought was given to that in this case, which is disappointing. The name 'tone-up lotion' could be better as 'tone-up sunscreen'. I'm not sure if I have any preconceptions, but simply calling it a 'tone-up lotion' makes me wonder if the sun protection efficacy is as good as a dedicated sunscreen, even though it does have good UV protection. Of course, I am quite sensitive to sun protection, so it may not be an issue for those who are not as sensitive.

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.ProsThis product is a lotion with tone-up functionality, offering high UV protection, whitening, and wrinkle improvement effects. It has a slightly thicker texture than a typical lotion, similar to a BB cream, with good spreadability. A small amount is sufficient to cover the entire face. This product would likely appeal to men who prefer an all-in-one solution. While some may see it as a downside, the fact that it washes off easily with just water makes it suitable for men who only cleanse with water daily.
ConsWhile this lotion contains tone-up and various other functions, like most all-in-one products, it is not perfect. The advantage of solving both lotion and tone-up needs at once is present, but it is not a complete lotion nor a complete tone-up product. The presence of light-reflecting properties can lead to a shiny appearance on the face when taking photos. For those with dry skin like myself, it may not adhere as well and can feel a bit lifted.
TipIt is recommended to use this as a supplementary product rather than a primary all-in-one, applying it after using a basic skincare routine or a lightweight product.
