The texture is delightfully rich yet sets to a velvety finish, making it perfect not just for the face, but also for the neck and arms without any patchiness. What I love about this brightening moisturizer is that it's a great alternative to foundation - it applies thinly and evenly without leaving an overly stark white cast. The way it absorbs into the skin is definitely its strong point!
ConsI'd recommend this more for those looking to even their skin tone rather than those after a radiant glow from their brightening moisturizer.
TipHere's a personal tip: try mixing it with a slightly darker foundation and your regular moisturizer - it works wonders!

The scent is similar to Sulwhasoo's, noticeable only during application and fades once fully absorbed. I love how it moisturizes without leaving an oily residue, finishing with a soft, matte texture. As a brightening moisturizer, it focuses more on evening out the skin tone rather than concealing blemishes.
ConsI wouldn't recommend this for those with redness-prone skin! Also, it lacks sun protection, so you'll need to apply sunscreen separately.
TipAfter using this brightening moisturizer, a light dusting of powder is all you need for noticeably improved complexion.

Application I'm satisfied with how it absorbs! It spreads evenly without patchiness and has a slightly firm finish. It's firm, not sticky! 2. Hydration Usually, brightening moisturizers make my skin feel dry, but not this one! While it doesn't deeply hydrate, it gives a firming sensation? Thanks to this, my makeup doesn't lift, pill, or flake off at all. 3. Brightening effect It brightens the skin tone naturally without looking artificial. Some brightening moisturizers can look cement-like, but this one definitely looks natural. It's great as a makeup base for those who experience darkening during makeup application! My skin darkening has significantly reduced since using this. 4. Coverage As it's a brightening moisturizer, the coverage is minimal to none. However, it does seem to slightly neutralize dull areas due to the brightening effect. 5. Irritation Despite my blemish-prone skin, this didn't cause any new breakouts! No tingling sensation either. I was concerned about applying it during the day due to the vitamin content, but I didn't feel any irritation! 6. Repurchase intention Although I received this as part of The Hwahae Testers, I'd consider purchasing if the price is reasonable! The last brightening moisturizer I liked was from KSNY, but it was a bit drying. I might buy this as it prevents darkening and I like the firming finish.
ConsThe downside is that it doesn't have sun protection... It seems to contain vitamin ingredients, and as it's a brightening moisturizer typically applied in the morning before makeup, the lack of sun protection means we need to apply sunscreen on top of it. As I have blemish-prone skin, I use a mineral sunscreen with minimal white cast and low irritation, but sometimes it feels a bit excessive with the double brightening effect. Other than that, I didn't find any drawbacks.
TipFor those who've experienced base makeup darkening! If you apply brightening moisturizer as the last step of skincare, followed by sunscreen and then base makeup, you'll definitely notice less darkening! When your skin tans in summer, it might look more toned down, but using a brightening moisturizer will make you look radiant. It might be a bit more hassle, but give it a try!

The brightening moisturizer effect is definitely impressive. When applied, there's no flaking or emphasis on dead skin cells, and it absorbs quickly. It goes on smoothly, making it great for layering foundation on top. Even a tiny amount covers the whole face, and when I use it before makeup, it evens my skin tone, giving my entire complexion a radiant look. The texture is as light as sunscreen, making it an all-around satisfying product.
ConsThe main drawback of most brightening moisturizers is the lack of UV protection, which is disappointing. There seems to be a bit of a white cast, so you need to apply only a very small amount.
TipThe ingredients are great, and it's hydrating, so it creates an excellent base for makeup! If you're using it on its own, I recommend applying sunscreen first.

Perfect for this weather when you can skip foundation. It even lightly covers dark spots. The fragrance is subtle and pleasant, not overpowering at all.
ConsThe downside of this product is the lack of sun protection. No matter how closely I looked at the ingredients, I couldn't find any UV-blocking components.
TipBe careful not to apply too much, or you might end up looking ghostly pale. Use it in moderation for the best results.
